Men’s Boxing From Edinburgh to Hollywood | Morning Star #Ya’llmustaforgot 🥊🏴 morningstaronline.co.uk/arti…
Unbelievable day at @BarclaysHampden huge thanks to the staff, the police for the escort 😉 & to watch it with ma auld mate @gordonsmart @ArthurMachlan and Jimmy Smart. And well done the Hibees! @HibernianFC 🇳🇬💚🙏🏽🏴
No wonder Scotland is grey! Don’t come to Scotland to live lovely foreign people, the natives are mean & unwelcoming. They cook people with their haggis, it’s terribly cold & wet, and the men wear skirts with blue faces with huge knifes in their socks. The women are meaner. 🤣🤣
Will definitely have an impact on the fighter he once was. Can be lots of other factors as well champ ah guess. Age, hunger, sometimes older fighters get smarter & realise they can win easier!
Was fined by the board for not declaring the antibiotics and signing out the hospital. The weight cut affected me more than anything as my punch resistance was compromised obvs.
A bad illness on fight week Gary played the biggest part along with the 7 & a half pund weight cut hours before the weighin. I was dead on my feet before I got in the ring. A top trainer would not have let me fight in the 1st place!!!!
No you can’t champ, just sad no one was there to protect me from myself. I’d have fought King Kong and his brother on the same night back then stupidly. You’d have to kill me to keep me there & Gomez nearly did! NEVER fight ill young warriors.
Harder than losing any fight… it takes strong men to press on enjoy and life after you hang them up in an honourable and good way. It’s not called being a ‘fighter’ for nothing.
Bullies the worse people on earth… and “the belly doesn’t matter if the fat one dances well” 😉🥊
BULLY PICKED THE WRONG GUY… THAT BODY WAS A TRAP! 😭💀🥊
Bro thought he found an easy target, but KARMA HAD OTHER PLANS. 😳💥
Never judge a fighter by their appearance. The one you underestimate might be the one who humbles you in front of EVERYONE! 🥶👀
BRO LEARNED THE HARDEST LESSON THE MOMENT HE GOT TOO CONFIDENT. 💀🔥

Scotland is a small corner of a small island, and the native Scots are a true global minority 🏴👇🏻
Absolute land area:
👉🏻 Scotland: 77,900 km²
👉🏻 Africa: 30.37 million km²
👉🏻 China: 9.33 million km²
👉🏻 India + Pakistan: 3.74 million km²
Africa is ~390× larger than Scotland,
China is ~120× larger, and
India + Pakistan is ~48× larger.
Absolute native population:
👉🏻 Scotland: ~4.5–5.0 million
👉🏻 India + Pakistan: ~1.74 billion
👉🏻 Africa: ~1.59 billion
👉🏻 China: ~1.41 billion
India + Pakistan has ~350× more natives than Scotland, Africa has ~320× more natives, and China has ~280× more.
If we don’t protect Scotland’s land and native people now, we will be the last generation to know what it means to be Scottish 💔
It is sad Matthew. We now have misfits clowns disrespecting the greatest sport ever as households names in boxing not the super talented young fighters that have lived the life from their youths.
Some things you can’t do as a fully grown man no matter how great your coach is or how hard you work. You have to have learnt them as a kid from a teacher that knows the intricacies and skills. Sometimes being man is to late. #life
Well as you know yourself champ you lose a good bit weight I camp also. Due to my infection I went into fight week around a stone/14lbs over looking at my old diaries. I don’t think I urinated until the evening of the fights drug test I remember well… very yellow!
Great news my man. Hopefully see you in Manchester or Belfast. Always makes my day seeing you! 🫱🏼🫲🏾🥊
Dead on my feet ill before the bell rang, 7 & a half lbs to lose 4 hours before the weighin & still fought like this. F**k me I wasn’t just good but the reason we wear kilts is because trousers can’t hold balls that big! 🏴🙏🏽🥊🤣
