Cruiserweight and Heavyweight thread.

345lbs Heavyweight Hosea Stewart (2-0) fights Franklin Ignatius (4-0) on 30 July in Newcastle on Channel 5.

 

Stewart looks like he'd be taller lying down than standing up!

For all his bulk, Stewart couldn't stop 4-36-1 Phil Williams when the two fought. Then again, neither could Franklin Ignatius - so perhaps this is good matchmaking!

 

Guido Vianello will face Rafael Rios in an 8 rounder on July 23.

 

I seem to remember his last outing was less than stellar.

 

They robbed him.

Losing your 0-0 like that for such a low purse- Criminal.

Kenzie Morrison interview.

 

So now it is a big deal to interview a novelty act?

 

Was good crack he's a sound kid I've had Tarver, Steve Cunningham, Nate Campbell etc on and he was up there as one of the best.

 

I did not realize you did the interview. Sorry for my rudeness.

 

It's cush mate I just get boxers on time to time as I'm a fan myself mate.

 

Gunnar Kristinsson will face Rodney Moore on August 10th.

A Nordic clash between Gunnar and Kem Ljungquist would be neat.

 

How tall is Gunnar?

 

Probably 6'4-6'6.

 

Morrison seems to have a good head on his shoulders, and a fair level of humility from what I've heard in interviews. It's clear that he has a lot of respect for the sport of boxing unlike a certain clowns who I will not bother naming. He and his brother are both novelty acts, but I was impressed with how he handled Rahman jr. who had a fairly extensive amateur background unlike him.

 

I had to do a double take on this, this is the same Moore who turned pro in 96 I was thinking of. Wild!
