    :good Thanks for that, i think we will agree to disagree. I give him 2-3 years before he realises he hasn't got it, only time will tell aye?

    Jesus, there's some shite being talked in this thread.

    Not just the usual Bellew/Gavin/Farnell bollocks either.

    **** off Greg.

    The only man who'll get close to beating a Klitschko anytime soon is Odlanier Solis.

    Nah I'm 100% seriosuly. It was a close fight I could see it either way but I had it for Sturm, not a robbery at all.

    Heres one.

    Germany aint that bad for bad decisions

    Britain may be worse or as bad as for close decisions. Whilst it may not have been a robbery (ive never understood close fights being called that). It was close. Macklin deserved a very close card if not a win. 116-112 Sturm is just ridiculous IMO

    Ha fair enough pal, I reckon Adamek will push him pretty close

    Sturm deserved it IMO, was in controll more and wasnt just mindlessly throwing shots.

    Yeh Adamek vs Vitali could be a good close fight

    Not by 4 clear rounds. No way you can say Macklin only deserved 4

    Would it be better for you if I bought into the hype of these 3?

    Boxing is all about opinions, when I first met you, you told me Froch would decimate Calzaghe. I disagreed and thought Calzaghe would pepper shots at Froch all night and win a typical UD. You had Murray over Mitchell and me the opposite.

    Why is it ok for me to disagree on everything bar the 3 guys you mentioned and for my point to be labelled as bollocks? Thats a **** attitude tbf Dan.

    Arnie has done **** all with Gavin in the time he has had him,and i mean absolutely **** all. Gavin fights the same way as he did when he first joined the paid ranks and still has no real power. He doesn't seem to have learned a jot.

    Also the jury is still out for Tony Bellew as I am still to see these silky skills and devastating powers he 'has'. Cleverly will show you that in time, no doubt :good

    Adamek is not a talent at HW and Vitali might just stop him, Haye for that matter would do a job on him too...

    You're basing that 'tripe' off the back of two performances in which he clearly won at a canter. The Mutley fight was a complete shut out. Frankie had been ill in the fortnight building up to the fight (which I can 100% personally confirm) and Mutley did **** all. Gavin did everything but stop him.

    The Woodhouse fight (despite Dave Parris' scorecards) was not as close as some clowns on here are making you to believe. Watch the fight instead of the Sky highlights.

    He should still be looking much better against the calibre of opposition (thelowest) IMO, and I think he's **** hot and could go all the way.
