Agree. It was just a different era in the 90s - other than maybe Bowe and Lewis, and Tyson becoming more of a circus act for money, people didn't...
I know it's not exactly the point he was making but it would be hard to imagine, in this day an age, a show called "True Brit" like Lewis and...
I guess, getting nearer back on topic, a partisan audience is about the only one that'll turn up for Conlan now given his recent form. And...
Yep. Didn't feel the need to live in Celtic colours unlike a lot of their fans. In fact he saw out his career wearing pink! Other than his boxing...
Agree - and it would have the side-effect of Warrington claiming he's top-drawer again and deserving of another title shot, trip to Vegas, etc....
I've no problem with Conlan basing himself on a particular audience, it's a professional sport. I don't have to like the basis for it or Conlan...
Gill KO 7. Frankly looked a bit early but he always had that in him from the start. He was 3 and about to be 4 rounds up on my card.
6th to Gill - Conlan came back stronger but Gill had been dominating for two minutes and didn't looked troubled at the fightback. 9-10 8-10 9-10...
Another one for Conlan mostly because Gill sat back. The workrate is there from Conland but there's not much power in it. 9-10 8-10 9-10 10-9...
4th for Conlan - upping the workrate again and boxing a lot smarter; you still get the feeling Gill has his number but didn't counter too much....

Catching up... 1st and 2nd to Gill for me; good heavy knockdown and looked like there might be another. 9-10 8-10 Conlan 17-20 Gill
Wallop!
It would be old and beautiful, that's what ;)
The time made up by having short gaps between fights, is currently being lost again to Conlan's dreadful ring walk. It might be "rousing" for the...
