I miss everything from training to posting on here to playing with my lad and once I am free from the place and back home I'll explain exactly why I found it an inappropriate career choice.
well hopefully things get better for you mate who knows maybe 1 day you will get your career back on track! only seen you once which was on dvd i think against lee mcallister you were robbed but you dont need me to tell you. you have the talent just dont waste it bud
i really like John Simpson he keeps getting robbed but i think he has come good his power was surprising last night i can see him moving up and maybe being world level oneday hes only 24 now so hes got about 8-10 years left in him
Simpson is now officially the man. I thought he was robbed against Matthews (some of the judges didn't even take a point of Matthews for the knockdown, and had him ridiculously winning every round) and if he fought Matthews again he could knock him out. It's a shame that, for marketing reasons, Matthews is pushed and coddled by Warren, while warriors like Simpson have to struggle and fight every inch of the way.
Just watched the Simpson- Morris fight. Simpson was fantastic he looked strong as ****!!! I think Morris has gone back a bit though but that was an excellent performance- Morris' beard is slightly questionable Carl Allen nearly Ko'd him and floored him twice just after he'd fought me and Danny Thorpe also dropped him and badly hurt him but it wasn't counted..... On another note spare a thought for Mr Shannon in the corner, his boxer has just lost and in recent years I'm sure i read he had lost his son and wife. If thats the case then that is a very courageous man who keeps the boxing game in the manchester area in very good shape.
Warren already struck Simpson permanently off the list of potential opponents for Matthews. I'm sure he's now erased the name altogether.
Even if Matthews beats Simpson without a pre-written decision, he'll still look awful in doing it. A dangerous fighter who can at least make his boy look like a wind-up toy is not the kind of opponent Warren puts his commercially regional heavyweight prospects against, at least not until they've shown world class talent. Dirty Derry has not shown world class talent; even his domestic level performances have been questionable.
I've seen Matthews-Simpson and totally forgot Vann took points. I just remember being disgusted. I will watch the fight tonight and for 7 rounds I will be Scottish.
