Roman Greenberg

Did he lose?? I gave up on the sod about 5 years ago.

 

He'll give up now Foreman beat him to becoming the first Israeli World Champ

 

He looked awful every fight he had and never faced a decent opponent. I would have loved to have seen him face one of the top Brits before he finished.

 

There were rumors he was going to be in one of the prizefighters but nothing really came from it.

 

One of the most boring fighters you will ever see step into the ring.

 

He just didn't develop. It happens.

 

He lost to Cedric Boswell by a 2nd Round KO last year and hasn't been seen since.

It's incredible to think that 6 years ago Boxing Monthly had a feature on him proclaiming that he would be the first "Billionaire boxer"...

 

They said the same thing years back with Matthew Ellis; he was going to be bigger than Tiger Woods!

In fact a couple years after first starting up, Boxing Monthly had to call a halt to their prospects of the month segment, because it was seemingly cursed.

 

He was only ever going to be somebody built up to have a 50-0 record so he could get a shot (and get destroyed in said shot) at the World Title. Didn't even make it that far.

I think he's made a few bob though, he generated alot of interest.

 

Not too surprised if he's quit, he showed such little fire and passion throughout his career I could see him packing it in off a single loss.

That's a bloody harsh thing to say about a pro fighter I know. But I don't think I'm wrong.

Greenberg vs Julius Francis is still one of the worst fights I've ever seen in my life.

 

:deal

This will make you feel better...

The BBC showed delayed coverage of that fight. As I had already made plans for the day it was scheduled to be shown I set the video to watch it when I came back home. I'd forgot to rewind the tape and never got to see the fight.

So, I e-mailed one of the traders from the back of Boxing Monthly and bought a copy for around £10 (including P+P)... surley I've said enough... :-(

 

:scaredas:

Damn, you should join a support group, because your wallet was raped.

 

That is probably the biggest fail in history.

 

Haaaaa!! thats almost as embarrassing as the time I got my head caught in a cinema chair at Butlins when I was about 8
