    Bowe/Lewis
    Khan/Brook
    Khan/Thaxton
    Hatton/Witter

    What other shameful ducking of fighters has there been involving a British fighter?

    Thoughts?

    I can't class Calzaghe Froch as a duck, Joe had already retired before Froch won a title

    Khan Brook the most shameful of recent years.

    Collins Calzaghe.

    Warrington Selby.

    The whole Fury/Price saga was laughable in hindsight.

    What does Warrington do for selbys stock? A duck is not a high risk low reward fight from a domestic fighter.

    Selbys looking at Frampton or mares so hardly a duck

    I think you have your wires crossed, Warrington ducked Selby, not the other way around

    Nah, it's not even up for debate really. Calzaghe was one of the top P4P fighters in the world at the time and Froch was still fighting domestic level comp. There was a few years between them unfortunately otherwise it could have been one of the great rivalries.

    Bellew ducking Joshua - what a missed opportunity to make serious wonga at the end of the Haye fight by jumping out of the ring and calling Josh a few names.

    He could not do any worse than all the puddings Josh has faced to date.

    Do a Davina Haye v Valuev, run for your life for 8-10 rounds then try and land a bomb when Josh fooked.

    Think all the fire has now left Bellew following in the footsteps of Mr Gypsy Queen from the Morecambe Caravan Park area.
