    If your aunt had a knob she'd be your uncle.
     
  3. If Terrytibbs wasn't a coward he'd turn up when he say he would.

    But he is a coward thus rendering it irrelevant.

    He's 6ft 1 be interesting to see if he'd bang harder moving up in weights.

    He can crack at times, but he has one way of fighting which he is good at and that's jab jab move, jab jab right hand. His foot speed and reflexes and timing are all very good so he doesn't ever change it. You don't get many 'slick' fighters who are bangers.
    Skeete is a good Euro level fighter, but will get outclassed at world level. Eggington is a decent fighter but showed little adaptability, and was beaten by the better man.

    One potential interesting future match up will be Ahmet Patterson VS Bradley Skeete, I like 'patty cake' alot and think he'd have the tools to outhustle and outbox Skeete.

    No doubt if he could bang then he'd be world level as he can box and if he could bang he would also not be really boring to watch. But he's not got a bang so he will be involved in some really boring 12 round championship fights from now on, unless he gets clipped that is.

    Hasn't really changed his style since the ams just honed it, not being a natural banger, he would have to set himself to throw anything of substance and that would takeaway some of his footwork or quick exit.

    How far do you think he can go mate ?
    Do you think he'd be better moving up in weight ??

    Would be silly to move up in weight now

    Yeah you're probably right, opportunities should open for him after that win and I'm sure he knows his own body best with regards to moving up.

    He is big enough to box at LMW when he has got as far as he has at WW, you might laugh but he might even get a shot at Liam Smiths WBO when he moves up as it would be a easy fight to make.
