I like Rawling actually- I think he's a very good boxing commentator. The guy knows the sport well and is obviously very passionate about it, unlike that shill Darke who has decended into 'pay and say' over the last five years or so. Woodhall is okay, too. The rest, though, are cack. Keys especially is awful. MTF
Rawlling lives in a crevice in a fold of a corner of David Haye's Chocolate Starfish. :nono: Look at this Drummer Boy nonsense. U2 Shite.
It's the re-writing of history which annoys. He was offered a place in the Super-Six (according to Ward, Kessler and Froch). He refused, and chose to fight stiffs and Andrade's/Magee's instead. The result, after all the best 168lb-ers have punched each other to death, is that otherwise reputable sources now have Bute at No.1 in the division. everything that is wrong with the sport can be shown in this nonsense. The guy can fight but he is on the outside profiting when he should have been inside trying to be the best. Fuck Bute. MTF
Yeah, his Haye schitck is annoying. but it was no worse than Darke, who practically made base camp on Haye's perenium and stayed there for years. MTF
Fairly tepid first round. Bute landing the better shots near the end. UK commentators giving it large about 'The No.1 in the world. meetthefeebles nearly punches his TV. MTF
Same sort of thing second round. Glen just can't get extension on his punches- pawing, rather than punching with any authority. The 'great champion' is 'luring Johnson into a false sense of security', apparently, though to me it looks like he's doing the bare minimum to win rounds. MTF :dunno:
Third round- Johnson walking forward, throwing half extended punches. The last thirty seconds Bute threw more and landed a couple (and no more) of punches here and there. Disinteresting round, probably Bute's as he is at home. Hard to score. Bute is likely 3-0 up yet he's landed maybe five or six half decent shots in the fight. MTF
Johnson still coming forward but not really landing much. Bute looks comfortable but is doing very little to win rounds, really. MTF
If Johnson had extension this would be a good round. He's landed some good right hands but they have nothing on them. MTF
Johnson's round for me. Bute won the last 30 seconds but Johnson landed more that round albeit with nothing much on anything. Johnson looks very old (he is) and Bute looks very average (he is) MTF
