    I don`t know why 3 exlamation points were neeed for a fight which isn`t happening.In BN it also said it could be Sartison which is not great but would be passable imo.The man who must no be named promoted Calzagae-Manfrado which was a terrible fight
     
  3. The fight was apparently not accepted by manfredos team

    Yep UP.I accept that for what its worth,which is nothing,Im in the minority.From what I can gather most boxing fans wouldn't mind it being Magee.Just doesnt do anything for me.Ive liked Magee over the years but feel he's been somewhat of a gatekeeper lately,which is maybe just what they want as Groves has another one planned for later.Personally,Id rather see the Anderson return.

    The card is less than six weeks away, it's gonna be a a **** opponent (for a ppv chief support) whether it's Manfredo or not.

    If an English{???} team was in the final might be tempted not to get the PPV as Im a bit strange,the Froch/Kessler return while decent isn't exactly killing me with anticipation.Like the whole card to be decent.Say Paul Smith was fighting Manfredo and Groves with Anderson,even,plus the Cleverly fight Id think it was worth 15 quid.Is that what they're gonna charge by the way?

    Manfredo lol ****ing hell
    British fighters step up and fight someone good then fight someone **** its always been the way
    Even with DeGale he fought that guy Abraham fought, then he fought some **** guy who hardly did anything for the whole fight
    This is why I don't want Brook to win a world title because there's no way they will make him fight the tough people at 147, he will come home n probably fight Khan then his mandatories if they are ****

    British boxing seems to be in decline. We have a whole load of decent talent but all that seems to happen is they get built up to be cannon fodder.

    Groves v Manfredo is pathetic.

    Awful fight. Manfredo shouldn't even be at 168. He is one of those fighters who does well to build a winning record on average wins and then cash in on the Calzaghe, Chavez type fights. Wash, rinse, repeat.
