Watched that fight as well, Appleby looks a real talent and just seemed too busy for Simpson to cope with. I really like the look of Paul Truscott as well, another young featherweight who won the commonwealth title on Sky a few weeks back.
Just been watching M'Baye v Ngoudjo on Eurosport and they bloody lost the connection just after the 12th round finished with both fighters celebrating and they never got it back so I haven't got a clue who won! Pretty annoying!

| Ngoudjo won unamimous points decision,he's now mandatory challenger to Paul Malignaggi's IBF title.Ive just read the report but didnt see it,he won after a thumb in the eye in the 3rd virtually closed it.

In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

Cheers, the Eurosport commentators seemed pretty convinced M'Baye had done enough to win the fight so I'm surprised it was a unanimous decision. I can't see Ngoudjo beating Malignaggi really, well so long as he cuts his hair before getting in the ring this time.
Lockett v Pavlik tonight, I can't see an upset happening but it should still be worth a watch anyway.

| I read in the paper this morning that there is talk about the possiblity of a Ricky Hatton v Oscar De La Hoya Superfight in September now that PBF has retired. No idea what weight that would be and it doesn't make alot of sense in boxing terms, but financially it makes alot of sense.

| Unsurprisingly Lockett got his backside handed to him by Kelly Pavlik, who I reckon is going to boss that division for years to come.

Especially when Joe Calzaghe retires. Be interesting to see if they fight each other or not.

Not going to happen. JC has too much to lose. Roy Jones is the safest option and thats whom I expect him to fight.

It's on the BBC Sports Ticker at the moment, saying it wont happen, but there's no story at present.

Seems more likely that Hatton v Pacquio will take place next year by the sounds of that and that probably makes more sense for Hatton than De La Hoya does. For a start, he'd be at his natural weight. That would be brutal aswell, both exciting to watch and love to throw punches.

| Hatton has all but gone and would be best advised to fight anyone with no chin and the punch power of a marshmellow.

| Hatton v De La Hoya will eventually happen, I can see it being rickys second to last fight.
How does Hatton v Pacquiao make sense at all??? Manny is a featherweight compared to Hattons welterweight. Hatton would destroy Pacquiao

| How does Hatton v De La Hoya make sense? Hatton will have to go to at least 147, possibly to 150lbs to fight Oscar. His sheer size would be too much for Hatton. Pacman is stepping up the ranks and is now a lightweight. Neither fights are perfect matches, but they are "Superfights" and that's what attracts the money men.

Pacquiao fights at super-feather (130lbs) and is big at the weight. Hatton has been most effective at light-welter (140lbs). I reckon Pac Man could handle a move up to 140lbs without losing too much effectiveness.
