Boxing

Calm down guys, it'll get called off - I've bought tickets

[Mike]

One other thing that hacked me off about this being PPV, besides it being comical - ticket prices have gone up for it.

Last time me and a few mates went to watch boxing in the echo we paid £60 and got brilliant seats. Those seats were now over £80 and there's no way I'm paying that for this card! Instead we are sitting further back still, hoping the atmosphere is decent.

[Shaggy]

£80 for that?!

[Daniel 7]

Wow. £80? That's ridiculous. I'd go up to about £40 for those two and that would be about it. No way will I be paying PPV to watch this, whereas if it had been on SS1 or whatever, I might have given it a look.

My brother has more money than sense though, maybe he'll pay out for it - he did for the Froch v Groves one!

[Mike]

£80 for that?!

I won't bother telling you the ringside prices!

am i the only one who can't stand listening to bellew when he talks,i cringe when i hear some of the things he comes out with?

[Chris]

Nah you're in a big majority, he's an absolute bellend. Even more annoying given he then gets in the ring and after months of "I'm a smashing machine" "I'm willing to die in the ring" etc etc he spends most of the fight running away.

[Shaggy]

Yep total cringe merchant. Used to support him but he does my head in. Boring fighter and full of absolute horse ****.

Burns is shot to pieces, hope he retires as he'll get splattered by anyone competent at this weight.

[Zapater]

Didn't watch it, but I'm not a huge fan of Burns and doubt he'll make much of a splash at the weight. was he knocked down? I've never thought he was that good, but his last few fights have been pretty dire.

On Bellew, the guy is disgraceful. His loss to Stevenson was particularly cringe. Before the fight he was going on about how Stevenson is a midget with no chin and when he feels true power it'll be a KO victory. After Bellew puts in a nothing performance and gets knocked the **** out, he claims that he 'wasn't himself' and is shot at the weight and that when he moves to cruiserweight he'll be a top contender. It's so deluded. The Chilema fight too, both of them were close and could've gone either way but he acted like a **** saying he won every round.

[Chris]

Didnt get knocked down or anything, infact he won comfortably enough but just looked shot to ****, everything he used to do well seems to be gone. Sounds like he knew it aswell, this was his first fight at 140 but he spoke like he'll be moving back down again now after the fight. I guess we'll get the moving weight classes and trainers etc for a year or so now before he realises it's nothing to do with that and he's just past it.

[RichC]

That Beltran fight did for him he was totally outclassed and I don't think he's ever got over the broken jaw from that fight, mentally anyway.

Hopefully he's smart enough to know its time but boxers aren't well known for giving up when they should

Floyd Snr seems to be making Pacquiao noises.
