Catching up with Joe Laws

Joe Laws is nothing special- and that's being very kind to him. Never been remotely impressed watching him. He's an English title level fighter generally speaking, who with the right fight and and a lot of luck may go slightly beyond that but no further.

He was signed up by Matchroom as ticket seller because he has a big mouth, the idea being that he will prop up a Newcastle card which Kelly or Ritson would headline. He was never even in the 'prospect' camp with the likes of the former Olympians and various others signed post 2016 as his ceiling was always quite clear.

His interviews are embarrassing to watch. It's one thing having a sense of humor but he sounds and acts like a 12 year old.

The only saving grace is that when he (inevitably) gets beat again it will be very satisfying to watch.
