    He aint shy of M Hatton at all. He worked his way , right or wrong through to Euro. M hatton aint ever done this.

    AA has sat waiting on Warren for quite some time. Call it what you want, he was coming good, very good. He became pondlife.........Warren.

    I aint a coach and i aint a Prom, i say what i see, from an outsider.

    Disrespect, no ! Anger , yes!!

    As was mentioned, was / is / did he become a stepping stone for his promoter ?

    As far as " i am aware" Limond for example dosent go with a promoters rules, he does what HE thinks is best, maybe its not done him any favours...........

    He aint getting shafted........


    AA is ...........and yes i am gutted.

    My opinion, i appreciate if someone could steer me on a better line / scenario / reason.

    Thats all


    Warren wasted Arthur, before the Cook fight.......what good has come from it, for EITHER fighter ?


    ****all

    arthurs addmitted he had trouble making the weight,but dispite this i think guys like steve foster jr and nicky cook should have been easy wins but turned into losses and close calls

    I agree, but i wont regarding presumptions.

    I will say, 3 years ago, both the named fighters WONT have "hanged" with Alex Arthur.


    Call me out, learning is part of and parcel of being wrong..............presumptions are different.

    Some of us have been saying that for years. He has no wow factor about him and is boring to watch. I would rather watch holiday adverts on teletext for 2 hours than AA fighting some bum.

    Gomez exposed him and so did Cookie. Lets see AA fight someone like Choi and have his arse handed to him again.

    Well we all have our opinions. I just think Arthur is an average boxer who was exposed at a domestic level twice by boxers who will/was NEVER in the mix at world level. Cook and Gomez were allright but come on. Any top 10 beats Arthur easily.

    Like I said mate dont want to disrespect the lad its just my opinion

    In fairness, I think to be over-rated you have to be rated by somebody in the first place. I don't think Arthur or Matt Hatton are to be honest.

    **** off with all the comparing Arthur to that bald ***** Matty Hatton.

    At the end of the day, Arthur is a good fighter, & everyone knows here that Nicky cook got a gift decision over him.
    It was Arthurs own fault though, for being foolish enough to think he would get the decision in the belly of the beast.
    Even Scotty harrison knew that he would have to knock Brodie out in the same situation, Arthur was just silly enough to think jocks got the same treatment as englanders down there.
    Daft **** fell for the term "we are all brits" & paid with his belt as Cook got the W for running.

    But hey, what do I know?

    Thank **** Craig McEwan has the brains to stay away from this corrupt little shithole, as far away from Dave Parris, Howard Foster etc, I can sleep easier at night knowing that Scotlands no1 aint getting jobbed anytime soon like Rogie did.

    Come on Dunky, Cook schooled him. AA did nothing all night and all this gift decision talk is utter tripe.

    AA is domestic level and really got lucky that Guzman could not be arsed to travel to the UK to beat the **** out of AA.
