    Nevin has all the skills. Maybe needs to work in his fitness.

    So.... the question is....can Nevin still deliver at world level? Has he time? He has the skill and the will to win. But does he have the will to PREPARE to win?
    He’s with Jim McDonnell right?

    Glad to see Nevin cracking on with his career now.

    He still has time to make a run at the top level.

    Hearing spike v munguia is on!
    Munguia could outwork spike with youth and energetic workrate. But make no mistake about it, spike can punch and Jaime has serious defense deficiencies. Very hard to know how this will go. Spike has a real chance here if he is fully fit. Fitness will be critical here.

    Not to be harsh on the guy, but I don't think he chokes per se.

    I just don't think hes on that world class level.

    Agree with this he talks himself into these situations brilliantly but just doesn't have the goods to back it up.
    Billy Joe Eubank jr. Lemieux all schooled him different ways.
    He does have a strong punch if not a take out punch so you never know but I would be very surprised I think the extra weight will suit the Mexican

    I would have fancied spikes chances a lot more if munguia was forced to drain down to 154.

    So true Marty.
    Andy lee appears to be one of the robber gang that robbed Ryder. He’s turning into a sky shill. Backing the sky money fighter smith and throwing Ryder under the bus. Shameful from him.

    The fix was in. Disgusting that our own Andy lee played a part in it. He sells out for the Sky £!. I hope all right thinking Irish boxing fans will join me in condemning Andy’s sell out treachery against John Ryder tonight. Absolutely disgusting behavior from Andy “sell out” Lee. did ye hear the shyte out of him? Quote:,“smith landed the cleaner punches”!!!
    Andy is an intelligent man. He knows. That wasn’t a mistake. Remember that next time you think of Andy “sell out” Lee.

    I have to say the robbery of John Ryder against Callum Smith last night has me raging. They were all in on it. Ref, judges, promotion, commentary team. UK boxing is seriously corrupt.

    Yea its a joke, and not even a mention of a rematch. If the twitter brigade complain enough it might make an impression on Hearn
