    That should help him. What career is he thinking of taking up?

    It all adds up now, that is what they were going on about his school for.

    well done!

    they should make him take the same tests in 10 years to see the effects of fighting on his maths skills. its a strange choice of profession i suppose because the way tony bellew makes it sound, cleverly wont know his times tables after they fight

    How does the grading work? In scotland it goes like 6 to 1, 1 being the best for Standard grades, so is a 2:2 like second best?

    I bet Nicky Piper is ripping up his script for his next fight. Who knows he might even have to talk about his boxing ability :shock:

    I think 2:2 is the bottom pass grade but he did maths which is hard as **** and he was British, C'wealth and Euro champ. Cant knock him

    Great achievement. I'm working towards it. Just finished my Maths A-levels. Hopefully I'll get there ;)

    2.2 is basically a C grade.

    2-2 is the equivilent of a C. Would have thought Frank would have a word with them and get it bumped up. He was at a very good uni to.

    I have heard he is planning to move to London and start working with Jimmy Tibbs. I remember a post a few weeks back which said they cant see him improving now he is full time but I think thats crap. We will see allot more from him in the next year as he pushes for a World Title.

    I got a 2-1 btw

    I think a third is the lowest you can get that is still a pass.

    So you have a first class, 2:1, 2:2 and third class. Anything lower is a fail.

    A 2:2 isnt bad considering he was studying maths.

    Although today i just got a 2:1 in history! :thumbsup

    Glad he can concentrate on his boxing now, as studying for a degree takes alot out of some1
