Aussie Joel Brunker Signs with Gary Shaw

hmmmm world title ?? bit much for a club fighter who has padded his record with phillo's

 

Which pretty much means there's no improvement left.

I'd rather you say he never trained and had a **** trainer, that means if someone good got a hold of him and his dedication improved he could turn into something special.

 

Fair enough, I went off on a tangent

 

Absolutely, Joels a good bloke, we bump into him at the local fairly regularly.
His trainer is a good bloke too.

I hope he continues to do well, his last fight was tough and he looked pretty bashed up.

 

hes got really good fundamentals. very tidy. who knows what he may be capable of.

 

Brunker doesn't particularly impress me but opportunities like this can see a fighter grow...which he probably won't if he stays fighting in Oz against the guys he has been.

Stuff like this is always great for Aussie boxing, even if it doesn't eventuate in a world title.

 

Well he's 20-0 top record so far I think its perfect timing to elevate him to the next level!

 

head defence is a bit leaky for a shot at a legit champ , got hit way too often the other night against a battler who worked out in the 3rd round joel could be hit with every jab he threw. will have to be matched like choc from now on. good bloke but plenty finish second at the highest level .

 

no guesses for why trent was there with angelo in tassie.

i give it 12 months before hes signed with shaw too

 

All the best to him, it's certainly a great opportunity. Given that he is very dedicated means he'll never die wondering.

Can't see him making the top levels based on the Tassie fight though, his 20-0 record was reminiscent of seeing the Hussein boys come through the ranks 10 years ago. While neither could properly hit the top, both looked to have more talent than Joel.

 

He was there as a guest to watch the fight,nothing more...
