The relevant question here is not how many training sessions Luke has....it's how many fights. Very few of today's boxers are active enough. 2 or 3 fights per year is regarded as normal now. This is insane ..and one of the biggest factors damaging boxing today.
Speaking of which, how much has been tweaked in his game to ensure the rematch goes differently than his last encounter with Doran on Prizefighter? :think
lukes hand was broke in there first fight... and even then he was the one coming on strong in the final rd... luke will KO this guy to fcuk out:good
By rights Luke and Doran should have about ten fights between them sinc their meeting last Val day. The have ..what... A fight or two each in the intervening year. Inactivity is a cancer killing boxing.
i totally agree it is becoming a joke, he fought better opposition in the wsb 5 years ago than he is facing now, they are building a record not a fighter and its frustrating the guy he fought today was out of shape,worked as a painter by day , its a joke for a guy of quigleys class to be facing someone like that now
Good for Quigs - as for the men of 1916 they'd be turning in their graves if they could see what and who they wasted their lives for...:-(
I knowits not an Irish boxer but I feel I must mention Nick Blackwell today. Hope he makes a full and speedy recovery. . Also Im disgusted with Sky - I just watched Sky /sports News - 4th or 5th item was Kell Brook - - NO MENTION AT ALL of the Eubank-Blackwell British Middleweight title fight, and no mention AT ALL of Blackwells condition. This from an English TV outfit. This is not just an 'oversight'. I find this neglect deeply offensive. Anyone of the thousands of Irish Sky subscribers - of which I am one, agree?
