Top man, cheers!
+1Also Ryan Burnett looked absolute class ripping the belt off Haskins. Hat's off to him for fighting another champ in zhakyanov who is strong as an ox...interesti g seeing burnetts comments admitting he always came off second best when they sparred when both were with Ricky Hatton. But Burnett was a teenager and zakhyanov was 27....burnett seems to have come on so much under booth and i can't wait to see the fight!!

Oddly enough, Hatton saw the sparring the other way...!Also Ryan Burnett looked absolute class ripping the belt off Haskins.

“They've sparred together and Ryan probably just edged the sessions with those big gloves and head guard but times and circumstances change.”
Just heard Michael Buffer interviewed on 5Live, as he’s ‘announcing’ the start of the US Grand Prix this weekend. Two things:
1) That’s the first time I can recall having heard him speak ‘normally’...don’t think I’d have recognised him if the presenter hadn’t said his name!
2) Apparently he’s worth $400m!!!!! Floyd Mayweather jr has earned more than that, but I can’t think of anyone else in boxing that’s made that kind of dough!!!

isn't he on a flat fee of $1 mill a fight?... if so not hard to see such a high net worth.....lucky 1) That’s the first time I can recall having heard him speak ‘normally’...don’t think I’d have recognised him if the presenter hadn’t said his name!

Boxing on Dave (Sky 111) at 9pm. Look out for Michel “Venom” Page. He’s a multi-time world kickboxing champ transitioning to the ring. I used to train with him and as a martial artist he was (Is) phenomenal. Could be interesting, he’s signed to David Haye label
What an irritating bellend he is, trying way to hard to show he has a personality and weird style. His opponent has a worse record than my nan, so he shouldn't have much trouble really.All that sillyness is fine against a nobody, but he would get ruined by anyone half decent
