    Just watched Anthony Ogogo on sky

    The lad talks copious amounts of the brown stuff :D

    Looking forward to his next appearance on Family Fortunes

    Never IMO

    Even worse than Pluke Campbell who will only win one with Eddie buying a soft target.

    He must have a good agent though. I've practically seen him on every celebrity-related talk show/game show there is - mastermind, strictly, a question of sport, the chase, loads of others

    Would rather be a Celeb than a boxer.

    He should concentrate on boxing.

    He looksEuropean level to me

    I doubt Ogogo would have got passed British level - Ryder and Blackwell etc would have worked him IMO.

    He's got the looks so the celebrity route makes sense.

    He doesn't seem to be cut out for the professional game, seems too settled, too civilized, and prone to injury too. He should have stayed amateur for the Rio Olympics, and he'd still be relevant in his sport and able to cash in on the endorsements even more.

    World champion of the reality shows. I remember he said he hurt his shoulder and would be out for months and ended up going on strictly a few weeks later looool

    He will win the British and maybe a European but he gets found out at World level. Ogogo aint that good imo.

    True, that. I've never been convinced by Ogogo: he seems far more interested in the limelight and the other stuff outside of boxing, than in boxing itself.

    I suspect Ogogo's level will be British -- maybe European at a push. Ask yourself how he would fare against John Ryder, Tommy Langford, or Jason Quigley.
