    It’s possible to dislike a fighter without being jealous

    It used to be brilliant with Helen and Tim, the show was very close to the bone and made it a success. However with the shaming of LAD culture that’s gone now and won’t be back anytime soon.

    I think him and Chisora are close mates and have been for 15-20 years.

    Yeah I think they are pals, but the OTT reaction when he's fighting is just painful to watch. He tries it with Joshua also which is just as cringe.

    I do find the Joshua one cringe but not the Chisora one as I think it's his way of backing his pal.

    Yeah I don't get all the dislike for him on here. He's no Carl Froch.

    Froch is tongue in cheek though, Bellew is deadly serious. There's a clear distinction there.

    Bellew is the definition of disingenuous. He plays to the gallery, I don't even think he knows who he truly is himself.

    You're going to hate this but I'm a huge Froch fan too. These World Champions eh. Why do we like them when there are so many flag shagging losers out there to love ?

    I just finished the audiobook version of this.

    Anthony narrates it himself and whilst it's not bad, I think's it's written by the same ghostwriter who wrote the recent Hearn and Fury books.
