    To win a British Title is a great acheivment and to knock someone for doing so is oh so rude
    The people who knock them should give it a go themselves

    I do not think he is a bad boxer but Cardle lacks something.

    He frustrates me more than he entertains me and boxing from a fans point of view is about being entertained.

    Worst champion?
    no not for me but i think he's a classless bellend and not someone you could warm to or root for generally.

    I found it amusing that he should call dodd a "small hall fighter" when masher has personally sold more tickets in his last two fights with cardle than cardle has sold since turning pro.

    i agree it is a great achievement but that doesn't take away the fact that better fighters than him have never won it because the division is strong at the time. :good

    and lets be honest if cardle wasn't one of your bumboy joe gallaghers boxers then you wouldn't have the same opinion :patsch:good

    He visited a gym I used to train in in South London and was on the bag next to me. Didn't know who he was at the time and didn't pay much attention, was only after I heard all the stories... Very strange and somewhat frightening.

    He was a total ****head before he became a jihadist. He called himself Anthony 'Sugar Ray Clay Jones Jr.' Small.

    Watching him get KTFO by Pryce is still one of my favourite moments in boxing.

    Another eddie hearn judge payoff. ..cardle only got the draw because eddie is matching him with luke Campbell at the rugby stadium in hull. ...cardle Campbell sells better than dodd Campbell

    There have been some bad ones but he does rank up there with them.
