The Boxing Thread

[Number45]

That was a nice way to start the evening, hopefully the others will be as busy as that (I won't be staying up for all of them though, man-flu is taking hold!).

Froch if he wins this tournament has got the chance to be considered one of the best British middle/super middleweights for a long time. Most don't give him much of a chance in the final against Ward but if he could win it he deserves more recognition here

Watched the boxing last night, the fight between the 2 Edwards was pretty good. Well impressed with the main fight, David price looks tasty as a heavyweight! Super finish for him

I've pretty much watched all the boxing and ringside the last year...feel a lot more in touch now i have sky.

Although the sheer amount of boxing and different weights and fighters...I still consider myself a casual fan.

Anyway! Big one this Saturday...

Really looking forward to saturday, watching the build up stuff now

What a lovely bloke klitchko seems and what a classless piece of **** Haye is coming across as, i know hes flogging tickets and ppv's but shake the mans hand.

More i watch it more i hope haye gets smashed, mainly just hoping for a great fight, its a real 50:50 job

What time is the fight expected to start? I know the thing starts at 10 but how much rubbish will there be? I don't s'pose it'll be after midnight?

[merf]

Starts at 8 on sky and i'm expecting them in the ring 10ish, its in germany and klitschko fights usally round 10

Cant lose money backing either of them in the first 6 on betfair (assuming it ends in 1st 6 of course) , long looking odds

I think stealing cable is wrong, so I am choosing not to watch it in the hopes that others will follow my example. That's the last you'll hear from me on the matter. Thank you for your time.

I just want to call attention to the fact that I'm not watching this fight as my form of nonviolent protest.

I will be on the front lawn.

[toythatkills]

YAWN.

[phillai]

DOUBLE YAWN!

Hayemaker can retire happily now knowing that he's crap!

[Colin]

Poor fight. Very little genuine excitement. Klitschko always looked in control. I think Haye maybe edged the third, and had a decent go at one point in the twelfth, but his constant complaining made it clear throughout the fight that he could't step up to the required level.

[Stoppy2000]

Yes it was pretty poor. Ufc just outdoes boxing every time for me these days.

[Colin]

Klitschko walks out that ring a respectful man, Haye walks out with with excuses of a broken toe. Yeah, Klitschko did go for the push down when Haye was trying to come in, but eventually it became pantomime and Haye was clinging to it as a point deduction winner. He was falling about like a feather would drop him at one point. (he should never have been given a standing count mind)

[Neil]

****e.

Easy win.
