As others have pointed out it's his serve that gets him into trouble. He hasn't won a tour match as he hasn't played that much on it at tour level. He has had four matches and taken sets off Bautista-Agut, Isner and now Goffin. He has also made the final of a European Clay Challenger in his...
Am I the only one who would have stuck with Millman? I think his game is far more suited to clay than Thompson's and he performed well against Goffin but I guess Hewitt would know best. Maybe the last tie has played a big factor in his decision. I also think given his condition, Darcis would...
She is one of the worst high profile judges in boxing. Should have been a sign it was fixed when she was made a judge. You don't have a judge like her scoring a big fight like this. Top Rank tried to get her pulled from a fight not too long ago because she is that bad.
I know a lot of it is the bookies covering their position but 1.25 on Mayweather is insane value. It's definitely going to be the biggest bet I have had for quite some time. Seems like a lot of people have been sucked in. Unfortunately I don't think this will be good for boxing (especially with...
10 days I would probably stick to somewhere in a similar timezone. Yeah Europe has a shitload to see but there is still a lot to see in East Asia and you will get more out of your holiday.
If not Japan have you thought about Korea? The Winter Olympics are going on in Korea at that time and...
As mentioned before people need to stop putting so much weight towards Compubox Numbers. They are very subjective (just look at what used to happen in the amateur ranks when it came to scoring punches) and we have no idea who was compiling the numbers yesterday. They even had Pacquiao landing...
The ironic part is that these computerised punch stats are simply people (less qualified than judges) pushing buttons based off what they see. It's completely subjective.
I'm always wary of compubox and this fight is a perfect example of why. At the end of the day they are subjective. It's people pushing buttons based on what they see. Also Pacquiao went to town in Rounds 8 and 9. That's where most of the difference would have come from. It's not hard to see how...
More excited about Kyle Sandilands vs David Campbell.
Hopefully they put on a good undercard though. I'm not expecting it but it would be a good way to draw a few people back to boxing.
Only problem with mixed events like the relays is the teams with stronger women are likely to be at an advantage compared to the teams with stronger men. It should still be interesting to watch anyway.
I quite liked Romania. I went to Sibiu, Cluj, Brasov and Iasi before going to Moldova and Transnistria and then to Bucharest so I can't help you too much with day trips unfortunately. Romania has a bit of a dodgy reputation (probably because of corruption and the Roma) but it's actually alright...
Financially he has nothing to lose and he is off to Memphis after that so with the right flight connections it's not much of a detour. Quito doesn't attract the strongest of draws and it's at altitude. While he is terrible on clay, the altitude lessens the disadvantage. If a player can adapt to...
I couldn't hear what was said but given Mundine was deducted a point then Green should have been given five minutes to recover. Maybe it wasn't picked up as on television as I would be very surprised if he wasn't offered it.
For me personally I spent a couple of days in Dubrovnik and felt like it was more than enough. But as a couple it might be a bit different and everyone has different interests. It's an amazing place but very touristy now. The Old Town is obviously a must. It gets very crowded but it's worth it...
Yes. That's why the cheap shot did not affect Green as much as some people are making it out to be. If Green was rattled by it he would have taken 5 minutes before resuming the bout.
I couldn't care if someone wins everything. I just hate the way Federer gets treated as royalty everywhere in the world meanwhile the same people will shit all over someone like Djokovic. Federer is not the angel he is made out to be. He was just an angel while he dominated everyone.
I have a bit of an odd question regarding stopovers in American Airports. I'm currently in Asia and I'm wanting to fly to Central or South America once I receive my new passport over here. I recently went to Iran so I'm not eligible for the Visa Waiver. Does anyone think I can get away with a...
Interested to see Murray against Rublev tonight. Rublev has massive potential if he can put it together in the future. Has quite a bit of an attitude though which could be interesting if he gives Murray a few problems early on and Murray starts having a whinge.
