I was reading the poignant article above, and got thinking about Mikey Perez and the other two lads that defected from Cuba to Ireland to turn pro.
Perez seems to be going ok and his last (only) defeat was to Klitschko’s most recent victim.
Alexei Collado, the flyweight, semmingly has a 15-0 record but has disappeared off the radar in the last 3 years.
Super middleweight, and Chelsea nemesis, Luis Garcia is 12-0 but again, not a peep.

After being smuggled out of Cuba, as the cream of world amateur boxing, has a few years living in Cork, surrounded by layabouts, robbed them of all hunger and motivation?

The stupid cunts went to Cork what did they expect,florida was the spot for them lads

Golovkin decks Monroe twice in the seond. First one was a peach of a left hook.
Monroe did very well to reach the bell but it shouldn’t last too much longer.

Well shut my mouth. Monroe might have nicked the third. Doesn’t look like he has the power to really trouble Golovkin though.

Ah fuck, this started early. Is it in Vegas?

4th for Monroe as well, Outpunching Golovkin but still not hurting him at all by the looks of things.

California

That makes sense.

Has GGG/Canelo been confirmed yet?

Monroe is boxing nicely but Golovkin is like a fuckin terminator. Eats punches and keeps coming forward.
Not landing half as much on Monroe but hurting him twice as much.

Monroe down again. Early body shot sickened him.
And that’s it. Got to his feet but ref waves it over. A little weird, looks like he wanted no more of it.

Round 6?

Yep.

Golovkin being interviewed and saying that he basically let Monroe have a couple of rounds just to give the fans their moneys worth.

Anyway, I’m for the leaba.

Froch - Golovkin?

Looks like. Would be good. Froch is tough but GGG will ate him.

Mike Perez at 240 for tomorrow night’s eliminator with Povetkin. The fat fucker.

Fat Cork bastard.

Good win for Spike O’Sullivan against some bum in Boston on the Degale undercard.

Froch criticising a boxer for walking forward taking shots. :rolleyes:
