    Never thought about that side of it,mate.Must have been disappointing for you.Guess it'd soften the blow a bit if Lee got the shot,even though I personally don't give him much chance at all.Hope you have a good trip.

    Cheers Ted. Aye this trip which originally started as a cheapo flight to detroit has turned into a right farce but I suppose its been a lot worse for the promoters and fighters. Just one of the hazards of booking to see fights abroad I guess but at least this time we have the Peterson v Matthysse fight rather than Smith V Bundrage!

    Planning to go to a MLB game in Philly and do a fair few other stuff as well so should still be a good laugh..

    My word brook looked so gutted on ringside. And Selby looks like a class boxer. Love hes showboating.

    The fact that he lost his title doesn't mean he's not 'British (domestic) level'. To suggest otherwise would be absurd.

    Plain and simply this. I also do wonder how ready to take risks Brook is. I don't know but he doesn't strike me as the type who could 'take' the thought of losing.

    Hope Purdy gets a shot, he would give Alexander a good fight.

    that doesn't even make sense. since when has what clothes you wear affected how tough you are? only a wannabe gangster would think like that in the first place.
