    some good footage there. that eurosport commentator is a complete muppet. i cant remember his name but jesus he hasnt a clue!!! what was that **** at the start of the 1st clip about ireland and northern ireland? is he trying to say that andy lee is not supported in the north? does he not know that amateur boxing is an all ireland sport? clown!!!

    i liked billy walshes village people look with the vest and moustache :good

    Steve Holdsworth was the commentator was he not? I think people struggle to get to grips with the way things are now.

    I think he reckons its all bowler hats and balaclavas. Far be it from us to be able to get along and support fighters regardless of where they come from.

    Sure the left handers from up north should love Andy Lee what with him having a beard like jesus and all

    Sad to see ***an go. He was always great to watch, challenges any other boxer around in terms of heart and desire, and seems like a good guy too. Delighted he's got a job doing what he loves. Thanks for all the great nights. :thumbsup

    Talking of balaclavas - here is a guy that was training in Andy Lee's gym in New York - by the way he was slashing the next of that boxing dummy with a 'rambo knife' - seriously!!

    Steve holdswirth that's right. I remember we were on a bus going to the airport after the commonwealth championships in Glasgow and he was on it too. He was talking that much shite micky Hawkins was making faces behind his back. Childish I know but funny none the less :)
