    Bye bye Barnes

    No surprise as Rosales did look stronger and bigger.

    Rosales wins from the body shot.

    1/66 combined odds for Fury/Frampton.

    Should be two epic contests.

    They need to put absolute certs in there for a good few fights before a big fight is made. Fury especially, he'll fight AJ or Wilder soon, after he is certain his ringrust has gone. He doesn't strike me as someone who is keen on fighting in Belfast against a nobody.

    TJ Doheny's title win, anyone see it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,022 ✭✭✭anthonyjmaher


    Jaysus, Fury is some unit.

    Rich Woodall is stiff, and Bunce is annoying, but I love David Haye on punditry - he's passionate and calls it like it is.

    137 losses.

    Has that lad got a mural on his chest?

    Haye is full of crap and hyperbole.

    Looks like Joe Joyce has left him too.

    Its probably the moveable fight, the one that fits in after an early stoppage, otherwise goes on last.

    I'm only reading about that now. He's interviewed on IFL about joining up with Al Hayman. May watch it later.

    I don't blame Joyce. Haye was embarrassing as a promoter at times. When he confronted Chisora about fighting Joyce at ringside after a Chisora fight I remember him making a tit of himself with Joyce in toe.
    As always, instead of looking after his own man he resorted to talking about himself.

    Fairly dull fight. Don't think I've ever seen a fighter with a 137 losses before.

    You would have to wonder what is the point in having the fight with the guy who has 137 losses on his record on the live TV schedule. Surely they should have put the Collins Jr fight on the live card instead? Did he win actually, I can't see it anywhere?

    This is so painful, and so pointless.

    I'm a big fan of Haye, but yeah that was very embarrassing.

    Strange that a guy has 137 losses but really looks like he knows what he's doing in there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 54,495 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Mayweather actually fought a lad in his last fight not as good as Warburton...

    a lot worse in fact


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,910 ✭✭✭normanoffside


    Interesting that there's not MTK branding on the ring. I also noticed Paddy Barnes had no MTK sign on his ring attire.

    Just goes to show if you have a big enough mouth anything is possible.

    He's a journeyman, paid to bring novice pros along, and he strikes me as excellent at his job
