    Yeah he's decent, he needs to drop the hard man scouser imagine in the build up to fights, no need for it and it makes him look like a scum bag which he ain't and obviously has some intelligence and can speak well.

    I'd probably support him a lot more in his fights if he acted like he does when he's being a pundit, all that skally brain dead **** doesn't impress me but maybe he needs that to get up for the fight, puts me off.. he sounds like one of them nuggets you see out on the street that need a fooking slap.

    But yeah, pundit he's sound like.

    rawling is the type of commentator i dont like.
    during saunders v ryder he spent almost half of round 1 talking about which famous faces were in the crowd....and the round started well with action happening which he ignored...barry jones to his credit when he got the chance he talked about what was happening in the ring.

    i'd like to hear old style radio commentary...barry mcguigan started out as a great commentator with a satellite channel called screensport before he became a pundit.

    too much talk about things not directly happening in fights these days by commentators

    Ignore the drones mate. Floyd Mayweather is a fraud according to the chumps on the internet.

    Whats the plan vs Stevenson? He looks like a limited banger who's feasted on American level hypejobs to me, you aint gonna go toe to toe with that boy are you? box him at range? :huh

    Best of luck will be rooting for you. Call him a fookin rat at the presser and you'll have the entire country behind you :good

    Being serious Bellew could actaully beat Stevenson he aint all that.

    Kovalev is the main man at 12 stone 7

    Tony wish you all the best in the world mate, just get frustrated with the level of opponents you have had.

    Glad you have a title shot, but your going to to proper raise your game if you want to win. I hope u do !!

    Thank you. The level of opponents I've had has increased in every fight since moving IMO, McIntosh (Former European Champion) , Miranda (World title challenger), Bolonti (Unbeaten in 7 years and WBC #5) then Chilemba (WBC #3 and was as good unbeaten) nobody wanted to face him and after me boxing dreadful in the first fight and completely gassing after 7 rounds through exhaustion I still went in with him 8 weeks later and just bullied him even though many picked me to lose and said he was far better than me...

    I'm happy with how my career has progressed, you have to remember I've had to learn as I've gone along, I was thrown into a world title fight from domestic level.. I learnt and IMO have improved with every step, this time I've earned a world title fight instead of being given one cos of some stupid press conference and cos the fact I could shift a load of tickets..:good
