Its very much like Warren's Christmas shows used to run, a long night of mismatches plus a cheap inhouse grudge match. From December 14 yrs ago: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/...offer-no-contest-in-entertainment-136158.html
Boxing Monthly once referred to a fighter that Johnny Nelson took on, on a Warren card, as "Tommy the Tongan Mystery Man" That article was written in response to the utter fiasco when Sky was changing over to Digital and viewers in England realized they couldn't order an ODLH fight{it was either Tito or Quartey} unless they had changed over to Digital, for which there was a 6 month waiting list. Instead of Oscar, we got Johnny Nelson, live from the High Wycombe Bingo Emporium. They referred to another Nelson fight as "Farce Factory" when he fought a hopelessly inept Canadian called Willard whose face was riddled with scar tissue before the fight started. Warren is a penis, Kelly Maloney has a penis, and so Edward Hearn has stepped into the breech and unopposed, riding high on a wave of sporting jingoism crescending from the London Olympics, is offering up loutish thugs, hopeless mismatches and utter crap as "Primetime Viewing". Fuck off.
Yep and No. That Quigg fight was reminiscent of everything the Brits used to say about German fights.......crap house fighter against an imported no-hoper, and a low-blow was needed to get the KO going and then we were told about Quiggs patience and tenacity and bright future at 126. OK.
No, he was patient, he patiently threw haymakers until he got the kid out of there after a low-blow set it up. That's patience. I used to know of a very good heavyweight who came out to Hotel California.
