    Enzo can talk some ****. Without JC he would not have even been trainer of the year or whatever he kept going on about.

    On the show last night he gave the most defensive interview i've ever heard, if he didn't have such a brass neck I would have been really embarassed on his behalf. Came across as insecure trainer of the year 2008.

    did they say something about haye and booth considering Sports Network to promote the heavyweight campaign.

    i guess one thing SN have going for them is they are very good at marketing. as long as they don't have any say in the matchmaking, I won't mind.

    I wonder if this is why FW started showing a little more respect towards haye since the macca fight?

    I listened to the show when it originally aired, & was saddened that they only gave Arthur v Guzman about 10 seconds talk at the end of the show:-(
    & once again the Mayweather-Guzman comparison was made...

    I love the fact so many think Guzman is Floyd MayweatherJnresque, just love it. But hey, everyone knows that I predict Arthur beats Guzman in the shock of the century & becomes one of the top 10 P4P in the process.
    So onto the rest of the show. It was funny hearing big Wlad diss David Haye, "I never heard of him until last week, the heavyweight division is full of bullshitters" in his own unique broken english way of saying things:D
    As for Enzo Calzaghe, I must admit I was laughing at the way he went on the front foot when being quizzed about Enzo Mac & Rees defeats harming his own reputation, & I couldnt help but notice one of the questions they asked him was stolen from one of my posts... Call me paranoid, but I know what I wrote, & what they then asked...

    Guzman will finish Arthur as a world class fighter and back to british title fights. Guzman is at least two levels above in terms of skill and although not often knocking out opponents, definately has more power than Stephen Foster and the skill to deliver at the right punch at the right time and an good defence. I predict a 9th round stoppage win for Guzman.

    So by your reckoning Arthur is world class, but Guzman is TWO levels above world class? I ****in love posters like you:D
    You guys are building Guzman up to be something hes not, & Im loving it:smoke
    Keep it coming! Come on, please tell me Guzman is a legend someone, & make my week:deal

    Joan Guzman, the two levels above world class fighter who is Floyd Mayweather jnr into the bargain. The cynic in me tells me that people are talking up Guzman cos they WANT to believe he will destroy Arthur. Im happy with that.
    Very happy in fact.
    Just remember & come back when Arthur finishes Guzman with a left hook to the body, cos I want my pound of flesh newb. I want to see you on your knees admitting to my good self that Arthur is indeed a top 10 P4P fighter.

    :think Bunce did say at the start of the show that he'd been looking through the websites and the "ones who usually slag him off". Maybe you should start copyrighting your posts.

    Dunky as much as I'd love Arthur to beat Guzman(who's not quite as good as most think but still very talented) Arthur looks dead at the weight and if he is at a similar level to the Foster fight he'll be stopped easily . If he fights at the level of the Gogoladze and Gulyakevich fights he has a chance .

    With that said I haven't yet seen Guzman v Soto and Guzman was meant to have been spectacular .

    Thing is though, I like big Bunce & dont slag him off the way most people do.
    It was Steve 'Elvis' Costello who put the question to Enzo that I had thrown here a while back, & he didnt give me my dues...

    & to think these gits get paid for stealing my ****!

    Just remember Big Ears my good irish friend, Guzman is weight drained too, & isnt as naturally big at the weight as Alex Arthur is.
    & more good news, I was well happy to see Amazin Alex Arthur has taken Wayne McCulloughs offer up to go to Las Vegas & train for Guzman under his tutelage, I was well happy to hear this as the pocket rocket is a man who will whip Arthur into shape.

    With McCullough guiding AAA, Im laughing even more. Top class sparring in Vegas, & then home to bonnie Scotland to whoop Guzman & claim his place in the top 10 P4P world rankings.
    Im as smug as a bug in a rug.

    That's very good news as McCullough is the best person you can think of for getting someone into shape .

    I really would love to see Arthur upset the odds and show he's much more than just a Warren fighter who got a good opportunity as many think he is .
    Whatever happens Arthur's a more deserving title holder than Fana anyway .
