Having just seen a close up of Dickinson, has anyone checked to see if he is Ian Holloway's son. He looks like he might burst into an improbable metaphor at any time.

[Batman]

I can't stand ian Holloway so on that basis I'm hoping Dickinson gets KTFO

[superheavyrhun]

Well, I guess I called the KO like a pro. Good win for McCarthy, showing he probably deserved the step up. He does ship a fair few punches, which might hurt him if he goes in against a guy with heavier hands.

[Batman]

Still early days for him though.

I didn't realise Tyrone Nurse was fighting, I like him purely because I have a habit of winning money on his fights for some reason, Connor Benn on the card as well, I'm guessing he will be in with a polish ice cream man or someone like that.

[Fenster]

If Connor Benn keeps fighting like his old man he won't last long

[Fenster]

Just a little bit wild.. blimey

[superheavyrhun]

Just a little bit wild.. blimey

I had more technique when I did my charity fight....this is just all out put everything into every punch! Benn is exciting though, got to give him that!

[Fenster]

Exciting but he won't have a career. He's toast up in class

[Batman]

Is it me or does Benn look uncomfortable when he throws the right?
He definitely needs to work on a few things.

I'm amazed I haven't heard them mentire Eubank Jr yet, I thought that was standard practice for the sky commentators

That might well be the case...but it'll be an exciting journey while it lasts. He's still learning, as he hasn't fought much before going pro, plus he's young so plenty of time to develop. He might be able to learn to box, if that's the approach they want to take.

[Fenster]

Yeah he's just a kid so will improve. However, they need to knock it out of him that he punches like his dad. He needs to win fights boxing not having a pub carpark shoot out. After that they'll give him plenty of "gimmes".... rightly so

[IamInuit]

I always figured Nurse would become a superstar.

[p4pking]

Not really looking like a superstar to me? Pretty slick, but he's getting tagged clean down the pipe and a bit slappy with his own shots. Lucky Limond seems to have little power.

[IamInuit]

Yeah he's an underachiever and his promotion has not been the best He lacks the drive I think. Like I said, I thought he would

[Fenster]

Limond should have quit by now. Home crowd not doing him any favours
