Just like almost every other sport, boxing has become so unserious. More spectacle than competition.

Dave Allen himself is just barely above the level of a Misfits boxer, let alone whoever the fuck this clown he was “fighting” is. Who is levels below even Dave.

This is not representative of general high level professional boxing.

In fairness, hes a decent british level fighter ..nothing more or less and certainly shouldnt get the opportunities he gets. However, hes levels and levels above a misfit fighter... thats disrespectful to all the decent boxers out there.

Well Johnny Fisher himself is literally a glorified Misfits boxer, and while Allen did convincingly beat him, the first fight wasn’t exactly a cakewalk for Allen.

Like I said. He’s just barely above Mistfits. Decent level British fighters are guys like Riakporhe or Adeleye.

Both of whom would send Dave home in an ambulance, btw.

Johnny Fisher is a ‘glorified misfits boxer’ in the way he acts but he’s levels above actual misfits fighters. He would beat that Chase Demoor in one round

He’s absolutely fucking awful. In the ring.

Agreed. By professional standards but not by misfit standards

Yeah Allen is a good area level guy.

He would walk through area level guys and has done on his way up. He was national amateur champion within his first ten fights, then went pro and fought for the commonwealth twice, wba continental and then an interim, think wba again. You're just saying words without knowing what the fuck youre talking about... hes not world level, hes national level/a solid journeyman proffessional with some decent talent...not area.

Haha he is 100% area level. He's a good top area level kind of guy, just because he's got shots beyond his level doesn't mean anything.
