Weds 9th July 9-10pm. Nate Campbell live. Audley Harrison live. David Price, Frank Warren, Amir Khan. The chin, the dreams, the reality and the hype. Enjoy boys and girls. Adios.
Wonder if Audley is going to continue digging himself verbally into a hole. What am I saying, of course he will.
If you want to listen online go on this page http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/sport/ and click on 'listen live' in the top right corner.
interesting points so far, "willie limonds punch was the one that caused khan the most bother" nate campbell only started boxing when he was 28.......8 years!!..........i wonder if this was amatuer as well......yes? and nate reckons amir khan aint what everyone makes him out to be.....should we believe the hype bout a world title round the corner?
wow they really ripped into Khan there. so suprised Khans people dont want him to move up, much easiar division Light Welter. Good show buncey, turned off as soon as audley came on though, if you want to retain viewers or lsiteners, have less audley harrison. that card on the 19th looks a shocker. would of liked more gossip to u normally have good stuff for us on there.
Damn, just came on & spotted the thread at 9:50ish, just caught the Audley Harrison interview & abit of Ricky Hatton standup- "I was fookin lying in the ring looking with light in my face after mayweather knocked me out & I thought it was morning & I was still in me fookin bed!!!" Stick to the boxing Ricky:deal
Did he really say that Maka my good man? I didnt catch the full interview, I just caught it from the bit where Audley said something happened to him in 2004 that ****ed him up for years. York hll is the one boxing venue I would like to go to in England, I love the atmosphere there when I see it on TV. The place oozes history. Heard you lot cheering Baz on in his last fight, you all made plenty of noise
am positive he said that mate, somethin to do with his voice or somethin in '04, who knows. aye york hall is mental, baz's first pro fight was down their, when hot property beat dean pithie for the commonwealth title, or was it british feck, a cannae mind. aye we made some noise down by mate, a ring of steel round our section though, a few of the boys were on the verge of gettin chucked out, thats when i moved away to watch the fight myself, a was too hyper wae baz in the ring, for me to concentrate on anythin else, shame about the result mind you, i thought the last 2 rounds were big ones for him to win, but hey back to the drawing board matey. :good
I remember it well mate, I watched it on TV & it was hot propertys greatest moment, his body punching was brutal that night. Like yourself, I thought yer boy Baz did enough to win, but its back to the drawing board as you say. What I liked about Baz's performance though was that he mixed his shots well, loved the way he was whipping them into the head & body. Shame Barnes wouldnt stand still for a minute though, but we always knew Barry would have to get a KO to get the decision down there. If that fight was in America? Barrys constant aggression would have seen him a points winner. gere in Britain though, negative fighters are adored:-( & Jim Watt, hes the worst for it. I always remember when winky Wright fought Trinidad & stunk the place out by jabbing & moving the whole night, Tito couldnt get his bombs off & the fight was a snorefest. Not according to Jim Watt though, who tried to tell us all that Winky was giving Trinidad such a beating he should retire!!! As I say, for some reason in Britain the aggressor doesnt get any credit. aah i could waffle on all day, & sorry about waffling already. When I get started about scottish fighters, I could talk all night long
