They sure do get the quality ones don't they? ;D
Francis couldnt even get in shape when he was 25
he has no power in his fists
he has a suspect chin
he has no martial arts background
HOPE TO SEE HIM AGAINST GABRIAL GONZAGA SOON LOL ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
What on earth is Francis thinking? :-\
actually Dark Lord Al if u read the link ul find he has dabbled in various martial arts ;)
Im thinking he will get the piss beaten out of him in his first fight.
The dough must be half decent cos all he'll be doing is wincing and tapping.

Well the transition has been made the other way by Matt Skelton, who nobody can argue is a world great in boxing, but I think this is going to be embarrassing for Francis. Notice they signed him on a 2-fight deal, just in case he manages to fluke a win in his first.
You dont seriously think skelton is a world great do you?Quote:

The Towering Inferno Julius Francis....it's an appropriate name because in the end he always comes tumbling down and ends up in a heap of unrecognizable rubble.
Matt Skelton hasn't fought anyone good...put him in with a Klitschko or Sam Peter or Eddie Chambers or Chazz Witherspoon....they'd whip his ass.....just because you beat Audley Harrison and Danny Williams doesn't mean you're a great boxer.
Whoa. Both of you, STOP! Turn this train of shame back right now. Read again please. Nobody can argue is a world great. Therefore he is most certainly is not a world great. Hope that clears it up.Quote:
