just watched mc closkey morrison (late i know) and as nice as pauls jab right hook and left up the middle looked he was getting caught with cheap punches way too much. he can get away with that agaisnt the likes of morrison but if he goes to world level he will be punished for that also his conditioning. hes still too soft around the body for me. perhaps he should get mike mcgurn onboard for a year or so to get him cut and stronger at the weight
I have been an admirer of Lee's slick technical skills, but cannot dismiss some of his performances last year were he hasnt looked good. He doesnt look the accomplished boxer when he is in with better quality and I think Macklin would cause him huge problems. Lee's inside game and defence have looked poor and I think Macklin would drag him into a fight that he would lose.
why does this dickhead commentator keep saying "ulster" instead of northern Ireland? o'hara "the ulsterman" had a good bout. guy is seriously boring to watch though but i like his defensive style. makes himself hard to hit. i'd heard about him but never seen him before
theyre trying to make it sound older, northern ireland has only exsisted for less than a hundred years, but if they say "ulster" it sounds like it has a longer history, even though that version of "ulster" only has 6 counties, instead of 9.
