Hmmmm, I was unaware of that. Bit of a mixed bag then, since he has done some good things.
Throwing his hat into the professional boxing ring at thirty eight having never boxed before, is he having a laugh.
I boxed at amateur level in a charity event ten years ago at four years his junior and despite being in good physical shape the fight was hard work to say the least. Its not just about getting fit and throwing punches its ring craft, technique and the ability to take a punch. I don't mind admitting that I got battered, which was slightly easier to swallow after I found out my opponentc was a bit of a ringer and was a Mu Thai champion. So bad was My beating my mate said to me if you ever fight again have the theme tune from Casualty as your walk out music.
It's the arrogance of the prick thinking he'll be able to compete against fighters who've boxed all their lives just because he's do a bit of pad work and happens to be friendly with Anthony Joshua.
You can bet your bottom dollar his PR team will line up some turkey who'll be paid well to take a fall. I do however hope he ends up fighting a proper brawler who retires this arrogant excuse of a man before his boxing career starts.
Couldn't have put it any better myself.
And the technique on that pad work video that he posted is awful. All arms.
