I don't know, and I'm probably in pretty good company. I suspect Messrs Valuev, Harrison, Bruno, Holmes......don't know either.

it may be an advantage, but it never guarantees you a win, if you dont have the heart you wont beat an egg, just look at BIG David Mills for example,

Why stop at boxing
For the record the hull fans have their own thread on this and they are almost unanimous that Radford is the hardest and best boxer ever to hit super league so it was vital they managed to secure him for another two years,
Standing up to the forum bully.
It must be working, he doesn't like me...i'm devastated

Mrs Barista wrote:That's not answering the question. What do "height advantage" and "weight advantage" mean, as they are commonly used boxing terms, are they not? Mason is currently training with a boxing coach it says in the Aussie press today. Maybe it's on.
hes training with a boxing coach yes, doesnt say hes boxing though, boxing is a very fit sport MrsB as you probably know, im sure the Hull players will do some boxing training at some stage, they probably go swimming to, but i cant see Rebecca Adlington panicking just yet,
all you are trying to do is play down Lee Radfords chances, so if he gets beat you can claim he wasnt meant to win as hes so much smaller/lighter, but yet if he wins then its an embarassment for Mason whose so much bigger,
sorry MrsB but your atempts at mind games are getting worse.

This is great. Aussie hardman, as he is repeatedly referred to in the press, or "bully boy" as Gekko likes to call him as in my sig, who's much bigger, younger and doing boxing training right now, would be the underdog against poor old Radford who you lot think is so poor you were chanting to Morgan not to sign him at your last home game. You're scared Radford the donkey might beat your most impressive ever signing who considered a pro boxing career, and quite rightly so, it would be a humiliation for him. Radders on the other hand is just trying to raise money for a mate (we all saw how emotional he was the the Fielden fight), even if he is a loon for suggesting the best way to do it is to get battered. The fact that Radford's probably not back until Easter following shoulder surgery won't help his cause either.

if the wind changes direction your face will stay like that......
just because you keep saying it doesnt make it true MrsB
im pretty sure Lee Radford will seriously fancy his chances against Big (Bigger) Willie, hes not going to go into this knowing he will take a beating is he? charity or not. and im not scared that anyone will get beat, as i posted on the Hull pages it should be a cracker, ill sit on the fence on this one. as for Radford the player, i didnt want to sign him your right, as for chanting to not sign him, your wrong, I never.

What are you on about? It's for one of his proposed testimonial events. If it does come off can see it been an instant sell out.

Where does it say that that in the Sun report? Still, Radford's testimonial, a worthy charity event, I'm sure you'll agree, given Rovers fans high opinion of him.
