Could you stop this please Len no need for it, you have been wrong about Lee tons of times and now you talking about him getting Parkinson's when if you look at he's career he hasn't taken much damage, stop the disgusting nonsense
O come on guys..lighten up! I'm only having a laugh. Stop being drama queens! Murphy - excuse me but I have not a track record of being wrong about Andy. In point of fact my track record of deadly accurate predictions is second to none. Alone among thousands I tried to tell everyone Billy Joe Saunders would beat him. Marty I'm surprised at you. You should see it was a joke meant light heartedly ffs. Besides....I make a joke about the dangers ....while you guys urge him to keep boxing...and I'm the bad guy! That's a bit rich innit? Everybody knows I've been advising Andy to retire for years.
I'll be at all three yeah. Shame that the Red Corner Dublin show is on the same night as the Boxnation Belfast show
Will the police raid at MGM affect any Irish boxers? Haven't several Irish lads signed up with them just recently? Wonder who the. "Irishman in his 30's" was that got arrested as part of the same operation?
GGG was desperate for an opponent there. If if Kell brook hadn't stepped up there's a good chance team GGG might have taken Andy as a " stay active" opponent, a filler. Maybe Andy should thank Brook. GGG is only interested in hoovering up titles from now on so Andy has nothing he wants, thankfully. He will pursue bjs and Jacobs for the next year. So Andy Lee won't get a shot at him. I don't understand why Andy didn't make more noise about getting a rematch with BJS?. He only lost narrowly to bjs in the end. He actually did better than I expected in that fight. He wasn't beaten any more comprehensively than say Quigg or LSC were by Carl, and they are both screaming for a rematch. I can't help but think that if Andys heart was still in it he would be too. Maybe he has more or less made up his mind to retire. His lack of hunger for a rematch with bjs tells a lot. BUT it looks like he has an itch he wants to scratch with Golovkin before he can fully retire. Golovkin is the wrong guy to feel like this about. Andy feels his power gives him a chance. Wrong. Stevens and certainly Lemieux hit harder and GGG let Stevens hit him for fun and didn't even blink. Right now Andy can walk away from boxing fully healthy. Golovkins power and Andys wide open style is a deadly combination. So personally I don't want to see it happen, cos for sure it ends badly for Andy. At best he takes unnecessary punishment on top of what he has already taken and suffers a rough stoppage, like against Chavez. But GGG isn't Chavez. Remember this guy broke bones in Oumas face, kells face, macklins ribs, and these guys were better defensively than Andy, certainly the first two. Does he need that? What good will it do him? Don't do it Andy. Forget about GGG.
Interesting interview with Barnes. Expects to fight pro in Belfast by xmas from the sound of it. [url]https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/other-sports/paddy-barnes-confirms-he-is-turning-professional-1.2793572[/url]
[url]http://www.irish-boxing.com/promotional-change-for-jono-carroll/[/url] Another Irish boxer links up with MGM. Is Jono any good. How far can he go? Anyone seen much of him?
Very good, very ambitious, and very hard working. Good skillset and engine but lacks a bit of power. One of our best prospects
