    The Mcguigans and Frampton are getting far too cocky. Taylor is the latest addition to the firm.

    Truth be told, I'm not sure how likeable either of them are.
    Davies has talked big and failed to deliver, so he hardly deserved praise.

    I don't know Josh and have never spoke to him but I haven't overly liked his manner whenever I have seen him in person, getting interviewed or what others have said about him.
    Again though he is a quality operator, Scotland's best by some distance, going on the assumption Burns is done.

    Burns was done after the Beltran fight - since that fight we have seen him skipping away to huge points losses when up against good opponents or winning against mediocre/poor opponents.

    His biggest loss was Billy Nelson who appeared to get 50% more out of him.

    He does seem to have a less than pleasant manner, at least from the little I've seen of him.
    That could cost him support in the long term.

    His best spell was definitely with Billy. Poor matchmaking since has played a major part along with an accumulation of tough fights.
    I think it would be sad if Burns was to receive a pasting from Taylor.

    I would agree. I would also be liked to be proved wrong.

    RDJr mocked OD after his loss, so this is fair play. OD probably would have destroyed that Pole last night.

    Lol I'd rather have them hate each other then go on about how it was all to sell tickets which really makes us the viewers look like fools because we bought into the animosity.

    Its all Fair game but RDJ was in hospital when he wrote that so it's a bit ****y. Maybe he never knew at the time.
    Anyway my point was aimed at the people who are saying Taylor has come across worse since the fight than OD has which is bull. That tweet and the video I posted of OD being a ***** in a post fight interview proves how much bull that is.

    Both fighters lost their last fights due to similar reasons. They both threw away the game plan set by their corners and tried to turn their respective fights into slug fests. OD went looking for the big shot because he decided he wasn't going to be able to outbox Taylor and RDJ couldn't resist proving he was the tougher man against Syrowatka.

    Grown men asking who is the most likeable and who talks the least smack.

    Grown men on a boxing forum no less.

    Who gives a f.....

    This is the most brutal sport out there, and most of the followers of it, are not special snowflakes who get triggered when one fighter threatens another. Threats and boxing go along with each other.

    You seem triggered by this thread. Real men don't get triggered by triggered snow flakes on boxing forums.

    No I am beating up the smaller kid in the school playground for sh*ts and giggles, thats just what the big bully does. I cannot help it when I see these little special snowflakes to not give them a clip when I pass them in the corridor.
