The guy Flintoff beat just won vs a guy with a 16-3 record

  1. Never thought the bloke's career would recover and he is very lucky that Flintoff got up from the single punch that he was contractually allowed to throw that evening.

    Wrecking the pre-determined documentary script would have finished him

    laughably bad fix. cant believe people actually bet on dawson

    The way he 'stopped' punching after the knockdown should give everybody all the evidence they need

    If Freedie beat Dawson in his first fight he will only improve. Time for Freddie to lace up his gloves and fight someone easy for him maybe Martin Rogan. He can take the Irish fella inside 6 then who knows? Skys the limit

    Lol it was embarassing to watch, I was under no illusion that Dawson could have knocked Flintoff out any time he wanted, I think he only threw one punch that landed clean and it had Flintoff down.

    Course it was fixed. Only strange thing was that the bookies had the fight so even, made a nice little packet on Flintoff that night.

    That is 'merely' an opinion, you need to define 'fix' for starters...

    The most embarrassing thing about that fight was Barry McGuigan blowing his load when the result was announced.
    Cringeworthy stuff indeed.
