    :lol:

    Up through Cheated Not Defeated he had some fair ones. Prescott he was lucky to scrape by against (I did score it razor-thin to Dudey but many felt he lost, and really with how much Prescott sucks it shouldn't have even been close if McCloskey was truly world level) and yeah, against Chop Chop he just totally shat the bed.

    He's basically regressed each time out.

    Cue the Khan army crediting Amir with ruining him. :!:

    He's shot.

    He'll be seated and defeated again before long.

    He was slipping before he got the Khan fight. Watch him against Lynes and then Corley.... miles different.

    :lol:

    i think hes a bit shot too and with his style based of reflexes it'l be a push for him to go anywhere above where he has already

    It was a fairly short ride for this casual-McCloskey fan, but the ride is over.
    I watched him in the Khan fight (enough said), I saw him scrape past Prescott and then I saw him tanked vs Corley.
    Unless he is fighting someone I want to watch i doubt i'll tune in.

    Remember the fight and the commentators ignoring Corley's good work.

    Good thing he got the stoppage as he was set for a loss no matter what.

    He's been down hill since the Lauri fight. I thought he certainly lost to Prescott as well.

    I'm a fan of McCloskey as I followed his career right from the start and always loved watching him on the RTE fight night cards - having said that I'm glad Corley got the stoppage cause there's no ****ing way anyone can tell me McCloskey would have deserved the decision. Up by 3 points at time of the stoppage, give me a break!

    I'm just glad none of you are bitter about it being a "quick stoppage"; funny enough the one person who trumpeted that notion the loudest was king khan, an American troll who probably didn't give a **** about Dudey really. (whose obvious agenda was to big up McCloskey to indirectly make Khan's resume look better)
