Desperate Darren begs Macklin for a shot - cringe!

so we're all chavs and yobs that follow gavin ?

 

A bit harsh, I think you're being the bigotted black and white thinker here: it is perfectly possible to accept the premise that national identity is a malleable, essentially contestable concept AND believe that it can be purposively, even cynically, appropriated at will. Indeed, to some extent the two possibilities are tied into one another.

Why act as if are mutually exclusive? that is ignorant.

 

Of course not mate, but surely you won't deny that there's a fair amount that are.

 

Take no notice of Wallet, He's a posh Brummie. :yep

 

yep no problem admitting that, we seem to get an element that like to latch themselves on to our fighters unfortunately.

 

While we're talking 'Irish' boxers, any of you Irish lads want to give me a P4P Top Five. To me you have a handful of fighters pretty evenly placed at the solid European/fringe world contender level - hard to rank them...

 

What's Egan upto now...:think

He must be on a good number with the Irish Amateur Boxing Association not to have turned pro...:think

 

He's well look after by the iaba, ill tell you that much. He's also been fighting in the world series of boxing fro the past 6 months or so, on the milan team.

 

I like Egan...:good He stood Jeffries on his head at the Olympics...:yep

 

What part of brum you from wallet ?

 

I honestly dont think if he was top of the bill in brum he'd be selling tickets like your on about slap.Mag 7 bill had a good few fighters on it so its hard to make a case for him. I'm going on him fighting at the aston villa leisure centre 3/4 years ago when he was well into his pro career.At similar stages of there careers Gavin is/was much bigger fan base wise.

 

I think slaps a legit irish man is'nt he ? Please god dont tell me he was born over here ? That would be horrifically plastic:yep. As long as slaps born and bred an irish man what he does is good for irish boxing and you can only knock his biasness:good

 

****, Barker-Macklin. This is like the UK's version of Pacquiao-Mayweather, innit?

It's set to happen sometime before 2020, right?

 

Mate do you not think its bull**** to say your irish when your born in england ? Its got to be the most ******ed thing i've ever heard. Of course your dad is'nt gonna say hes english he was born in ireland.

 

I think its the fighter thats knocking around with the naughty boys to be fair
