    He sprinted to the ring, tried to jump over the ropes and fell on his arse and throughout the fight looked as if his mind was elsewhere and he needed to go to sleep.

    Looked as if he had been drinking to me. I know he is not always motivated for fights but that was not even half the Monte we saw give Messi a good beating.

    The running to the ring bit, much like Enzo, was trying to build up a bit of courage I think. Falling on his arse probably helped build up his anger too.

    He didn't look any odder during the fight though, and I've seen Monte fight about 6 times now (Wlad, Mesi, Guinn, Rahman, Fields and Haye). He was throwing pretty fiercely when he had the chance, but mainly Haye shucking and jiving all over the place all the time made it difficult. Monte clearly was looking for the overhand right but didn't have much chance to use it.

    I always used to worry Eubank would come a cropper when he did that, and I seem to recall Hamad falling once...

    The ropes were very loosely drawn...and he's a big boy...so...you do the maths.

    surely - is it against boxing rules to come into the ring under the influence of booze.

    Monte sprinted to the ring - he must of been shitting himself
