The Boxing Thread

He fought Martin Gethin, thought the judges had the score closer than it should have been imo.

Watched a "meet Derry Matthews" special on Boxnation before the fight and it showed him at Celtic Park were he has a brick with his name on it and YNWA.

 

That's it mate, seen it talked about on ringside last week, I think..

Think he trains a lot in scotland and some of his team are scottish, pretty sure on that one..

Always in a good fight derry, got a good support in liverpool because of the fights he's in..

 

Aye he trains with Stephen Simmonds and a couple more Scottish boxers.

You going to the next Burns fight?, I think his opponent has been hand picked for an easy night (probably rightly with recent form) but its the undercard that will be great imo.

Limmond v Woodhouse and Simmonds v Camacho.

Should be a cracker.

 

That's right mate, stephen simmons and the old boy and big * that are in boths corners usually..

I won't be going but I'll definitely be watching, been looking forward to the simmons/camacho fight ever since it was made, hopefully there isn't a second call off and simmons pummels him..

Limmond/woodhouse should be exactly what it says on the tin, a good stand up battle..

Yeah, to put ricky in again after how tough his last 3 fights have been with another of the calibre, would be soul destroying.. Ricky needs one or two for a confidence boost and maybe even a domestic dust up with someone like crolla down the line, which would be a big domestic fight.. He's a class above anyone over here though but he needs what we would call easier fights to get him back up to speed, another demoralising defeat and performance might be the end for ricky..

Let's hope not!

 

Just booked the Froch/Groves fight, hopefully be another great bout.

 

Aye likewise. Hope Froch does the business and shuts that cocky Groves the * up.

 

I'm actually hoping for a Groves win :icon_mrgreen: but cannae see him catching out Froch in the early rounds like he did last time, Froch will be ready for him this time, unfortunately.

 

This fight can't come quick enough am choking for it, a really hope Froch smashes his stupid face right in

And a like Groves as well but am way team Froch

 

Groves at 11/8 is a superb price. Money will be on him for this. Not too bothered about who actually wins though as long as it's a good scrap like the first one.

 

Am on Froch 4/6.

1st round knockout. 30 seconds in, left shot to the body followed by right uppercut. Night night ya wee *.

 

4/6 for predicting a 1st round k.o ?

 

No. 4/6 for predicting the final two shots before Groves goes down.

 

* odds

Round 3 ko,froch to win me thinks.

 

That's great odds. Wee sky diver on that and your laughing

 

Can't wait for this! Reckon Groves will win on points

froch comfortably this time

mark my words, watch a naive groves come out this saturday and a "learned his lesson" froch

 

Hoping it atleast goes to 5 or 6 rounds, nothing worse than getting yirself hyped up all week, settling down with a few beers, then bang.......over in first round :smiley-laughing002:

 

Ideally something like this will happen

 

No chance.

Sell you house/car/kidney/family and put it all on Groves.

 

I can not stand groves, * penny stamp thinking he's slick and a comedian, your anything but bud, drop the act..

I hope froch ruins him, groves is deffo the rattled out of the two as of yet, total contrast to the last build up..

froch stoppage in the 10th..

buzzing for this..
