Australian Boxing/SM Memorial thread

I actually think Damon is worse than what Raymond ever was. Damon probably knows more about boxing but he is so smug and also a shill at the same time. For as cringe as Andy could be he was usually just being himself.

 

Didn’t think last nights card was up to much at all. Two fights that probably shouldn’t be on tv and two that were ok. Never going to complain about content but essentially it was just an advertisement for Nikita vs Brubaker.

I’ll say this about Jack. Met him a couple of times and he’s a really decent fella. I don’t mind the character that him or Hardman kinda play out. It’s better than just the usual.

 

Interesting paulo aokuso and no limit split. Surely Aokuso attracting big time promotion offers.

 

I think Aokuso is making a mistake No Limit would look after him making him the A side he might get a rude awakening somewhere else

 

Saw some interviews with Dempsey McKean he seems like a good bloke. Hrgovic is being a bit arrogant and dismissive hopefully Dempsey can give him a shock.

 

Is Matchroom still planning big Aussie shows? He might still be able to fight in his own backyard while tapping into a better world scene.

 

Demsey seems like a good bloke. Massive step up from his level of competition though. He’s gone from D grade to at the very minimum B grade. Hope he gets it done but it’s a huge ask.

past Aussie boxers who I really enjoyed watching and forgot to mention the other day

Caparello - good fighter, deserved more imo
Hussein's obviously, can't forget them.
The Kelly boys
Katsidis
Ogilvie
Damian '' Super '' Hooper
Billy Dib

Think I mentioned Green, Kostya, Fenech when I edited my post the other day.

Ogilvie should have kept going. Narrow loss to GKJ who obviously went on to beat Teofimo. Brandon is a very good fighter.

 

Completely agree.

 

Willis Meehan in trouble AGAIN?

Arrested in Bikie crackdown and busted for having a handgun.

What the hell is wrong with this guy? Should be making headlines for boxing and creating a legacy but he's always getting caught doing something he shouldn't be doing.

 

Boxing news 2022 | Hassan Hamdan reveals Jeff Fenech insult that sparked fierce post-fight reaction (nine.com.au)

lol just seen this. Love the Hamdan's. Hamdan Jnr can go along way. Great win on the Tszyu-Ocampo undercard a few months back.

The **** went straight out of the ring after Nadar pushed him. I reckon Nader will bash most Aussie fighters of today

 

Hrgovic only pretends to be like that, but he's a good guy, just like McKean, and they both respect each other because they're real sportsmen.

 

pretends?
lol

 

Yeah he could be something decent in the ring if he tried.
