Morris won about 13 or 14 rounds in their first two meetings. Simpson never displayed the necessary tools. Don't be stupid, I give him credit. I'm impressed he came back for a third go and won. I was fully behind him against Matthews. You Scots always make everything you against someone else. Simpsons a BRITISH champ. I support ALL British fighters. Winning last night in my opinion is an upset. I don't count the second fight as a clear win.
It has already been admitted. I didn't think Simpson could win. He did not seem to be faster, more powerful or stronger and he lost about 90% of the rounds they fought in their two bouts.
achiles give my boy credit were its due? 1st fight morris killed him illness 'or not. 2nd fight difference of opinion i felt johns tactics of body atacks was working you didnt 3rd fight john applied the same tactics and without being disrespectful kills morris give credit were its due please???
Why are Simpson fans being stupid? I think the FIRST word I posted about the win was AMAZING! 1st fight he lost clearly, you admit this. Second fight, only the extreme minority believe Simpson was lucky to be drawing on the cards. I need to see the third fight.
thanks terry always takes the better man to admit he was wrong! im just glad it wasnt me but i still appreciate what your saying. in youe opinion what do you think both john and morris should do next? i know john has been trold he can have a shot at the european next do you think thats the right move? and were does morris go now?
achilles i think you need to watch 2nd and 3rd fight 2nd fight john was doing exact same as laastnite body punches and weraring morris down. he did same lastnite and look what happened? simpson is the best featherweight accept it please
Like I said, John may have been working the body BUT in my eyes and most he had lost all the rounds. Apparently he wasn't losing rounds last night. John says he is stronger and punches harder so this time the gameplan may have worked but when you fight about 16 rounds and lose about 14 of them then that speaks for itself.
Its nice you have came back to take your medicine, & I applaud you for that. Im well pissed off at you calling me a liar on another forum though, that was way below the belt. Anyone who knows me here knows I have my faults, Im obsessed with scottish fighters & can be a right moody ****, but to accuse me of being a liar when you could count the amount of times we have conversed here on one hand? Very disrespectful. However, Im willing to forgive & forget as I didnt know you were so close to Andy Morris, & thats probably how you got so offended at my story as you like the guy so much & find it hard to believe he could do any wrong.
well dunky doesnt matter now mate by the timw morris wakes up im sure you will have well sobered up!! though i doubt i will have!!!
so max your a ''dirty'' derry matthews fan still think he would dismantle john after that performance lastnight? i told everyone hes worked on his power and finishing ability and no one listened to me. sparring wioth craig has really brouight him on. bring on the european title!!!
I dunno, but he deserves a rematch with Derry. I wish Derry didn't resort to fouling, he has decent skill and can use his height and reach well like with Foster Jr. It could be billed as the battle of the Manc destroyers as they have both beaten Manchester fighters.
