    There has been lots of positive things said about him.

    Hopefully we will get to see more of what he is about if his fight on the undercard of Khan v Kristjansen is shown - he should be at home on ITV as apparently he auditioned for their X Factor Show!

    He has appeared in boxing news a couple of times, they seem impressed.

    I have not seen enything of him myself I do not think but the noise being made about him sounds positive.

    Cool article that on Crolla, but I would say that because I wrote it.

    It was well written but personally I would have added that Pacy was a double ABA champion himself.

    It may be well written but some of these internet writers seem to have big egos!

    it seemed like crolla froze on the night, but he is still young so he will learn from this defeat

    Setback for Crolla.

    His opponents record Won 4 Lost 8 Drew 1 = 13.

    Think Youssef Al Hamidi was coming off the back of 3 losses so a VERY good result for him.

    Shows you can't just judge a boxer by his record. :good

    Don't judge the Syrian on his stats. The man can fight. Gave John Simpson and Michael Hunter hell in his last two outings.

    Crolla will learn from this. He is a bright talent and will deffo go on to better things. I hope so anyway coz he's a really nice kid and I would like to see him do well.

    Keep your chin up Anthony , treat it as experience son. You will deffo go on from here.

    Al Hamidi has won more fights than his record suggests. He's been unlucky with the judging.

    Crolla will bounce back. He is potentially world class and this will only make him stronger.
