The Boxing thread

As per usual Scott Quigg is written off on here but I guarantee he will win! A 100% confident and have been since the day the fight was announced.

Why do you think he will win Kev? You know I am a big Frampton fan hell go back to the first couple of pages on here and I predicted Frampton would be a world champion as would Andy Lee just think Frampton has it all. Just find it strange that 1 poor round by Frampton and people think Scott has the better chance. Dont read too much into Sky there big up all of the Matchroom fighters into the best fighters to ever lace them up. Quigg had a lot given to him and was lucky that way a ton of pressure on Quigg to preform. I just seen enough of Quigg and I know if Carl boxes at range it will be a easy night for him. Carl can mix it up too and has power to KO anyone. Put it this way shows you that Carl doesnt mind going to Manchester for the fight and his confidence is high. He has chased this fight for years and to finally get it on and all the bullshit talk from Hearn and Gallacher its all going to come to a end in a few weeks time. Both lads i like but i just think Carl is the fighter with more to his game than Scot.

Leighton we have crossed swords many times when it comes to you criticising Quigg-I like Frampton just think Scott will be to strong and hits very hard and the body shots will stop Frampton between rounds 8-10.

May the best man win.
 
Groves got the job done, his downfall in the past seems to be his concentration, getting tagged by silly shots. Great jab and hits hard, hopefully Shane works on his defence and he moves on.
 
A good solid start for George with Shane. I always think that they need 2 to 3 fights under a new trainer to see more improvement. So I think George and Shane may well work well together. Its a start a good win. Get George in with Paul Smith if he is still fighting. A win there might open up a fight with Arthur Abraham for Groves.

Kevin yeah we will see what happens. Get your money on that prediction. You never know it might happen. Just for the life of me watching both fighters we have seen what Quigg struggles with and what Frampton does. I think with Quigg he struggled with Sallinas who was a year out of the ring and he boxed Quigg and had him done with until he tired. Boxed keeping it at range. Quigg struggled in the first round with Kikos power yeah i know he won the fight but you could see him looking uncomfortable under the pressure and power. Carl can do both box on back foot behind a brilliant jab and go and pressure a fighter and knock them out. Carl looked bad in that first round of his last fight but got up and boxed his way to a comfortable win. Carl can revert back to a different plan. Think Carl wins the fight could stop him or could just keep him behind the jab all night long.
 
Kovalev looked the business last night, Pascal was getting beaten up but boxed on despite Freddie wanting to call it a day. Not sure who can cope with them shots, think ward would try to make it like the froch fight, get behind the jab, tigh him up and win ugly. Will be interesting to see how AD copes after moving up. He seems to got over his shoulder injury and back on track. Shame Paul smith didn't take him seriously, the fat ****.
 
The rematch nobody wanted. Not going to lie I thought Gonzalez beat Pascal before it aswell.[/QUOTE

Agreed mate, Pascal didn't do enough in the 1st fight to warrant another crack. There were accusations of racism from Pascals camp prior to this fight, not sure what that's all about.

Most people seem to think it was just an effort to get under Kovas skin. Pretty poor choice of ammunition though.
 
So with Klitschko beaten and Money retired who now is the pound for pound king these days. I think its so close to see who is the best out there now my top 5 and it changes a lot to be honest would be.
5 Danny Garcia
4 Guillermo Rigondeaux ( If he was more active he be top )
3 Andre Ward ( like Rigondeaux )
2 Gennady Golovkin
1 Sergey Kovalev

The top 2 for me changes fight after fight.

Also David Haye calling out AJ hopefully that happens in the summer.
