yep...if he was 15 years younger.
i think choi will be even more avoided now. i don't think the wbu belt is adequate reward to put a prospect in with him
matthews should have been brought up v the british title route.
at least if boxers go that route they have legacy and a proper title.
i would rather have 1 british title LONSDALE belt than 10 WBU DEFENSES.
not everyone can be a world champ and matthews clearly will not reach the that level but i hope that he is allowed to focus and fight at british title level .

But now he's the unified WBF/WBU champion :lol:
I'd be happy Matthews lost , if he hadn't lost me money too .
First time I went into a bookies in my life , with Khan , Matthews , Sturm and Cotto on an accumulator , stake of €20 with a possible profit of €30 , and the Scouser goes and gets blown away by the avoided Mongoalian :-( .
With those two upsets(Crolla losing to Al Hamidi aswell) ****** might become even more protective then he has been .

nah he got outboxed, he got outclassed. He didnt have any answers for choi, so basically he got outboxed, and outclassed by the better fighter.
Derrys still a good fighter, he just picked the wrong man to mess with, chois a tough little man, hes a little warrior. Fair play to derry though he stepped up and took the challenge which no1 wanted to do
he should get a rematch if he thinks he got his tactics wrong

Choi reminded me of a more ring smart version of the martinez guy that starched dunne and got beat by munroe.
Matthews had the height and reach to do what munroe did, but stupidly tried to trade with him far too often, even when he was hit and hurt he tried to fight fire with fire, which is crazy given that choi had never been stopped and derry is not exactly a big puncher, aswell as being a bit chinny.

As for Simpson he wouldn't be British champ If Derry had chosen to fight for his belt Instead of the WBU and was clearly beaten still, It wouldn't of been close If It wasn't for the point deductions and knockdown. I would of agreed with a DQ winfor John but since Derry didn't get DQ John lost clearly as Derry landed more. John was the agressor but you score cleaner punches not agression.
If John struggles with the likes of Al Hamidi like he did then Choi would beat him too and he would not win the European.
He will beat Appleby because Appleby ain't ready yet and Is being rushed though.

I laughed and laughed at that obnoxious cunt Matthews taking a beating.
Theres no doubt Derry ripping Simpsons cut wide open like that & then gloating about it afterwards having 'dirty' on his shorts turned people off him.
It would be like that Taylor guy who plays for Birmingham returning to action with 'tasty tackle Taylor' on his shirt after he wrecked that Arsenal plyers leg.
Of course he didnt, but Derry did, & people on these shores dont like that attitude.
Matthews has created a rod for his own back with his actions. No wonder people are laughing at him. & Its all his own fault. The guy should have admitted he was an asshole in that fight instead of gloating about it, & maybe he would have won some fans & respect back. But he mixes with footballers, & they are the most arrogant cunts on earth. maybe that mentality rubbed off on him like he rubbed Simpsons cut that night, who knows?

I was well chuffed when they said Choi was from Oldham. Made me laugh my head off.
Dont like Derry was glad he got pole axed.
A question tho.
If that was Oscar Delya Hoya rolling on the floor on the 5th knock down would people have said he was play acting?
PS Does Derry have the strangest build in boxing he has muscle on the ends of his shoulders it looks like someone has put padding under his skin. For someone so tall he didnt use his height very well hes got such a wide stance he ends up giving the height advantage away
Even boxing news and monthly had Derry winning, only bitter Scots and you had Simpson winning.
Well, I'm not a bitter scot and I firmly believe Simpson deserved a draw at least against Matthews.
Continuing the scottish theme, this Choi win makes Willie Limonds victory over him a few years back look even more impressive.
I'm no fan of Matthews but I never rejoice when a british boxer suffers what was quite a humiliating defeat. He looked really devastated when talking to the cameras afterwards but made no excuses so credit for that.

He will beat Appleby because Appleby ain't ready yet and Is being rushed though.
Derry deserves credit for fighting a guy whos ducked though and gave a good try, he can learn from this and come back from It, he Is better than Simpson and the other domestic featherweights.
So because Derry decides for the 1st time in his career to step up and fight a decent fighter he should get credit??? John has did that all his career. hes fought champions Dazzo williams, your boy Matthews all in there own back yard. hes came to london to fight Foster Jr and even once he had came to england and won the belt he still had to come back down to London to defend it twice against ryan barrett and andy morris.
derry could learn 1 thing though John has came back much stronger from his defeats and made him a much better boxer.
Aa for Appleby being too inexperienced What about Matthew Marsh?? he isnt even a featherweight and still gets a shot at a supposed world title in like only his 10th fight??

Some Scots jump on Derry but were defending Simpson's second fight against Morris when that cut wasn't enough to be stopped. Not for the 1st time, he beat Foster Jr on 2 weeks notice which your boy Simpson couldn't do and Derry beat him easy.
Matthews needs to learn not to trade as I was suprised he lacked the strength despite being 5ft 9 which Is big for a featheweight. He needs to defend against hooks more too and thats what Simpson knocked him down with.

Foster was dead at the weight and, as SFW, he looked much better. The guy that gave Arthur hell would have blasted Derry.
Derry is a little shit, always mouthing off and playing the bad boy. he took a beating and it's that simple - he didn't just lose, he got humiliated.
Not seen any Interviews with him blasting off.
Dead at the weight yet was only 9st 2 at Super Feather? Arthur should of battered a come forward fighter like Foster though, Guzman's going to paste Arthur and I like Arthur.

Guzman would beat Foster Jr easy and wouldn't of got knocked down by him.
Arthur's strong and can throw good combinations but he shouldn't of been manhandled by the smaller man In there and can be too much of a slow starter.
I can Guzman being too fast and winning on points.

You said Guzman would get pasted max. Therefore, you are on my massive list of people to laugh at when Arthur wins.
You know me max, when anyone vociferously picks against the scot, it releases the beast in me.

Dunky, do you really think Arthur will beat Guzman? I like AAA, but this is a fight he will lose. AA had a rough time against foster and Guzman although i think is overrated IS a class above Foster. Just because people think Arthur will lose, it doesn't mean they are anti scottish or a hater of Arthur, they are just looking at the facts. Guzman has mixed in better class and technically he is better than AAA.
I hope you are right and prove everyone wrong, for British boxing, but i can't see it happening.

True I did say he's getting pasted.
I predict this based on styles rather than just simply saying Joan Is In a higher league and fought better fighters unlike most.
If Arthur wins you deserve to laugh Dunkster.:deal

Im just having a laugh with you Max my good man, I dont mind you saying what you do when there are so many people having a pop at the fighter you like cos he got beat.
If I was in your shoes, I would have been a whole lot nastier to everyone who was having a go at you & Derry! If Arthur wins I will be only laughing at the haters, no worries. Your safe Max;)
& in the cold light of day, Derry was caught unawares by a highly motivated wily strong avoided opponent. Shit happens from time to time, just ask Alex Arthur, he underestimated Gomez & got KO'd, but look where he is now, on the brink of superstardom if he can beat Guzman.
& Choi is a far superior fighter to Gomez IMO. So who knows what the future holds for Matthews, he could come back stronger for his defeat like Arthur did.
a defeat aint the end of the world for a fighter, I always tell people that here.

Guzman rules. He's the undertaker and he's controlling Arthur's destiny to either a cremation or burial.

Now thats what hurts, when people like yourself ask me if I REALLY think Arthur will win, like Im just blindly backing Arthur cos hes a scot. I have always said Guzman is overrated, he has never impressed me that much. Look at his record Taff, its not all that, & he isnt the biggest or strongest fighter in the division.
Hes also fighting against a big natural super-feather in Alex Arthur, a former british, commonwealth & european champion with a great amateur pedigree with sound boxing skills, sound power & a good jab & throws a mean left hook to the body.
Sit back & think about it with a clear head, dont listen to the Guzman loving & this fight suddenly isnt a mismatch. Guzman is fighting a european champion who is in his prime in his own backyard. Thats not what I would call an easy nights work. & then look at Guzmans KO record since hes stepped up in weight, he hasnt carried his power up the weights.
But I know this post is like whistling in the wind, peoples minds are already made up that Guzman is fighting a no-hoper cos Arthur suffered a flash knockdown in his last fight. People say its Arthur that doesnt know what hes let himself in for, but IMO its Guzman that has made the mistake taking this fight.
Of course Arthur can win. & he WILL win IMO.

Because Guzman was previously a super-bantamweight, that makes things decieving. Make no mistake about it, Guzman is one of the biggest and strongest in the division. He weighed in at 132 1/2lbs for a non-title fight, the one before Barrios, and amazingly stepped on the scales on fight night at a whopping 147lbs. Thats coming in as a welterweight. Just under a full stone between the weigh-in and fight time.
Pacquiao comes under the same criteria. He's moved up about four weights and is not struggling to make super-featherweight.
If anyone is naturally bigger than the other in this fight, It's Guzman being bigger than Arthur. But the size difference aint much, not enough to shout about.

Just because Guzman is fighting someone in his prime who's a former European champion that automatically means its not an easy nights work for him? On paper that holds Arthur in good stead, but it's not set in stone that its not an easy nights work. Not unless you have a crystal ball.
If someone has the opinion Arthur will win, no problem. But to say because he's in his prime and a former European champion it aint an easy nights work for Guzman. Well, maybe you like to think so Dunky. But we shall need to wait and see. I'm basing my prediction on ability and versatility.

He may put on a ridiculous amount of weight, but sadly for Guzman it doesnt transmit into punching power. He may be one of the biggest, but hes NOT one of the strongest. He hasnt been a big puncher since his super bantam days. One glimpse at his record tells us that.
As for Arthur, he hurts guys at super-feather. Hes a natural super-feather, who has power at the weight. Guzman may have the weight advantge come fight time, but thats about it. & remember, bulking up too much takes away the one thing everyone goes crazy about when talking about Guzman, his SPEED.
But Im giving away too much here already, I just want to sit back relax & let everyone go Guzman crazy before I have my last laugh.

You say you are basing your prediction on ability & versatility, thats fair enough. I just dont see the ability & versatility in Guzman that others see, like you dont see how fighting a former european champion in his prime in his own backyard is a problem for Guzman.
Its a stalemate, none of us are going to convince the other that we are right.
Just remember to come into my Alex Arthur party thread after Alex has won Robbi.
There will be cheese, wine, & a pig called Huki to be feasted upon. Dont miss it!
