I think people get excited and take things out of context. I don't think Ricky was bad and him and billy deserve all the credit in the world for achieving what they did. I just questioned the statement that said he had a lot of ability, I personally didn’t think he did, he just made good use of what he had, coupled with a tremendous attitude. If that’s trolling then we may as well not bother having a forum.
Well what did he have in his array of punches that WAS world class? F*ck me, Froch is the same. If you was going to teach ANYBODY the fundamentals of Boxing you wouldn't use Ricky or Carl as examples.
I dont care, fundamentals are exactly that! A fighter will have their own style. If you can become a world champion without having the best skills then your achievement was even better! you cant teach heart!
I can see it now, warrington a big hope in leeds will lose a couple of fights billy will take over and make him a two weight world champ and will still be called a useless w@@@@er!
I hope to work with real talented lads in Leeds and surrounding areas, I'm really looking forward to this challenge can't wait
