Flintoff takes up boxing

[Tee]

Excellent. I kinda fear for Flintoff. Based on that documentary he just hasn't got that fighter's instinct. No shame in that.

Price will decimate Skelton

Yep, unfortunately Freddie just hasn't got that ruthless streak. But it will be very interesting to see. Shame I won't be able to watch it, bloody Boxnation!!

Any links would be appreciated this evening!

And the Price fight...as you said...

[Shaggy]

There'll be loads of links. No way am I paying for it

[PTP]

how many rounds is flintoff scheduled for? -

i reckon the pro has been told to 'make it last' a little bit, let it drag on so it looks like flintoff has had a go an not embarrased himself, and then bang...knock out

[Tee]

The so called 'pro' has only had 4 rounds of boxing in his professional career.

[PTP]

yeah but he's boxed through his life tho hasn't he? been in and around gyms, amateur etc etc?? at least i am assuming so.

either way it's going to be ****ing dire

[Shaggy]

It's four 2 minute rounds

Flintoff has lost about 4 stone for this - that's never good.

[Hollowman]

This will end in farce. He'll do a mischief to his knee or ankle ten seconds in, some nonsense like that.

[PTP]

****ing hell -

what dya reckon flintoffs entrance will be like? -

come out to "Barmy Army....Barmy Army......Everywhere we go...people wanna know..."

[PTP]

david price apparently not to happy about it, thinks it's a bit of joke

[Shaggy]

He's a real knucklehead but I'm quite fond of him - he provided some amazing cricketing moments. I just don't want him to get hurt.

[PTP]

he's a cricketing legend, and all round top, top bloke

i like him, and fair play to him to taking on a challenge like this....


for boxing tho, i want him to get sparked out - no damage tho

[Hollowman]

Surely he has to come in to the Flintstones.

yabbba dabba dooooooo

Really?!? No way man. I'd love it if he got pretty good.

[Hollowman]

If he was serious about the boxing as a pursuit rather than a ****ing circus, he probably should have entered the amateur game. Less chance of getting himself vedged and a sharper reliance on honing his skills.

Although, if he did get good it would be an amusing indictment of the British heavy scene.
