Scottish Boxing

[johnp]

is in its best shape for a long time IMO.

Alex Arthur - World Champ

Willie Limond - a contender

Kenny Anderson - potential to go far, same with

Ian Millarvie.

Plenty of good, young boxers coming thru like -

Jason Hastie, Gary Young and the best young fighter in Britain IMO

Paul Appleby.

What do you guys think?

[kerrminator]

Its looking good I have to agree. Dont forget Barry Morrison is gonna try and win back his lonsdale belt on Friday and return it to motherwell :)

Come on Barry, do the Bizness ;)

[Dunky McCafferty]

& dont forget Craig McEwan either, hes got star potential, & hes learning from the best over in the good 'ol US of A!

[johnp]

Forgot about Morrisons fight this week as well!!

a lot of the Braveheart guys have been out to LA to train as well

[maka]

jamie coyle, stevie mcguire are back to winning ways and newcomers like charlie king, paul burns are off to good starts.

headin to liverpool for friday fight night, heres hoping the night is full of good banter and good sportsmanship, in and out of the ring

good luck bizness :good

[nicofly]

what about mcintyre when he comes back from injury? Should still hold the lonsdale belt IMO

[kerrminator]

& dont forget Craig McEwan either, hes got star potential, & hes learning from the best over in the good 'ol US of A!

Good shout Dunky ma man I'd forgot him too :)

Like all those guys, really happy with the way Limond has got it together. Sick of hearing about Millarvie though to be honest, he went over to America about 2 years ago and still haven't seen him fight.

Anyone know what is happening with him?

[BigEars]

McEwan, Appleby and Kenny Anderson all look serious prospects .

I first say Anderson at the Commonwealth games and he looked a real puncher, so far his pro career has proven that theory right .
If he can stop Nathan King Scotland will really have something to think about .

I think Appleby is up there with the best in Europe as far as Featherweights go at the moment, the European scene at Featherweight isn't very strong at the moment so I actually wouldn't hesitate about putting Appleby in a European title after a British title defence or two . Although if Monshipour's comeback is serious things may change a litte, if he still has what he did two years ago Monshipour would be a nightmare opponent for the young Scot .

McEwan is coming along quietly under Goldenboy but looks very good .
He could very well be the best of the lot and will not doubt get the right opportunities and match making under his current bosses .
I'm surprised he doesn't get more attention here, especially as he wasn't exactly a bad amatuer either .

Considering the likes of Simpson, Arthur, Ricky Burns Limond, Morrison, McIntyre, Anderson(unless he's though of retiring) and Steven McGuire are around too aswell as guys loike Jamie Coyle, Lee McAllister(prick) and Martin Watson too with prospects such as Jason Hastie things seem very strong for the Scots at the moment .

100 per cent sagree with you.

anderson is fighting ayitely power now

mcewan is fighton sat mate .

[Beeston Brawler]

I think Appleby is an excellent prospect, but has glaring weaknesses that could do with being ironed out before a step up to European level - there is no rush with him anyway, he would be well served earning a Lonsdale belt outright against different kinds of opponents (boxers, brawlers, punchers etc).

He has fought a good standard of opposition thus far, certainly better than most British fighters do in their first 10/12 fights - after a couple of British title defences I would have him fighting the odd Mexican journeyman across the pond to get experience. One reason why so many of our fighters fall short at the elite level is because they lack the experience of boxing on major cards - Ricky Hatton was on a fair few decent bills as a young kid, which I am sure helped him when he was headlining.

What do you guys think?

Do you want to know what I really think?

Scottish boxing is never going to be great.

Its a country that just dosent produce world class fighters like England and occassionaly Wales does.

Ok - Jim Watt and Ken Buchanan were ok - if overrated - I mean Duran stopped Buchanen and Duran lost to Land and Lang was knocked the fuck out twice by Colin Jones.

Them list of guys you mentioned there are mediorce.

Alex Arthur is at the top of that list - but he is not a world class fighter he is a paper champion.

I can't comment on the other guys so much as I have so little intrest in Scotland because they have failed to produce a fighter that gets my intrests.

Willie Limond is ok - British level fighter - thats about it

[robpalmer135]

i can see Appleby being a huge name. European versain of Gatti.

what boxers has fuckin flint island produced like??????????? :twisted:

Seeing as no-one lives on FLINT ISLAND except animals - it would be impossible for a boxer to come from there.

I'm from Swansea you daft cunt.

Swansea has produced:

Colin Jones - in my avatar picture.

and

Floyd Havard

both are products of a little gym behind my house where Colin started boxing when he was 8/9 years old.



and currently from another part of swansea a few miles away from me Crusierweight Enzo Maccarenelli who recently lost to David Haye by a lucky punch!

Kenny anderson hasa good amatuer record.He has a ko record in the start of his career and should be getting himself in the mix up for the british title.He is a good puncher and has a good boxing brain to match,somehting you dont see very much.

appleby won the title at the age of 20,which is an achievemtn on its.in his fights to date he has fought a lot fighters who are actually lightweight,granted there maybe not world class opponents howevewr he does show he has power and a good engine.he does need a lot of work (hel ebven admit htat himself) but to say he is mediocore is a tad harsh.

Craig mcewan is training in la with freddie roach ,who can prob get the best out of most and he has came up against a lot of mexicans and has shown to be quite comfterable,again he had a good amatuer career and will come good i think .have you seen any of his fights ?

as for wullie limond he was doingwell against khan ,he actually had him down for 13 seconds !however the ref helped him out there.i expect him to win the /or fight for the full ibo title soon mate

as for alex arthur being a paper champ .remeber he is holdingthe WBO ;the same belt that both joe calzagh (who is one of my favs btw:good ) and enzo macranelli both held.where they paper champs when they held them.

each fighter has to be judged on merit not on the belt

the fighter makes the belt not the other way round

Calzaghe was always the best supermiddleweight in the world even during that padded out WBO reign of 20 defences

Maccarenlli was gifted the vacant WBO title and in light of his fight with Haye you would have to say he was only a paper champion

Arthur too was gifted the WBO title and judging by his performances I would have to say he too is a paper champion

there is far more paper champions about today then geniune top world class champions

That is complete bullshit. Not only are you using a nonsense A beats B theory, but you quite clearly havn't seen Buchanan fight, as he was a masterful boxer. It's hard to fail to be impressed, unless you have impaired vision. Makes most top 10 British fighters lists.

Back on track, most of these guys are good prospects, but still only prospects even at British level. We'll see how they go, but its exciting times for Scotsmen.

BETTER THAN THE WEATHER IN SCOTLAND.......YOU DAFT CUNT:yep

What I dont understand about you Flint is why you are always attacking the scots here. I mean in all seriousness, we are both small Celtic nations, we share a lot in common with each other.

Why you always feel the need to bring down the scots I will never know, but I hear Swansea folk arent as patriotic as their Cardiff counterparts. Maybe that explains your "us Swansea boys & the english are better than you scots" style posts, but of course I cant be sure.

However, who am I to judge a man or a poster?

O I seen footage of Ken Buchanen oright.

Writhing on the floor in agony after Duran put the pain on him.

Eddie Thomas use to train Ken Buchanen.

Then he went on to train a Welshman - Colin Jones - The Welsh Dragon from Swansea Wales.

Jones knocked out Kirkland Lang twice.

Lang then went on to outbox Duran.

Lucky Ken Buchanen never shared the ring with Colin Jones or his all time ranking in British fighters would have dropped a good few places because he would have been laid out on the floor.

Remeber Eddie THomas trained both fighters - Colin was the hardest hitter and the nastier fighter - Ken Buchanen would have been knocked out in some style.

Good attempt but you gave away you are a troll with the writhing on the floor in agony after Duran put the pain on him .

it has no appeal

Its too far up north where it is cold and windy and any further you are on the way to Iceland

We only have the most beautiful city in Britain up here, world reknowned tis...

Can't say the same about Wales mind you.

Anyway, yes it is a great time for Scottish boxing. I believe it's only a matter of time before we produce another truly World class fighter...

Personally, I'm a bit peeved at the underwhelming amount of attention that McEwan is getting...ffs he's only with golden boy under the wing of Freddie Roach!

For me though, in the here and now, the best bout involving a Scot in regards to this forum would be AAA vs Kevin Mitchell...would be an excellent bout and would certainly have the debate raging and the banter going...

Hope it happens big time.

Make it 4..

Didnt know you before this thread but i sure dislike you now

your a bitter little man with little or no knowledge.

Didnt know you before this post

Dont want to know you either

I got more boxing knowledge than you 190 posts

I been around the game my whole life

And I may seem bitter to you - only to the Scots because they took upon themselves to insult me before this thread ever existed

[Fat Joe]

Its too far up north where it is cold and windy and any further you are on the way to Iceland

I think you've just pissed TFFP off. Hang on, I'm sure he has already branded you a retard earlier in this thread.

well he is negative to me - cos I have a conflict with the scots on this British Forum

Blame it on Dunky and Smith - they made a bad impression of what Scottish people are like on this site -

My apologies to other Scotsmen you are all probaly oright

And Gary Jacobs was a good guy too.

Dunky if you never called me a Scum Bag everything would be ok

But as for Smith I just think its best to accept that some people just dont get on with each other

[dukestreet]

Im Scottish and i have nothing against you or the welsh, i just don't like the fact that you belittled scottish fighters in this thread.

aah dont try & deflect the blame onto me fella, you started the beef when you came in last week into a thread & slaughtered scottish boxing, saying that the welsh & english shat all over scotlands boxers. Then you used Joe Calzaghe as a prime example of how welsh boxing was better than scottish boxing, so I came back & told you that Joe wasnt in fact welsh, he was english!

A beautiful comeback even if I do say so myself...

Anyway. The jibe worked a treat, & you have been on a scots hating rampage ever since! So I thought i would rile you up on the lounge as you had lost it mentally by then, hence my jibe at you for starting a different BB thread, & once again, I hit the bullseye & you lost it completely:lol:

When you start a fight with the jocks on ESB you have to preapare for a war, cos we gonna get all braveheart on anyones ass who dares diss us or our fighters!

You learned the hard way Flint, dont fuck wit da ESB jocko crew if you know whats good for you:smoke

Dunky McCafferty. Im Braveheart to the graveyard:gun

[Dunky McCafferty]

why u bring the enlgish into everyone of ur arguments!? we`re not involved here. Infact anglo which has relied in this thread has backed scotland.

Read my above post SLF.

Twas him who used the englanders to ram his point home about how Welsh fighters piss all over scots fighters.

He say english first, me no guilty this time senor!!!

[Dunky McCafferty]

William Wallace is from Scotland - and that film showed what a savage barbaric lot they were -

hey hey hey, I just noticed this!!!

Your boy Glyndwr didnt exactly hold back when the english pissed him off once too often, did he?

aah dont get me started on Owain... I fuckin love that piece of welsh history. & thats not me trying to suck up or have a happy ending to our argument, its just fact. Glyndwr fascinates me.

[alba]

William Wallace is from Scotland - and that film showed what a savage barbaric lot they were -

how long ago did william wallace roam these lands?hundreds of years ago.And the fact is that film is so historicly inaccurate.

i mean come on mate you say you dont like all scotsman,then you try ans bring the english in on your side.thiis your problem not there.now i know loads of welsh,it comes from my trips to wales,going to rugby and going to watch calzaghe fight.

But your words really show your mentality.and your a disgrace to your welsh brothers,who i find are great ppl .

Smith started it insulting me and Colin Jones in a earlier thread.

So I came in the Brit forum with the intent of insulting Scottish fighters.

Who is Smith to insult Colin Jones who is one of Wales best fighters and fought the best pound for pound fighter of his day - and Smith is just some jumped up University Student who thinks he is some kind of hard man.

Colin Jones was a top pro boxer who could punch like a lunatic.

Of course I rate Ken Buchanen - I have always known he is ranked by most as one of Britains finest ever fighters.

Like I said Eddie Thomas trained both Ken Buchanen and then a bit later on Colin Jones - both were good fighters - but they would never have fought each other - Colin was a Welterweight = and Buchanen was a Lightweight.

Pound for Pound Buchanen is probaly a superior boxer to Colin Jones and ranked higher than him - but that don't mean you can just dismiss Colin Jones as nothing.

You don't like it when I spoke negatively of Scottish fighters - and I understand that.

But it's not all one way traffic - you got this Smith then laughing out loud about the name of Colin Jones as if he was some kind of joke.

Colin Jones fought in a era much tougher than today.

There were no paper titles in that era.

And cocky youngster Smith has no respect for fighters like Jones while the likes of Sugar Ray Lenoard said Colin Jones was a "very very very good fighter"

I know who's opinon I would respect more a all time great boxer over a cocky big headed youngster who is only a legend at his own dinner table

My laughter directed at Colin Jones was for you making out he was genuine world class, sorry pal but he wasn't, no fucking way.

Get a grip and stop bringing my name up constantly , it takes two to tango. Like we said, dont speak to me again, dont reply to my posts and i'll do the same for you.

Do you not think its strange that Ive only had a problem with two people on here, you and greengloves, and even then, greengloves is an ok guy. Says a lot, not that Im a ''cocky youngster''. I have a lot of friends on ehre or people im cool with, you are the only one I dislike. Why do you think that is?

It's obvious to me - its a clash of ego.

I seen a couple of your pictures in the picture thread - I got a impression of the type of guy you are.

If we met in a real life and you had no idea I was FLINT ISLAND we would still be at odds with each other because it's a clash of ego between two certain types of people who don't get on.

I know this because I have had ego clashs with similar types like you.

This is the last post I will write about you Smith - as we both agree on something at least - lets just leave each other alone and life here on ESB will be alot simpler.

[TFFP]

I'd rather be down here in Wales in civilisation than up so far north it is like a forgotten land to most people

there are many places that I have not been to around the world that one day I wish to visit - but Scotland is not one of them

it has no appeal

Roy Jones never liked the cold either - he refused to come to New York in the winter until the latest possible time - then he destroyed Merqui Sosa in two rounds - you calling him a girl too - the best pound for pound boxer of the last 20 odd years?

Jones was very much a world class fighter.He drew with McCory first time round, then pushed him to a close decision in the return. When he fought Curry, he got cut early and the fight was stopped, before Jones could get into the contest.Jones was only 26 when he retired due to constant back trouble. In todays era, he would be a world champion.I,m positive of that.:deal

Because someone that drew in a world title fight in an era when there was only two champions, must have been world class to achieve such a feat.So I,m questioning your analytic process.

I agree

Colin wan the European title in 2 brutal rounds smashing out the long reigning champion in his home ground in Copenhagen

Colin was also the youngest ever British boxer to go the Olympic Games in 1976

Colin was young British Boxer of the year in 1980

Colin and McCory fought two very close fights

And here is the key - Milton McCory leading up to the Colin Jones fight was the rising star of American boxing - he fought out the Kronk Gym - regualrly sparred with Thomas Hitman Hearns - and was undefeated - and knocking people out left right and centre - Colin got the better of him alot of times - he nearly stopped McCory in the second fight - but he held on and came back.

Also Colin fought a undefeated and prime pound for pound king Don Curry and was stopped on a cut.

Colin was never knocked out or counted out, or stopped - apart from a cut.

And of course he twice smashed out Kirkland Lang and then Lang went over to America and outclassed all time great Roberto Duran.

This reflects well on Colin.

In todays sport Colin would easily pick up a paper world title - his European title back then was worth far more than all these paper titles out there today.

Colin Jones would have knocked out Ricky Hatton up at welterweight too - there are lots who agree with me on this - and Hatton is considered world class.

Jones was not a fancy boxer or anything like that - but he had the grit and power to be a threat to any welterweight in the world including Sugar Ray Lenoard who opted to vacate his belt rather than fight Colin Jones. And acknowledged that Colin Jones was a threat because he was a excellent fighter

Oh christ, you are delusional, he had eye problems which prompted him to vacate

Colin Jones is nowhere near a great British fighter, unfortunately. He was simply good, not in the league of Buchanan who you try to discredit miserably

Trust me you don't want to get hit with one of them

Colin Jones is nowhere near a great British fighter, unfortunately. He was simply good, not in the league of Buchanan who you try to discredit miserably

I was only messing about with Buchanen - I acknowledged in another post that he deserves to be ranked higher than Colin Jones in all time great british fighters.

Lenoard vacated to leave Jones fight for the title - I'm not suggested he was ducking Jones but he did say he was a "very very very good fighter"

He vacated because his eye was half hanging out, hence he had quite an extended layoff period around that time before making his comebacks

It's a bit of a push to even infer he was in any way worried about Jones, when he goes on to fight Hagler, Hearns and Duran

The only fighter you could make a case for him ducking is Pryor, but I still don't buy it.

Thanks for the honest answer our man Flint, I respect that. As for Smith & Jones(hey isnt that comedy show?)well Smith is pal of mine here & Colin Jones? I must admit I know next to nothing about him. Not in a disrespectful way mind, I just tend to concentrate on scottish boxers of the past & present nowadays, & thats probably to the detriment of my overall love of the sport. I need to quell the nationalistic beast inside me a bit to be honest, cos I neglect too much elite level boxing nowadays, & topping up my overall knowledge of boxing.

Anyway Im waffling again! Yup, had a few sherrys watching the Baz Morrison fight, so Im extra chatty:patsch


Anyway, enough of my waffling already. You & Smith have your beef, its up to you two to sort it out. Maybe british ESB should elect an agony uncle to help sort out running feuds Jeremy Kyle style?(& we all know what poster reminds us of Jeremy Kyle folks;) )

However, Im glad to see you were only being a cunt about scottish fighters cos you were on a moral crusade, & as you played the pipes of peace Flint may I say that I dont honestly regard Calzaghe as an englander...
Joes pure welsh/italian. The man even said he would be supporting Italy over England a few years back, hes a celt. Theres no denying it:deal

Look. you caused such a stir here that the knives are well & truly out for you on brit ESB, but IMO you are only guilty of being a fiercely patriotic welshman

This thread has just went a bit crazy, & IMO it ends here. I bear no grudges towards you Flint, & thats that.

Just hope that Golden Boy are providing testing opposition - recent suggestions of carefully picked opposition refers. Nevertheless, after the Barry M fight, good for Scotland. (Thought Barry tried hard and should be proud of his efforts!)

Could be worse, Gorgeous George (Galloway) also headed a bid and there was some American zillionaire - richest man in Possil - also expressing interest. Whoever next... Don "I've always loved The Jags" King? Following the jags is like watching boxing: good days and bad ones. As the guy in The Office famously said: "Somedays you're the pigeon, others the statue". My heid's normally covered in shit! :!:

Has anyone mentioned Gary McArthur?

Have to confess I've never seen him fight but there was a fair bit of noise being made about him, gone a bit quiet though.

Anyone?

[Bluenose]

Spoke with Kevin McIntyre last night and he was saying he finds out this Wednesday whether or not he is getting a shot at the belt again.

Bit of a farce the way he was treated to be honest.

That's Gary mcmillan your thinking off reilly, gary mcarthur is from clydebank i think his record is 11-0 , both will be lucky to reach British level imo.

Its terrible the way Mcintyre has been treated he should without a doubt be getting first shot.

[papke26]

My mothers scotish and i am always pleased to see a scotish fighter do well there is a lightheavy up in the highlands called sandy robb i spared the fella when i was boxing and im telling anyone out there he has the tools to be special. I believe he is currently inactive but seemed ambitious when i talked to him. Also he is a real humble blue collar type fella who has his feet on the ground the type of man that the scotish would pull for.

Gary Mcarthur has had problems with his hands recently.

[HairyHighlander]

Hullo, not much of a poster maself, happy just reading peoples thoughts etc. Regarding Sandy Robb, i wil certainly vouch for his talent, from sparring(even though i rarely saw him mixing it up, happy to just save it for the fight) to appearing on shows along side him. etc .The last i knew he had broken his leg some time ago, hospital told him it wasn't then a week later he went back complaining of more pain, they said it was. Not sure if these r the facts.

In the Highlands we have done quite well regarding
scottish finalists ,not as many in recent years.
One year we had 4 finalists,3 winners, not bad for a gym with no ring :good

[scotchpieirnbru]

Nice to see that Pointless argument is done.

Now, saw the boy Ryan Brawley fighting on the undercard of appleby v Simpson. looked a classy boxer. Anybody know anything else about him? Was scrapping with Mckeever.

[scotchpieirnbru]

Wullie Limond offered a shot at Sallita then? Thoughts?

Bump !!!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

[Dunky McCafferty]

Im glad this thread got brought back up to be honest!

I said here years ago & suffered much derision when I said Ricky Burns would be a world champion, & whaddya know? Hes getting closer:smoke

Craig McEwan, a scottish superstar before long, never mind world champion.

& once Kenny Anderson recovers from injury? Expect BIG things.

For a nation of our size, as usual we are punching well above our weight.

& dont forget Paul Appleby, he aint finished just cos he was the victim of a dodgy stoppge by a bottle merchant ref in Northern Ireland.

Well, I have said my piece. Piss off & read something else.



aaah just joking you oversensitive cunts!

lol what a fucking lunatic thread this was , Flint lol , you dont dispespect an entire nation or its boxers because you had/have an an arugument with a couple of the countrys residents , Scotland has a massive boxing history and punches well above its weight when you consider the size of its population , Oh and BTW anyone who dosen't consider Colin Jones as world class is a farking idiot .

Scotland has a population of over 5m, Puerto Rico has under 4m.

[JOSEY WALES]

Yep and Wales has a population of just 2.9 million P4P though PR kicks arse in spectacular fashion and is P4P # 1 agreed , 350 million yanks , god knows how many Mexicans just wait until china with their 1 billion population gets a whiff of the bread to be earned in pro Boxing , The futures bright the futures yellow ...lol :thumbsup

Paul Appleby - big things? European Gatti?

My prediction from all those years ago that Ricky Burns would be a world champion is probably my proudest moment on good 'ole brit ESB:smoke

Is the Apples-Gatti comparison really so outlandish though? Applebey is a damn exciting fighter to watch, & has been in his fair share of classic tear-ups already. When you watch Apples, you know the kid is going to lay it all on the line. He doesnt do boring.

No doubt he's exciting - I felt his fight with Walsh last year was the domestic FOTY - but yeah, I do think comparing him to Gatti is outlandish. It certainly was at the time it was posted, and it still is now.
