Andrew Flintoff - Boxing - Why?

[Beebo]

Why would he think he's any good at it?
And why would anyone pay £10 to watch this on TV?

BUT, big respect for having the balls to get in that ring and give it a go. Having been to a few amature fights I know I havent got the balls to get in the ring.

Tell you what he's lost some timber getting fit for the fight.

Did anyone else hear Barry McGuigan talking about Flintoff on Radio 4 today and think he sounded just like Coach from Cheers? [/quote]

I enjoyed McG shutting the interviewer up this morning- 'twas funny.

He has, but isn't it a shame that he never looked after his fitness to such a degree when he was playing cricket.

 

[TVC]

I suspect this will be a boxing career measured in minutes.

Book, TV program, payday. Say no more.

Seen it advertised to death on telly but haven't worked up the least bit of curiosity about it.

I've done a wee bit over the years, though its confined now to annual Dibble v Trumpton charity tournament now. T'is how I earned my nickname after the best heavyweight the Trumpton boys could find a few years ago was 40lbs and 8 inches smaller than your hero.
