    For such little time to learn how to fight I think the lad done well myself and it appears the majority of forums members that dismiss Flintoff for getting into the ring, have never gone as far as watch a live fight never mind train or fight themselves
    I'm a fight fan, I've been to small hall fights, World title fight;s and Armature fights but I would
    not pay to see that crap. It's go's like this I no some pro's, after talking to them they think it's a joke
    giving out a Pro Licence, to a novice cricketer it belittles this sport.
    Guy's that have boxed, as kids holding down a job training and boxing as a pro, they are the hero's
    not some celeb want to be.

    Heroes are people who put their lives at risk for the betterment of others in my own opinion, never a boxer fighting for a purse, however, Flintoff has put himself on the line when he has no need to do so because he has always enjoyed boxing, fair play to him I say because I would rather watch his fight where he came to have a go than watch Johnson again who came to do as little as possible....I appreciate a fighter myself and Flintoff proved he was to me!

    I hope Freddie fights again but against a local fighter so that he is giving something back to local boxing. It is a good thing Flintoff fighting and credit to him for his performance. Barry must have some serious investment in him for making out that Freddie is better than what he really is.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
