    cookieluv I THINK Gary is such nice guy away from the boxing but for some reason starts to lose it when he,s talking to press and put himself under pressure I think Gary noises up the officials and they dont like his style now cookieluv I was there and his camp where saying it was a robbery but like i said i thought McIntyre won by two rounds

    sky were there ,they had the camera out ,but i think when your talking highlights it will prob just be a few seconds worth mate as they also recorded arthur/anderson aswell ... and interviews with them

    Some of the stuff he said before was hurtful and pretty disgusting- that said, he's got talent and looks very solid reminds me a bit of John Simpson (southpaw version).

    Let's hope he leaves his talking out of it next time- I think he'll still do well, as for McIntyre- what a fighter! Every setback he just comes back again and again! Beautiful jab too!!

    Brown bomber I agree with your post Gary has talent but really need to start again with his style as after 4 round he run out of idea,s their no doubt he has talent but as i have already said he just learning the game a maybe needs a change of style and coaching as the present style not working or he not listen to his coach he looked massif on sat

    Kevs really looking to push for a fight with Purdy for the British , would be great to see him get a shot , if not then hopefully get some offers and not be sitting about for months

    jhi jeff, Gary trains at Lochend Gym under Terry McCormack .Its strange baecause last year he had appleby/arthur/stemp/and mcmillan but he let he other 3 go for what ever reason and opted to stay with mcmillan and now has john thain .

    he must see something in him ,also remeber last year he was suyppose to fight michael jennings aswell before he pulled out .

    I am not saying its the trainers fault but sometime moving give you a new lease of life like arthur he did look good on sat and he moved back to Peter Harrison. the only problem I see is who could he move to maybe Billy Nelson could do something but does Terry not train John Thain aswell that surely good sparring for Gary Mac the boy need to start again by looking at his style and his size he looked over muscular on sat and very tight now he does have talent that there no doubt but he has lost his way recently

    I thought AAA looked good against a guy who in real terms is a sparring partner for AAA.
    Alex now needs a meaningful fight to see if hes still got it or not im not overly convinced he has based on that video footage,his old snap isnt there anymore imo.
