give me this list of fighters fighting under MMA rules from the UK? have you not seen Hopkins and Ward fight??
we're not perfect by any stretch, but we are by and far the fairest place on the planet. no contest. :deal
Clev doesn't like to travel? he's already fought in the US. it's very funny and ironic reading an American writing this. the BBBofC will be selecting the judges and ref. it's illegal for the promoters to select them... unlike in the states. we always have a neutral ref as well when a Brit is fighting an international fighter. again, unlike the US. atsch
god you talk some serious rubbish! why would a promoter take a fight for one of his fighters if he thought he couldn't win?? they didn't need to take this fight you know. :-(
i had Glazkov vs Scott a draw. Scott was too inactive to win that one. if it wasn't for the arm injury sustained by Chambers, he would have won. but i gave it to Adamek by one point. Cunningham did win the second fight with Adamek by 2 points though.
Assassin, I'm a Brit, from Manchester, and I'll be Cardiff on the 17th, tho with unfortunately divided loyalties. I wasn't actually criticising Clev, just pointing out how he'll be percieved by HBO and the US audience. I'm aware of the selection rules for title fights, but also aware that money talks, both overtly and behind the scenes. In fact, the very point I was making was that doubters should have less concern over selection since domestic interests would be balanced by the money from across the pond. For what it's worth I've always supported Clev, though in the Bellew fight it was as much to do with the more local rivalry, but in Kovalev I sniff a truly exciting contender on the world stage. The very fact that Clev and Big-Wank have made this fight has gone some way to raising Clevs prestige in my eyes, because it was starting to look like he (of course I mean Mr Wank) was avoiding the big fights. I've said before elsewhere, if Cleverly can outbox Kovalev over 12 rounds then I will be more than willing to annoint him as the second coming, I simply don't see it though. I think Wanks protected Clev too much, possibly to the detriment of his career, - but then who am I to judge. Listen, as I said before, I'm gonna be in Cardiff on the 17th, and I'm hoping to see a fantastic fight. Both Kovalev and Clev bring something the other hasn't seen before, and that makes for the best kinda mix-up in my book. Oh yeah. Call me a yank again an' you're fukkin dead
it just looked like you were implying that British fights have dodgy officials selected for their guy to win. they always have neutrals. yeah, it hasn't gone great for Clev over the past 18 months, but that isn't his or wa55ens fault. they've tried getting Shuminov and Hopkins in the ring but to no avail. they then wanted the new kid on the block in Kovalev, and he's signed up. i'm sure both Wa55en and Clev are confident. as am i. it's been noted to never call you a Yank again.
Check your scores, Alexander v Mathysse was only 10 rounds explain your score. I do agree Mathysse won but maybe I had it 5 rounds each. the knockdown was the decider. I can also see 6-4 Mathysse, but he didn't win 7 rounds. I defy you to find 8 rounds Mathysse won vs Judah. Broner v Paulie was no robbery. I agree with your other fights though.
Are you by chance ethnic Georgian who was born in the U.K.? Your screenname gives that impression, hunch!
