    I saw the pints being lobbed in, but i was on the other side, so didn't quite see what went off.
    Got a pick with enzo who was doing the rounds before the fight, what a top lad!
    Went for a pint after the fight in the pan-am bar, and saw craig from big brother. ****ing smaller than me he is, and i am only 5 "9

    He never KO'd the copper just got away from him & ran away to the amusement of the crowd. Prior to that there was a bigish bald fella who went for some other fella but no real punches exchanged.

    Saw a bit of trouble at the bars around the seating but i think it was to do with other issues rather than Quigley v Smith.

    So i take it the lads i overheard talkin were bullshittin then as per usual!!

    Some people talk shite for talkin shite's sake

    i managed to see the bald fella!
    what did you reckon of the entrances? I thought atmosphere for when smigga went to the ring was utter quality, the way the whole crowd was going "woo ooo woo oo" "you're a real gone kid"
    was ace

    seems to be the full package, but i am reserving judgement on any one until they become pound for pound number one, as anything less doesnt seem to be enough when talking about someone on here sometimes!

    sorry to harp on, but i have just watched the fight again, as all this bollocks about tony bullying smith, and winning the fight has got my goat.
    I am not saying it was a classic, or a display of exquisite boxing skills or anything like that. But...... i watched the frank warren footage, and colin hart summed up quigley in one perfect phrase. "tony qugiley is more of a wrestler than a boxer"
    couldn't have put it better myself. dont get me wrong, tony did some good work in the fight, and i can understand people thinking it was close.
    But the fight was won in the championship rounds where quigley looked out of his depth, and clung on for dear life on a number of occasions.
    But i say this. get it one more time to seal the deal, and prove a lot of people wrong.
