    **** me is that all you have, Kiko ****ing Martinez, give me a break!!!
    Richard Dobal Cordobas manager said before the fight that he took was disregarding the Martinez loss and saw Dunne as an unbeaten fighter as that loss said nothing about Dunne's skills.
    If that is all you have to hold onto, that Munroe beat Martinez and so he would beat Dunne, then you have not got a clue.
    If that is the case then Dunne would beat Caballero cos he just beat Cordoba, and Cordoba beat Caballero.
    Just give it up ffs!

    You do that.

    We are allowed to change our opinions in the face of evidence. Dunne proved a lot tonight and showed a level of performance I've never seen from him. It's no use me simply discrediting his opponent and sticking to my original assesment when his opponent has already proven his credentials. That is foolhardy.

    If Dunne fights like that and Munroe fights like he has in any of his last few fights there is only one winner. What the hells he gonna do? Munroe can't punch for ****, no way harder than Cordoba. And he can't box with the version of Dunne that was so sharp tonight. Ain't happening.

    I think that I did give Dunne credit...unlike Paddy McGinty and his oppo I just don't believe that he is anywhere close to world class, and given Cordobas performance tonight, neither is he.

    As for disregarding first round knockouts, does this mean that Khan is still unbeaten?, no thought not, its bull****.

    Let's see your rankings if they are not "anywhere near" world class.

    Should be very interesting this.

    I think the problem you have is you have this pre-concieved idea that Dunne is rubbish and shouldn't win the fight as he's a big underdog, and now that he's won you are sticking with that and rather than accepting Dunne was very good you'll naturally assume Cordoba was poor.

    Upsets can happen! It doesn't mean every favourite that loses was no good!

    This is a fight munroe's manager turned down because he though he would get beat and Bernard beat Cordoba in an amazing fight. I don't know if Munroe can beat him but at least Peters has the balls to take a gamble on his fighters. Something English promoters should do in future!

    What do you class as world class, top ten?? If so Cordoba, Dunne and Munroe are not top 15

    :good
    By the way TFFP to answer your question on the first page, i had my doubt's about Dunne right up till the oppening bell tonight but he proved everybody wrong and as for improving he did a fine job after the two knockdown's. How close was it on the cards before the 11th?
    I was trying to score but it's hard, the emotions might have been getting the better of me.

    great point i forgot maloney saying on bunces boxing hour, why put rendall in against cordoba now to get beat when he can put him in against him after another 3 fights when he has a chance

    it was a big risk by brian peters and it was a big big win, dunne showed his true credentials, if i also remember maloney said dunne would be getting destroyed and it would be his last fight

    not to worry ill put franks comments down to his dislike for brian peters and not dunne

    i had dunne up 2 going into the 11th without biased scoring as i didnt want to be emotionally destroyed by the judges, id say it was something similar for most people
