BoztheMadman Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers I'll bet you he stops him. Montiel is damaged goods and can't do no good at featherweight. War Selby! :boxing: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRingRules Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Lee Selby to defend against Fernando Montiel by Rob Day] --- Montiel vastly more experience and underrated power.

selij Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Is Stephen Smith a journeyman? Hmmm... yep.......... Montiel has the better resume for sure. Will be rooting for Lee but it will be a very tough one for him. PBC on ESPN(2) Wednesday Special. Devon Alexander vs Aaron Martinez on too. Although he should win, this is no easy payday for Devon either. If he thinks this is a confidence-boosting walkover to avenge the A-Mere-Con defeat he should think again. The improving Martinez had Guerrero on his arse and only lost to him to a SD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRingRules Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Devon Alexander . --- Don King propped stinker Devon as long as he could before letting sugar daddy Haymon have him.

gavpowell Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers yep.......... I don;t think many journeymen win British and Commonwealth titles or beat Medina, even if Medina is antique! I've been impressed by Selby when I've seen him, but still not sure how far he can go, so I'll look forward to this as a benchmark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamasadlittleboy Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Fucking joke fight! Montiel was last a good contender at Bantamweight some 4 and a bit years ago. He's now a 36 year old who's padded his record with "respectable looking" wins over poor opposition (Doliguez was garbage, Puente's only win of note was over "Pantera" Saguilan). Against Terrazas (4 years ago) he looked shot to shit. Well done Eddie on getting a former top fighter, just a shame that his prime was 3 divisions lower, and around the same time that Selby made his debut.

LondonRingRules Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Fight will take place in Phoenix, Arizona. Isn't that where Breaking Bad was located? --- Where former heavy contender David Rodriguez got his throat slit ear to ear by 4 thugs in an attack. How he lived is a miracle much less return to the ring, but he was never the same much to the glee of boxrec sissies. Could have been worse. Arizona a great place to get a clip emptied into you from an assault rifle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alisea Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Hmm barely more than staying busy to my mind, can't see Montiel posing a threat at this stage.

Makingweight Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers It is a fight that Selby has the opportunity to showcase his talents,I am certainly a fan of his and was pre Steven Smith he has a great skill set. If you are talking about the best technical fighters currently operating in the UK can't see many better than him,great talent imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched a 3 min highlight clip, read the reports and commentary and made my observation. Never stated who I had winning because I can't be bothered w/watching another unproven stinker. Already spend too much time on a derelict dying sport. Now let him in against prime contenders w/his feather fists and see how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

likeli3000 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers Lee selby looked poor and the reason is because he is an average boxer who is terrible on the inside and when he gets hit looks like a drunk!

Most baffling part of this thread is Rob's admission to watching such an abonimation above!! David Dickinson ffs!!! Who gives a fuck about him?? And why would you mention it on here? No shame!! :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippy Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Re: Lee Selby vs Fernando Montiel - Spoilers I thought Selby did well and deserved the win. He beat what was in front of him but he'd have problems against any of the other beltholders in that division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
