    :good Yeah Eames said his should bone grinded down. Sounds horrible, Shocked Kevin didn't like training hard, very talented kid.

    The guy i work for walked Lear to ring that night, was part of his camp without doing anything bar driving fighters about etc. Said was hostile but Lear lapped it up and set about Gomez.

    Korobov boxed the other day and won. I be honest lads and i don't wanna seem like someone who says it when it's happened but i never saw the hype with him TBH.

    Pele Reid is another hyped domestic heavy from the 90's :good

    Sticking with the heavyweights, Courage Tshabalala was touted after his reported amateur record (72-1, 72KOs) but was stopped every time he stepped up.

    What hurt lacy most was the injury sustained in the Vitaliy Tsypko rematch. He never recovered from that, i never understood why they put him in with another difficult left hander who he struggled with the first time.... Odd match making
