Kell Brook will have his hands full with Carson Jones on July 7th. If he can come through he should be fighting for a world belt before the year is out. Could be a great fight. Ryan.

Don't know much about Carson Jones Ryan, what's he like? I looked at his record and he started his pro career pretty young and lost a few. Hopefully if Brook can get rid of him in good fashion and get the World title shot he's after.

Brook won't have to go looking for him Stuarty. He'll come forward throwing a lot, and is a pretty hurtful puncher, but gets caught quite easily and tends to be over reliant on his chin to get him out of trouble. But he's ranked no.3 by the IBF so it's a great opportunity for Brook. It's a step up in class for Brook, but I think it's a step up for Jones too. Ryan.

I don't know about anyone else here, but I'm gutted Lamont Peterson has failed a drugs test and the rematch with Amir Khan has been called off. I was looking forward to that fight even more than Mayweather v Cotto.

Khan must be fairly pleased though, because there's a good chance he'll get the belts back. Might also get the first fight changed to a no contest. Ryan.

The guy took drugs so had an unfair advantage so first fight should be no result

I see the BBBOC has issued a statement condenming the Haye v Chisora fight and they have also threatened to suspend anyone taking part in the events license including Frank Warren. I can't believe Warren is willing to risk not only his own livelihood but that of every fighter that fights under his promotional banner. If Warrens promoters license was to be suspended then it would no doubt effect all the fighters that are contracted to his stable. If they under contract it's not as if they can just move on to Eddie Hearn, Frank Maloney, Ricky Hatton etc.... We've seen fighters try this with Warren in the past and nine times out of ten it ends up in a messy leagl wrangle.

Stuarty

Frank Warren is really putting it up to the BBBofC Stuarty.

The statement says "For the avoidance of doubt, any member of the British Boxing Board of Control who participates in any way in such a promotion will be deemed to have terminated his/her membership of the British Boxing Board of Control and his/her licence therewith, for the reasons stated above".

The problem for the BBBofC is that they cannot legally stop the promotion from going ahead, but it sets a very dangerous precedent, as it opens the door for any governing body to use European trade laws to sidestep the national governing bodies in the EU and put on promotions regardless.

Despite what Ed003 thinks (no offence Ed, respect your opinion but disagree with you on this :-), it massively undermines the BBBofC, and indirectly every other governing body in the EU. I would go so far as to say that it challenges the very relevance of their existence. Warren is an excellent promoter but I wonder what this will do to the sport in the long term.

Of course it's potentially a masterstroke by Warren from a promotional point of view, because he will be hoping to get a lot of new subscribers to BoxNation on the back of all this, and if the numbers stack up he won't care tuppence what the BBBofC thinks.

Interested to hear what you, ED, and anyone else thinks. Ryan.

(0)

Yeah Ryan of course it undermines the authority of the Board mate. It also sends out the wrong message to young up & coming fighters. If i were a fighter in Warrens stable i would be pretty worried about any sanctions placed on my promoter if he goes ahead with the fight. Don't get me wrong i'll watch it and reckon it should be a cracking fight but the timing is all wrong. I think it's a case of Warren striking while the iron is hot and Munich is still fresh in everyones mind. I would not be surprised if the fight doesn't go ahead tbh.

Stuarty

Yeah of course the irony is that politics aside, it's a fight we all want to see. Ryan.

After all the drama of the first fight i was more than looking forward to Khan v Peterson 2 next week. Bit disapointed the fight has been cancelled but cancelling the bout is the only action that could have been taken. I know think the fight should be scrapped from each fighters record and Peterson should be stripped of his titles. There is just far too much controversy surrounding that fight now imo. There is probably no time now to find a suitable replacement for next week and all the hard work Khan has put in would have been for nothing. It looks like Floyd Mayweather has a valid point about this olympic drug testing he is always pushing for.

Stuarty

First fight should defo be void and Khan get the titles back. So much controversey

Apparently Peterson has admitted taking the pellets in October. If that's true Khan has a very strong case, but with two governing bodies involved you never know Stuarty. Ryan

I think it's too soon for the Haye v Chisora fight to be happening. I'm not dead against it but the timing is all wrong. Outside of the Klitschkos it's arguably the most exciting fight that could be made in the division. However i don't think either guy realises how lucky they are not to face a prison sentence in Germany for their actions and neither of them has really shown any genuine remorse for the incident imo. Boxing is a second chance sport and while Haye is no angel Chisora seems to be on his 5th or 6th chance! If the fight does go ahead as planned i hope all is left in the ring and these two have learned a lesson and don't drag our Sports name through the mud again.

I hate how much stick haye gets for not being a good boxer.

The guy as a heavy weight champion...he took the title from valuez...a guy the klitchko's wouldnt fight.

Yes haye was terrible against vlad but people forget he was a brilliant cruiser weight.....possibly one of the best of the past 20 years.

You just knew it had to happen but it has the potential to be very damaging to the image of the sport.

It also completely undermines the BBBofC.

Ryan. {Ed003's Note - It's nothing to do with the BBBof C, Ryan }

(0)
(1)

Ed003.... The BBBofC is the governing body for professional boxing in the UK as we all know.

A high profile professional contest happening within their jurisdiction that has not been sanctioned by them, involving two boxers who are not current licence holders with the BBBofC completely undermines their role as the governing body.

Just because they have not sanctioned this fight does not mean it has nothing to do with them.

Ryan {Ed003's Note - Well it Doesn't really,if you feel they have been undermined fair enough}

Glad I stayed up to watch Mayweather Cotto last night. Great fight. You can see now why Pacquiao fought Cotto at 145. If they fought at 154 I'd put my house on Cotto.

So sorry to see Paul McCloskey come up short against DeMarcus Corley, and I hope he takes some time out to consider where he goes from here.

Well done to Eamonn O'Kane and Terry O'Connor for winning Prizefighter. I'm sure JJ McDonagh will fancy his chances against either one of them in a re-match.

Apparently Kell Brook is supposed to be announcing his next opponent next week on Ringside. Who does everybody reckon it will be? I think Zab Juddah is a decent shout. Most of the big name Welters are all otherwise engaged at the moment and Juddah is coming off the back of a good ko win against Vernon Paris.

Stuarty

Looks like i'm wrong lol! Just read somewhere that Judah will be fighting JM Marquez in July! Back to the drawing board. Better be someone good though. Brook has to step it up Big time this year.

Stuarty

Maybe Ashley Theophane would be a good match of styles? I know he's not a big name but he's a very underrated fighter in my opinion! I think he may have a British title defence coming up though! Roll on Thursday and hopefully Hearn can deliver a good opponent because i reckon Brook is the next big star of British Boxing!

Could be a terrific contest between Anthony Fitzgerald and Eamonn O'Kane in Belfast this Saturday on the Irish middleweight Prizefighter. They're on first, and the winner of that fight will be strong favourite to pick up the 32k.
Also hope Paul McCloskey can beat DeMarcus Corley and get another world title shot. Corley might be 37, but he'll be dangerous early on. Ryan.

(0)
(0)

Aye Ryan i hope McCloskey can get not only a win but a good win! He'd do well to stop Corley. Hopefully the fight doesn't clash with the Huck v Afolabi fight because i reckon that should be a cracker aswell. Coffee and Red Bull at the ready for the big one later!

Stuarty

(0)
(0)

McCloskey is done at World level now. Pity as he was entertaining enough but he should be seeing off guys like Demarcus Corley to be honest! Fair play to Corley though! He deserves one last title shot now and i hope he gets it!

Stuarty

(0)
(0)

You're right Stuarty. McCloskey should retire. He's been way too easy to hit in the last couple of fights. Wouldn't like to see him get hurt. A really good boxer, but Corley outclassed him. Ryan.

i would like to congratulate tony bellew on a great win last night, he has now proved that he is the real deal. this once very raw looking ugly duckling, has most definitely turned into a swan. the demolition job on macintosh, was the latest chapter, which will surely see him get another crack at a world title. although i really rate cleverly....i feel he is running scared of bellew, the deal was that if the fight they had was close, that they would grant each other a re-match. this has not come to pass, and the only reason i can think of, is that he knows he got away with murder the first time!, why else would he be fighting a guy rated No 83?....so come on nathan, show some bottle, we all want the re-match, dont go down in history as the guy who dodged class fighters to earn easy money fighting bums!.. the winkmeister

(0)
(0)

I couldn't go Bellew til the Cleverly fight now i am a big fan! I thought he was all mouth but he's a grafter that wears his heart on his sleeve and i can't help but really like the guy! I think he sells himself short in the skill department! He's a right good fighter and i reckon him and Cleverly would serve up another classic if they fought again! My money would be on Bellew in a rematch!

What's everybodys opinion on the Mayweather v Cotto fight? I personaly can't see Cotto causing an upset. I initially thought Mayweather might be a bit side-tracked with 90 days jail time looming but i've been watching 24/7 and if he is he's hiding it well. Cotto seems quietly confident as ever but it's a mountain of a task he faces.

Stuarty

(2)
(0)

I think this one will come down to speed Stuarty. Mayweather should win a comfortable decision. If Cotto starts to run out of gas in the later rounds, there might be a stoppage, but I like Cotto and hope it goes the distance. Can't really see him winning. The big question for me is will Larry Merchant ask Mayweather about prison after the fight and how will he react! Ryan

(0)
(0)

Haha aye mate mad Larry! I like Cotto aswell bud but i can't help but love Mayweather. I agree i reckon Mayweather will be too fast and accurate for him. I'd like to see Cotto get a couple of rounds in the bank early that would make the fight more interesting. I don't think Pacquiao will have things all his own way against Bradley. Bradley is horrible to watch though so i reckon Pacquiao is on a hiding to nothing win or lose.

Stuarty

(0)
(0)

It'll be interesting to see what Cotto weighs on Saturday night. At least mid 160's. Mayweather won't be too bothered about making 154 and could come in a bit under. Ryan.

Aye Kev Crolla showed a bit of inexperience geting dragged in to a war. Great fight though and i'd love to see it again. Burns v Mitchell should be a cracker if it happens. My moneys on Burns but it depends on what Kevin Mitchell shows up on the night.

Didnt catch the fight but he looks really up for it the fight id pay to watch would be broner vs ricky burns we would get to see what burns is made of and whoever wins that fight will reign the belt for years dont see alot breaking through that are good enough these days well from the uk

Burns and broner fight in different divisions now. Broner has burns' old wbo superfeatherweight belt n burns has the lightweight version. I'm going to burns v Moses, can't wait!!

(0)
(1)

I think It was meant if Broner stepped upto lightweight although i do think it's abit off the mark whoever would win between them would rule the division implying Burns could rule the division have you forgot about Marquez, Rios, Geurrero all operate at a higher level to Burns although i do feel Broner could step up and challenge the top fighter in the lightweight,light-welterweight and welterweight division within time as he's only 22yrs old.

Povetkin is a good boxer and getting better with each fight as he's still young but i dont think he has the beating of Vitali but he may give Valdimer a test whether he beats him is another story.

ppl condeming chisora's actions but if you look at it why did haye speak at the press confrence? to disrespect chisora performance and try get him another shot. haye needs to shut his mouth and start fighting one or two fights b4 callin out klitschko again. chisora actions wasnt perfect but still he put a fight in against klitschko. compared to haye v klitschko and harrison v haye the last big britsh fightet fights, chisora do very well flying the flag. apart from the slap and spitting water of course. so people stop condeming chisora blame both of them for there actions and hope for the fight beween them.

(2)
(4)

Please remember chisora almost got sent to prison for beating his girlfriend and also got arrested for carrying an offensive weapon. Then he slaps vitali and spits in wladimirs face, threatons to beat haye up too, the guys a widebeating thug who promotes the "gangster" culture. He's a complete scum bag and got what was coming to him.
Whilst it isn't good for boxing as a whole I'm glad haye dropped him.

Ashy {Ed001's Note - I can't stand Haye, but he did go up in my estimation for giving Chisora grief. Chisora is the kind of thug that doesn't deserve the chance to make good money.}

(2)
(1)

Thanks for that ed, granted haye has a big mouth and he's used it to make fights but being a thug is completely different

Ashy {Ed001's Note - Chisora is just a wannabe gangster, he needs to grow up and realise he is a boxer and should respect his opponents.}

(1)
(1)

Has anyone actually seen the footage Chisora is a thug dont get me wrong and i'm not a fan of either but Haye interupted the press conference to catch the lime light and chisora wanted his 5 mins of fame which were well deserved after the performanc he put in.
haye threw the first punch and then haye picked a camera tripod up and hit chisora with that to so is Chisora the instegator or was he defending himself.
Cleav81 {Ed001's Note - I have seen the footage, and I agree with you up to a point, except that Haye threw the punch because Chisora would have otherwise. Chisora is a knob, he has brought it on himself with his disgusting antics, spitting on people and slapping them. He should have had a ban from fighting for those incidents.}

(0)
(0)

The sad thing is that slapping Vitali, spitting at Wladimir, and fighting Haye has taken everyone's attention away from a great performance by Chisora. Although he lost, he took the fight to Vitali for the full 12 rounds, and gave him his toughest fight for years. But what a complete muppet he is, because it's going to be so hard to get him meaningful fights now. He deserves a ban, and it won't make much difference, because the Klitchkos and Haye won't touch him. He has ruined his career and has nobody to blame but himself. Ryan.

(0)
(0)

Chisora IS a thug, I for one is happy Haye didnt back down from a bully, don't forget chisora is a girlfriend beater, caught with a illegal weapon, He was suspended for 4 months for biting Paul Butlin, Assaulting a police officer and kissing carl baker at a weigh-in and don't forget spitting and slapping the honourable klitschko's, chisora is a monster he should never box again!

20 Feb 2012 16:01:58
i am not a haye fan, but chisora is a luny! simple as that! what did warren think would happen? two big guys, boxers/fighters squaring off? haye defened himself, chisora thinks he's a gangster? and can do anything he wants! if they fought? haye would stop chisora, haye too fast for chisora, how did he get a shot? he lost to fury

(2)
(3)

Have you seen the footage for one it's nothing to do with Warren Haye interupted Chisora's press conference to offer Klitchko out which in all fairness was extremely rude and all Chisora did was walk upto him telling him to do one. Haye threw the first punch and instergated the brawl. But i do agree Haye would win if/when the two meet although i feel you should give Chisora credit for his performance against the european champ Helenius and he went 12 rounds with VITALI KLITCHKO and didn't get knocked out so he definatly deserves some credit. And i'm by far a Chisora fan before you say but appreciate the effort.
Cleav81

(3)
(2)

Chisora was already talking about what he was going to do to haye. Haye was trying to talk his way into a fight. Chisora got in a fight with fury before their fight too remember he's a trouble maker. If haye didn't hit him first you know for a fact he would of hit haye. If you was in Hayes position would you not of took the first shot?

Ashy

20 Feb 2012 08:50:58
I don't think Haye had any choice but to crack Chisora right on the dial! Chisora is a bully and walked over to Haye. I reckon it was hit or be hit. Not great for the sport but these things happen. In a fight Haye beats Chisora easily in my opinion, probably by stoppage.

Stuarty

(5)
(1)

I nwouldn't be so sure about that, I agree that Chisora is a bully, thug or whatever you want to say, but he does have power that can cause problems and keeps walking forward which Haye won't like. I'm not a haye fan but i don't buy into the fact that he had to throw the punch and certainly not the need to wave bottles about......

19 Feb 2012 11:28:07
nice one haye and chisora you muppets

Seriously though,chisora is a thug and should get a lengthy ban.aoe

Both them are a disgrace to the uk boxing scene, chisoras a thug and has no respect while haye is a big headed nobody who use to think he was god till he got put in his place i wouldnt even pay for that fight two of the uks biggest knobs in one ring..

fury pulled out of price match up
so disappointing,price looks the absolute business
but needs a real challenge, fury running scared according to price aoe

(1)
(1)

Fury has totally shat his pants. He's a big fud. Terrible boxer. Price looked the business n I think he would knock fury out. Furys talking about how he's goin for a world title fight. The klitchkos will pummel him into the ground. And I think David hate would take care of both price and fury with ease. Although I think price will b a gd Ina couple of years with the right fights

(1)
(1)

Who to believe hey Price says Fury is ducking him along with Maloney and Fury said he wants to move onto a world title shot and Henessey says he previously offered Maloney 100k for the pair to fight so who to believe hey maybe price werent ready when he was offered Fury and now after going and sparring in Germany and America he's ready and Fury wants his chance at the top although i feel he should try The European Champ first Helenius

(2)
(0)

If you saw Ringside this week even Ricky Hatton said dont believe the hype Fury is a couple of fights ahead of Price and sees Chisora who he did do a good job on remember fighting a Klitchko so he's either going after Helenius for the european title or Povetkin for the WBA title but its definatley a fight for the future

David price looked very powerfull last night at last i looks like we have a heavyweight that could beat the klitchco brothers obviously mcdermott isnt in the same class as the klitchcos but i think a rematch against fury then a shot.the first fight againts fury was in the amatures.

(3)
(2)

He did look impressive last night i wasn't expecting it to be over so soon im not sure if fury will want to take price on after last night he did him in the amateurs as well and out of the 2 price looks to have improved the most

When you said out of the two price seems to have improved the most. Did you even watch either in the amateur "s or you taking crap. I did watch price in Olympic games he has improve so much so I would agree with you but didn't see Tyson is can really say if the fight was to happen I feel price would knock Tyson out in the middle of the fight as Tyson look a class below going of the fight I have seen

True although i feel this will be Brooks last fight before he steps up against a world champion as remember Hatton is coming off taking the new golden boy in Alvarez 12 rounds.

Nelson Vazquez, the most experienced judge on the night by a long way, scored it 115-110 in favour of Khan. Peterson's story is fairytale stuff, and Khan is a bit irritating, but he's entitled to feel hard done by. It was an awful decision. Ryan.

An awful decision for me khan lost that fight by 2 rounds without the deductions as peterson had a plan keep his head bordering on low but not low enough to be pennulised some of the greats did it Fraser and Holyfield to name a few and he kept on Khan not giving him the space to use his speed effectively for 6-7 rounds of the fight with 2 rounds which were close for both guys and remember khan broke the rules by pushing continually through the fight as he was scared to fight on the inside incase he got cut.Cause the more brawls he's in the less likely he'll beat the top guys like mayweather as they'ed target scare tissue. Khan needs to stop moaning and get out there and prove he's the better fighter if he believes he is but Peterson is looking at Pacqiuo and Bradley next rather than a rematch to make the big money for me Khan should just step up to welterweight as he'll just waste time getting himself into position to challenge again.

i must admit the man does look suspicious but it doesnt change my views on the fight. Khan deserved to lose regardless of what happened with the mystery man. Khan is a bad looser full stop.

What is wrong with some people, you probably think the ref was right in deducting the points because of so called rules but the rules also state that the guy should have been nowhere near the judged

you cant have it both ways

Khan got screwed

I believe Khan lost the fight without bringing the deductions into it you know Peterson took Khan out of his game plan for 6-7 rounds yeah so thats petrson leading in the fight and then 2 rounds which were close and remember it was in Petersons home town and country so they went to him just the same as any home fighter gets the advantage when fighting thats why they say dont leave it to the judges.
Khan was taken out his game plan and was very niave to assume he'd get the decision in the other guys home town it just doesnt happen unless by ko/tko.
