  2. Correct, my mistake. Like I said he was jive talking jibber jabber and stuttering like an idiot. He could barely get a coherent sentence out.

    I love the guy and I am not surprised guys that dont like him!!!

    I love his entrances - they are shiit, but I love them because they are funny - he isnt trying to be serious, its a parody and a wind up - obviously it works!

    Come on - comin in on a push scotter! wears a Spurs shirt (when he is a Chelsea fan) the nicknames etc - its a pizz take!

    Some people said he is boring - he aint, sure the McDonagh fight was worse than watchin a kettle boil but was he boring against Hall?? infact his six previous fights ended in a stoppage!

    Here is a picture that I took at the Hall weigh in and encapsulates everything I love about him (and everything others hate)

    I would like to see the clown act dropped when the first bell rings and a little more venom wouldnt go a miss either!

    smalls very awkward, bit of a nightmare for most really, but i dont think the yanks would take to him to be honest, he could go far and should be inline for a title shot soon although i see him losing against the big guns.

    what happened to the rhodes fight in the end?

    He is a pretender. Bit dopey if anything...also a bit punchy or thick after hearing him speak in interview last week. As a man i got time for him seems a decent guy. I don't take his antics serious in slightest..he's good for british boxing imo.

    As a boxer he's ok has good attributes,Awkward style and could be made into a very classy fighter. I think the Hall win gets a bit overated imo. Hall that night was made to order.

    Hall should of boxed better but he went in for war and let Smalls antics get best of him. The finish was classy but lets face it when a guy is swinging for fences with blood streaming into his eyes i expect most ''decent'' fighters to knock the guy out.

    What i did like about Small that night was the gameplan from the ring walk to the finish i give him his due on that.

    Has very poor fundamentals. His performance against McDonagh was diabolically bad.

    Yeah I wholeheartedly agree, boxing needs characters and Small is certainly a character

    Agree with you guys who think he has talent but needs to stick to the plan and concentrate while in the ring. To be honest, I don't mind some of the antics. I rememeber watching one of his interviews on the old Bunce shows on setanta. Can't remember exactly what he said but something along the lines of he does it fun and boxing needs more characters. He needs to put in a good performance against Webb though.

    Small is an absolute ****, however he does posses some smooth boxing skills. His trainer needs to give him a smack and make him nuckle down and get on with the boxing.
