James Toney - for such a defensive master, his habitual lack of moving his feet whilst bending from the waist has lost certainly contributed to...
Guess I'm in the minority. I only give Mickey Gerrard credit for his finishing ability but nothing really for the name of who Holmes was or how...
Concur with everything said, Macca - your posting gets better and better when it comes to the breakdowns. This is one that I've thought about...
Literally going to say this and then conversely, most people I know wanted to see the rematch but I had zero interest in it and predicted that the...
