    Duran was totally out of shape against Laing.Anyone that has seen the fight would not be comparing it to Turpin vs Robinson, even allowing for Ray not being at his best either.

    Roberto looked like a square, he was as out of shape as i've ever seen him until he got totally ancient.

    Colin Jones who lives by me knocked out Kirkland Lang twice.

    Jones trained for them fights at the boxing club behind my house.

    But went up to Merthyr Tidfil to do more serious training closer to the fight with trainer Eddie Thomas.
