I think he got it just right Matty, but you're right with another 20 or so overs we'd have probably won... At the start of play having 50 overs at them was widely seen as the wisest move. Great test, sets the rest of the tour up nicely.

Morrissey has a massive Latino following in US, apparently the gang members put all 'beefs' aside for Mozza. Let us know how it goes Mark.

Thought Bellew let himself down with his rant at Haye, calling him a 'bitch' was extremely poor really, if you're going to insult someone, insult them, bitch is just US gangsta nonsense and added little to proceedings. Thought he was reckless as the commentators said, but he got the job done and thats all that was required on the night. As for Fury, I can't help thinking the latest revelations about his mental health have been concocted to save him from a lengthy ban, its calculated and very deliberate in my opinion. I could be wrong, but thats just my thoughts on the whole debacle.

I went to see Richard Hawley in Sheffield last weekend, he was supported by John Grant an American chap with a real story behind his music. Very rarely have I been captivated, mesmerised and just stunned into silence by an artist at a gig, Bob Dylan a few years ago in Bpool was one such moment but aside from that never. Have a listen to John Grant, a chap that I've since learned has had so much turmoil in his life and was most recently diagnosed with HIV, but regardless he keeps on smiling through it all, and singing like I've hardly ever heard before. His lyrics are explicit at times and the topics he sings about are not for everyone but stunning vocals. By the way Richard Hawley was excellent as always.

Fury swanning round the Crolla VIP area in Manchester tonight like he owns the place apparently, now I know mental health is often a hidden illness I'm going out on a limb here, but this guys taking the p1ss out of the support, its fans and the authorities. A disgrace to the sport, strip him of the belts and lets get on with the serious business of boxing.

Not been on the site this week, has this anything to do with our illustrious owners? Do they benefit aside from the obvious? Can't pass up a chance to see an absolute legend, especially in my home town, unless those idiots are somehow jumping on the back Elton (excuse the pun) #venkysout

Read today that the Alvarez team have offered Golovkin an 8 figure sum to fight, so you never know. Mayweathers been quoted as saying fighting Golovkin would be 'Easy work' but I doubt Floyd wants to go down that road even at 147 if GGG comes down. But lets face it, Mayweather doesn't need to go out of his way to fight GGG, he's already a legend and has nothing to prove, even if he's a bit of an arse.

I used to go in during the 80's and early 90's, used to play a good mix of music, not just that heavy metal cr@p, but plenty of indie also.

Plenty of free view stuff on box nation today in the buildup to tonight's fight for anyone interested.

Watched Nigel Benn fight Gerald Mcclellan in the Cellar Bar, seen the Courteeners play a free gig, good venue. Lets hope its the start of a revival.

My god, the lad gave it everything, the way GG walked him down and just smashed away at the body and head was scary. Kel Brook like Khan before him deserve nothing but respect, great fight while it lasted, a throw back to the mid 90's when the British middleweights ruled boxing. Any chance of Froch coming back to fight GGG ?
-
When the fight was announced I could see only one winner and to be honest I still can only see one winner and thats Golovkin. The guy doesn't seem to have any weaknesses, you can try and out work him possibly, but Brook has no chance of doing that due to the weight difference in my opinion. I remember going to watch Hatton fight Mayweather in Vegas, I was telling anyone that would listen when the fight was announced that Mayweather will win easily. I get to Vegas, saw the fans and the HBO build up to the fight and bumped my cash on Hatton Think I'm getting caught up in the build up again, I now think Brook has a chance, when in reality he's a massive underdog for a reason, he's fighting possibly the best pound for pound fighter on the planet and GGG seems unbeatable at the moment. I wish him well, really hope he wins, but I can't see it sadly, but like Khan he deserves much respect for stepping up for the big fight when he could just see out the rest of his career fighting nobodies and taking home the money
