    Here mate:

    Just click on boxing and it tells you everything, when the coverage starts and who is fighting when. The timings are very accurate given that it's just three rounds so you can plan for the GB boxers quite easily.

    Fowler and Mccormack are the best of the Brits but they both have had bad luck with the draws

    Joe Cordina certainly isn't terrible mate. You mentioned that Flynn beat him which is obviously correct, Cordina had a mega off day that night. If they were to fight again tomorrow he would school Flynn Whoi is so overrated it's embarrassing.

    :good:good totally agree, he gets more exposure than josh taylor who is streets ahead of him in both skills and natural talent and all because he did a funny interview after winning the gold:rofl:rofl

    i personally don't think he will win anything more than a scottish title :good

    For both you. Yes Flynn is very over rated Im first to say that but was no fluke against Cordona I was there. Flynn made him look silly. Both are the most over rated boxers I have seen. I cant see him winning a medal and in my opinion will over achieve to win the bronze.. Josh isn't miles ahead your just saying that because your Edinburgh based.. Just remember Josh is a fair bit older and fighting nobodies with all his amateur experience.. Josh would lose right now to Jack Caterall but I believe Charlie would beat Scott Cardle.. In saying that Charlie needs slowed down and Josh needs sped up... Josh I expect with good matching to be at least European level he will get a shot at a World Title... Charlie needs to show something new in the coming years to get past British level

    Josh Taylor would school Catterall all day long, and theres about 15 british lightweights that would beat Cardle lol

    im not trolling bud, i really don't rate him and the lightweight division in britain is always a tough one to win. charlies whiskers aren't the best and as he steps up i think that will be exposed.:good

    don't get me wrong i hope he does win the british title and more:good
