I like Felix Cash. Got a nice style to watch. Tall for the weight too isn't he?

1st time Ive seen him box. Looks to have a decent chin and very very aggressive. 

They both earned whatever money they got paid. 

Cullen v Cash was a fight and a half.

Just need to ban zero-hours contracts now and the jobs a good 'un.

I thought the same but there was a good debate on Question time last night about zero contract hours.

It suits some people, some audience members spoke favourably, especially the flexibility element of them. 

Joker - Ive dodged the previous comments because I was going to see it today. 

Hats off to Mr Phoenix for his acting. It made for uncomfortable viewing, very dark. 

Just finished Temple on sky 1. Basically a surgeon, a loner and a thief get their lives intertwined in a sequence of events. 

Good watch.

Brassic on sky. Don’t normally bother with sky comedies but this was highly recommended. I’m halfway through episode two and I’m howling, it’s amazing. 

I thought it was excellent. Characters were brilliant even though the lead actor will always be Woody from 'made in England'. His hand tattoos from that serious are still visable. 

Michelle Keegan was also easy on the eye. 

I see they are filming series 2 at the moment.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Georgie Kinkldaze/10.

Meandering, meaningless, unnecessary, self-indulgent, bloated... yet sprinkled with some kind of ineffable magic dust which made it a wonderful thing to watch.

What did it all mean? Who knows, maybe that will only become apparent later on... like the French Revolution.

 

Went to see this last night. Its funny how people's opinions differ. 

Biggest load of rubbish Ive ever seen. 

I guess its full of nostalgia for Americans, but wow, what a waste of 3 hours for me that was. (apart from the scenes Margot Robbie appeared in) 

0/10 Bob Malcolm

Peaky Blinders made a slow start tonight, setting everything up for the rest of the series hopefully.

The Derby BMW dealer was terrible,I ended up walking out and buying it from Sytners Nottingham instead who were brilliant to be fair.

Funny you say that. I did the same, I walked out on Derby Mercedes and went to Leicester Mercedes instead.

The initial customer 'service' in Derby was terrible. 

Card from Falls park in Belfast tonight, BT sport. Conlon the main event. 

Lots of Tricolors in the crowd, and plenty of 'songs' being sung. Hope it passes off peacefully as the night goes on. 

Mcombe looks a prospect. 

Looks like Whyte failed a drugs test prior to his bout.

If true, Eddie Hearn's statement about him being cleared to fight raises a few questions about his stewardship. 

Health related, he let 2 boxers fight in the knowledge one was doping, and who knows what damage that would cause to either boxer. 

He was quick to slag off Millar when he failed numerous tests prior to his potential bout with Joshua. 

He had a chance to take a real stance against doping and pull out Whyte, but he obviously put £ before anything else. Poor show, he's going have to do some serious explaining on this one.

Nope, very wrong. Bit of a tame effort at boxing after claiming he's way ahead of Dubois in skills. He wasn't slick. He got blasted away. 

I find Dubois and Joyce a bit... I dunno. I just don't think they're THAT good. They're both brawlers. I expect to see them in a nightclub car park. Hard bar stewards for sure but... I think any fighter with quick feet and some smarts that comes to win will trouble them. Luckily they can avoid that and kind of con there way up the ladder. But they're a poor Dillian Whyte. In my opinion anyway. 

Dubois does have time tbf. Joyce is going to bite off more than he can chew next year 

My thoughts on last weeks cards. 

Fury zzzzzzz

Khan was a mismatch. 

Didnt like the whole Jeddah promotion at all. Seemed a bit like forced entertainment. Sheikhs sat at the side of the ring in big seats by themselves either not watching the fights or recording them on their phone. One of them walked Khan into the ring and was more interested in making sure the crowd saw him. 

Its just seemed all fur coat and no knickers. 

Joyce works hard and can take a punch, but he's so slow. 

I was surprised by Dubois. For a young lad, he took a few puches and did a very good job on Gorman. From a marketing point of view he's not the sharpest is he? His interview was very robotic, and he could of acknowledged Gorman. 

I thought Tyson Fury interviews ringside on Saturday were brilliant. He looks so much at peace with the world at the moment.

The killers at Glastonbury.

Seen a couple of Derby flags on poles too.

Was just about to mention Glastonbury. Although not my usual genre, Stomzy was excellent last night, and the Killers are one of the few bands Id pay £ to see. 

Favourite is clockwork tangerine. On tap up the road, not so much down here. Stumbled accross it in Oxford last week randomly. 

Tried Brewdog local rivals last month, Fierce beer, and they were an 'acquired' taste. Their cask 'smoked' lager tasted like someone had left a regal king size butt  in the glass.....

My knee is in a pub in Staffs, quite near the Derbyshire border.

 

 Always fancied a pint in there on the few occasions driving to the Cement plant. Unfortunately its about 8am in the morning......

Going for the Brewdog triple at the moment. 

Punk, Elvis and Dead Pony. 

Anyone listen to Colin Hart on Talksport Thursday night? 

He had Wilder as his current no1 purely due to his punching power irrespective of a dodgy technique. 

He said Joshua in 6 tonight. 

He then spoke about boxers with wasted talent and said Kirkland Laing was the best boxer he had seen.  Unfortunately, after beating Duran he took himself to Jamaica and smoked the local fags for a year.....

I also came across Naz v Kevin Kelly on a sky rerun this week. I forgot how crazy that fight was. What an entertainer he was back then.

I'm taking my eldest lad to the upstairs bar in Edwards Inverurie today, family friendly, big screen, to watch Aberdeen knock out @David Celtic out of the Scottish Cup 1-0 Goal Scorer Max Lowe.

Max Lowe will be watched at Hampden celebrating in front of his family and friends.

Anyone coming along? @2tups @Ramadonna @Ramadonna9 @Rampian @Elgin_Ram @CWC1983 @campavanram 

Live on Premier Sports.

 

I was chatting to an acquaintance tonight that bumped into you in Edwards last Sunday.  I hear you are trying to sign up as much of the locals as possible to the Derby cause. 

Good effort. ?

I was at the game. Screwed as soon it went to 10 v 11, and to be fair we never laid a glove on them. First sending off seemed harsh,  but cant argue with the 2nd. Major surgery required in the summer but hopefully we get some Ryan Fraser money if he moves on. 

On the plus side, Ive had a decent pub crawl in Glasgow followed by a lovely curry in Chakoo Bombay cafe.

Thought I'd try and revive the thread for the upcoming DeGale v Eubank fight.

It should be a great fight. One has been on top but is on the way down and one has taken a couple of needed humblings but is still a raw talent. They should be kind of meeting in the middle. 

Seen people moaning that it's not PPV worthy but I'd disagree. It's not elite level but one of these guys is about to rule himself out of any big fights from anything between 2 years and ever.  It will finish DeGale and hammer Jnr back down to below world level.

DeGale is fecked. His nose ruined, his teeth rebuilt, his eyes are sunk, he slurs his words. But if he's even half the warrior and champion he was a few years ago then he wins this by 2 or 3 rounds imo. 

Degale was on radio a few weeks ago and fairly talked up his chances. 

Basically said he feels the in best shape in years and he's boxed at a much higher level than Eubank.

Enjoy yourself @CWC1983. Used to be a nice Belgium pub in Leicester, I forget the name.

I'm currently enjoying a bottle of 6 Degrees Peloton and dreaming about the Rams giving Aberdeen a proper walloping in 2 years time at Pittodrie in Europe!

Bobby Davidson on loan to Aberdeen and they win the league and all the rest!

@2tups probably out and about in the Aberdeenshire rain and win tonight having a Tia Maria and Lucozade instead of that Brew Dog Stuff.

Cafe Bruxelles in the city. They dont serve Tennents unfortunately so Im boycotting. 

Im in Rugby union countryside,  Leicester tigers rule the roost here. No one here has heard of James Maddison, let alone Bobby Davidson. 

I was back home a few weeks ago and treated the Mrs to an afternoon session in Ma' Camerons. Sublime.

Happy New Year to all rams a'where. Touched by the Doric or nae. And some time soon... road trip....

And to you and @Inverurie Ram. Hae a good een. 

Im stuck in deepest Leicestershire supping some Czech beer on tap trying to work out who the next DCFC to AFC loan will be. By christ, id love Chris Martin for 6 months. 

@AshfieldRamIll back up Lambchops comment about time and getting help from the proffesionals.

Accept that it will take as long as it takes, and people close to you will help see you through. The fog will rise. 

100% of people reading your post are right behind you. ?

Frampton has to beat Warrington doesn't he? 

Im not convinced Carl is over the hill quite yet but Warrington will come at him for 3 minutes x 12 rounds.
