    Yeah, i agree. I really like the guy, hes quite entertaining for a guy who can't punch. I remember him fighting for a Euro title not so long ago and he didn't disgrace himself if i remember correctly.

    I am no Napa fan. I find boring in and out of the ring.


    Munroe is a real beast at super bantam and did not hold much power up at feather. I think he will start to try and unload on guys and go for more stoppages bow, his KO succes at super bantam is very good. He hardly threw a telling punch against Kiko but that was all part of the gameplan and his way of winning that fight. Kiko loves fighters who want to stand in front of him. Still I will be surprised if we get a KO from Munroe tonight.


    Moffet would not have been sanctioned usually but we have very few guys down at bantam so he got the nod.

    Munroe doing well putting in a soild effort, his opponent is a freak.

    I would have bet on this but oh thats right 1/25 odds. More value betting on De La Hoya.

    Munroe got fustrated and looked at Maloney. He hasn't got much beyond euro at all, no boxing brain, just fitness.

    Noticed how Munroe was wearing alot of heavy clothing while on the Binman job, could he be overtraining perhaps and burn out like a candle eventually?

    How the **** does Munroe make that limit? Looks ****ing huge in there, his arms are like a welterweight! Not much he could do in there, guy didn't want to fight

    I think he's got good potential

    I wish!

    Streams are my saviour when it comes to boxing. Here there are only re-runs of marquee fights like a week later, if you are lucky

    Football is covered pretty well though

    I enjoyed the bout and glad to see Munroe win. He still looks good at the weight but still no heavy puncher although Bouatia stayed the full distance against big banger Kiko Martinez and is rarely stopped. I think he is at his level but to be honest I never expected him getting to this stage yet. Pickering a few years ago would have won him.

    Thought Munroe did ok considering the circumstances. Seems to be one of the good guys in boxing and hope he earns enough money so he can pack in the bins.
