    Well......

    After poor showings on televised shows on ITV lately - future ATG Barnes lost to a journeyman and was told by his trainer that his career was over...... whilst Fury took a liking to his opponents knackers whilst sporting a shockingly bad hairdo, and got a gift decision.

    Any news on these two?

    Retirement?

    Barnes was poor indeed last time out, didn't look like he had the heart for it. Still expect him to come back from it though, but he really needs to improve a LOT.

    Phill Fury is terrible and is just reaping the awards of being Tyson Fury's brother. If he wasn't his brother then will still wouldn't have seen any footage of him yet and he would probably have a 2-2 record.

    Well - no doubt they were only trying to get a reaction, but the lad just didn't seem to want to (or be able to) respond..... and let's be honest, the kid he was facing was half decent, but if you have aspirations of domestic titles you ought to be brushing those guys aside, either by stoppage or dominating shutout.

    Furys cousin/brother or whoever he is has got to be one of the worst boxers around. The guy is getting gift decisions and it utterly cack not to mention his crappy hairdo.
