Another defeat for the Lionhearts last night in what has been a pretty poor campaign. Yes, it was a hard group but to win just 3 matches out of 12 is a shocking return. Does anyone know why the squad is so poor this season? A number of boxers on the Podium Squad were left out, was there some sort of dispute?
They had quite a few ijuries this series and overall you just get the sense that some of the fighters didn't want to compete
Yeah I knew about Josh Taylor being injured, was surprised not to see Selby though, don't know if he was in the same boat.
thye put guys in there who aren't even in the gb development squad like Joshua buatsi. they put weak line ups out and had somereally ****e foreigners
nah Thomas whittaker-hart, and scott forrest are better yet true about the second sentence, a joined up british and irish team would be really strong.. Conlan, Barnes, Ward, Donelly Fowler, Selby, Taylor, Joyce, Evans, Fitzgerald, Bateson really hope paddy barnes turns pro after rio,, he's good enough to be fast tracked Lomachenko style
Ok but its iirrelevent cause britian has really crrap light heavyweights and heavyweights.. buatsi looked awful in the ABAs nice list but Donnelly over Fitzgerald and Evans? I'd have Fitzgerald he's looking really good lately
