Round Clark, but point deduction would call it even

Round Wardley

Round Wardley. Is he forcing Clark to fight at a pace he can’t sustain?

Round Clark

This could turn out a complete slugfest. Clark showing the amateur pedigree but though rough, Wardley has power to worry him. Even

Wardley wide open to the uppercut, replied with a big right. Close but I’d give that to Clark

Round Clark

Thought Kongo was comfortable against Marku. Kept it at range, stuck to his boxing & didn’t get involved in a scrap.

Felt sorry for the Spaniard that came to a complete halt, when his wheel spun out on that wet climb. Don’t think it would have affected the outcome, but would have made the race a lot more interesting.

Wardley/Clark on tonight.

Watching “Stable” the McGuigan documentary on BBC. Decent insight into the day to day running of a top flight boxing gym. Gives a glimmer of insight into what went on, in the background, with Frampton & Taylor.

Think the most tragic example was John Lambie. 11 years & 200+ games, before moving onto play in Europe with St Johnstone. Won the 1st division with 2 different clubs; & by a veritable street from Falkirk, with Accies, in 86. He actually left a safe job to come to Brockville because he wanted the gig! Right man at, most certainly, the wrong time. Doomed, from the minute the fans told Fulston they didn’t want him.

Maybe threatening to lead the players out on strike had something to do with it?

It’s only right that the young fans have their heroes; just like they did last time they won the Third Division, in 1980. For today’s Morrison, Miller, MacIver & Lang, fans then had Leetion, Perry, McRoberts & Brown.

IMO he’s made a mistake, as he should have signed for a Crawford defence directly after his Canelo defeat. Obviously want’s no part of Bud; & handing him 3x undisputed. Seems like the “You getting it next!” taunts, from the ring at the Spence fight, worked. Think Bud will take Tsyu & bounce on up again (as he’s 36). No time to fanny round uniting belts. Even then Charlo would still be left with a Spence fight as a possibility.

Take it Charlo has been stripped of both IBF & WBO?

You can’t have that opinion, even when those shareholders are still there, apparently “it’s not relevant”.

Some folk just can’t deal with honest opinion & like to surround themselves with sycophantic nonsense. I’m just surprised nobody’s mentioned unbeaten run?

The first half was memorable only for MacIver’s miss. That it took an hour for Falkirk to make changes, & get their finger out, including offside + pen decisions turning the game in their favour. It was looking like pushing the finishing line, back by a week, to Cove at home! Two fine finishes, from Henderson & Nesbitt, put a thick sheen of gloss, on edging a game where the score line flattered, when it was extremely close for an hour.

Caught the end of the Heaney fight. Looked desperately close & understand that it was a fight of two halves.

Glad I caught the end of the Joyce fight. Meant I didn’t have to watch the whole lot back.

“Hold on to that feeling”

indeed

The match officials called it as such. Those at the game would have had their opinion, right or wrong, on it. I watched on TV & thought it debatable, then with the benefit of replays, at the game end, could see it was a dive.
