Those cuts though! Lukes gonna have a lot of work done to patch em up. Could be tricky. Hopefully he comes back on here and talks to his fans now the fights done and dusted and he will have the time on his hands...he will be out for a while IMO. At one stage I thought he'd hurt his right hand too but maybe I'm wrong about that. On a separate note Cummings has a head like a concrete block, doesn't he. He's a bull. For Carl it's prob Valdez or selby in August. Hope it's Valdez.
Luke needs a rest after a distance fire like that.... Hopefully his next will be against a top European opponent... I was going say hopefully headlining in Dublin but that's not possible with the ban down there
Has Cummings had anything to say about the fight, Fra? He was incredibly brave and tough. By all accounts a likeable guy too. Never gave up walking forward soaking up flush shots. BuHead like a brick! But he couldn't get his own shots off at all....must be very disheartening for him.
It's not funny, moorser. That protest is hurting us all, especially our boxers. But MTK had to take a stand on a point of principle, I suppose. Hope it's not stopping Luke from posting here. There was also talk of a betting coup. That's happened before with conlon, hasn't it?
Where is Ryan Burnett? That's twice this year a major rival of his ...tete.... Has fought in Burnettts hometown. But no sign of the local hero??? The silence from Burnett has been deafening ....and disappointing. He's not running scared, is he?
Hes almost a certainty to enter the bantam WBSS. So if Warren and Tete see Burnett as the end goal, they have to enter it as well. That fight on saturday won't have done Tetes stock much good at all.
I agree Burnettt is ahead of Tete at the minute,in terms of reputation,what he has achieved and the caliber of opponent he has faced, WBSS is the way to go for the top fighters in any division (the cruiserweight one has shown us that) Warren says Tete isn't entering unfortunately as I believe they would both be seeded and meet in the final,
I rate Tete highly, him v Burnett is a 50/50 imo. But if Warren doesnt enter Tete in WBSS (which looks the case) he can't really use the Burnetts ducking Tete line. This is the perfect oppertunity for someone like Tete, someone whos extremely talented with little fanbase and generally avoided.
Thanks for the support lads. Body is good no injuries shoulder and hands perfect feel like could go back training tomorrow. Eyes will need few weeks stitches went in well tidy job so hopefully no issues. Clash heads caused both cuts. I’ll take another week off start back ticking over. But buzzing to get back to gym , still loads to improve but learning loads under Pete and the pressure and stress factor is off with work not a factor anymore. Really enjoying boxing again and could see that in ring. All credit to Cummings as my shoulder and hand problem completely sorted and was dropping guys with those same right hands in sparring with 18 oz gloves and head gaurds. Loads still to improve on but be big fights from now on please god. End of August will be my next date
good man luke... we all knew u had it in yea.... hopefully the next fight will be even bigger than the last
