Quick mention about Mayweather...disgrace to boxing, not only for the cheap knockout but for being aggressive to the 80 year old Larry Merchant from HBO after the fight...lets hope Manny will knock this prick out. 

Ortiz should have been protecting himself and shouldn't have butted him.

I agree mate, but still a very cheap way to win a fight and no excuse for how he behaved towards Larry Merchant.

Tyson Fury is very raw and a long way from the finished article. However, he came in with a gameplan against Dereck Chisora and rightfully won the British title. Chisora obviously prefers cake to training (just like Danny Williams in the later stages of his career) as he came in at over 260lbs for the fight which is a disgrace.

Fury has little in the way of defence so he's got a fair bit to learn; however it appears he can take a shot and he has size on his side which makes him harder to deal with. For his size though he doesn't look like he's got one-punch KO power.

And to say "there's no-one" else isn't entirely fair: Unbeaten Olympic bronze medallist David Price is up and coming and he's not exactly small either at 6 ft 8 and 245lbs. He's fighting in a British title eliminator against John McDermott on Bonfire night so keep your eyes peeled.  :cool:

Lets just say he will never be world champ, terrible movement, very flat footed, just his size that makes him stand out, some one at 17 stone, 6ft, quick on there feet and a good reach would take him down, never seen him fight a good boxer, all his fights have been poor

Why are people so quick to shoot down talent in this country?
I think he was very quick considering his size, he just needs a really good coach.
