Thread: Super Boxer

Hey guys has anyone caught Super Boxer Thursday nights on HD1 ???

Its really good to see Aussie Boxing on Free to air TV !!



If you have not seen it tune in this week, Hoppa is taking on Bob Morovic for the main event.

Plus there is MMA cage fighting after super boxer this Thursday !!!!

Best thing to hit free TV since the Simpsons came onto our screens




Lets get ready to RUMBLE !!!!!!!

Its good to see boxing on free to air, the hoppa fight certainly is a decent one, but MMA sounds even better

Yeh I saw the first week and was really excited. And it was the Billy Dib fight (debacle actually) - turned me off it to be honest. Haven't tuned back in.

The commentating is shocking but there have been some really good fights, Billy Dib is a joke, and has embarrased Australian Boxing with his antics(not just this one fight), nearly as bad as the Elomar's (who started a massive brawl up at the central coast). Im pretty sure later in the series there are some even more talented boxers but the names elude me.

Ha ha ha yea JME the commentating is pretty funny and that Billy Dib fight was a joke !!!!! What a tool to give him a left hook when he was down on one knee

Cmjk you missed last week?? It was way better than the week B4 !! Some real good fights in the mix
Gees I recon I could take most of those guys lol
Kinda not to well put together but that's how I like it, you don't want all the Yanky Hipe just some good aussie boxing

Jme not sure who is fighting MMA after but that's always good to see.
How about that dude boxing with a massive back ...... Juiced up for sure !!! Looked lke a fucken hunch back lol

GO THE AUSSIE BOXING !!!!!




Anyone know any good MMA gyms in sydney ? That would be one hell of a conditioning workout!

That's it I'm going PRO !!!!!!

Everyone had better be watching ...... Go hoppa ......

Are you serious?! Hoppa's a disgrace! If thats the best aussie has in heavyweight, jesus we got along way to go.

Zero defence, no footwork, he looks like he's falling over his own feet! And laaazy. Does he even train?

What a joke...

The girls fight was by far the best fight of the night.

Very fit, very good technical boxing from the winner! Made everyone on that card look like bums, thats saying something!

I enjoyed the first fight, and the womens fight the most. There were some famous faces in the corners for some of the fights like Paul Briggs ( Pleassssse channel 10 make him a commentator, at the moment i would rather keep it on mute). Also in the girls fight Parr's husband was the cornerman Australias greatest Muay Thai fighter. In the end it was a pretty shit fightcard, and i now remember why i never watch Heavyweights.

that was possibly the worst fight ive seen in years, I cant believe the mediocre level of australian heavy weights if hoppa is our best, it didnt even look like he prepared for the fight, he's gone fat since his american fight.
Mirovic should retire the guy just embarrased himself out there, buy the 5th round he was puffed.

Even the ref said to them "cmon guys this is ridiculous" cos they both kept falling on eachother.

Billed on Fox Sports News this morning as "The Battle of the Bulge"... LOL

Disgraceful.

Yeh after giving Superboxer a miss after the Billy Dib thing - to then tune in last night to see two heavyweights cuddle for 10 rounds.......my opinion of superboxer hasn't changed!

The Jed Omahoney (?name) fight was super, the ladies fight was great, Ben Edwards was very exciting - but he fought a guy who took the fight on short notice and it was ended in the 1st.

So there are encouraging signs for Australian Boxing - but Superboxer needs to stop with the gimmick main events to gain some credit IMO.

That was a standing 8 count, not a stoppage... No idea what the ref was smokin calling that off!

Yea the Hoppa fight was shit house!!!!!!!!! more like a love fest than anything big bob was so tired........... all he wanted was a hug :)

Those chicks went hard though, nice fight.

The Irish dude has got some fight about him but his hands were down most of the time and if he fights someone decent he will get his head knocked offff !!! but he did have quiet good hand speed.

Ok Ok everyone just stop watching it,,,,,, ill keep watching and talking to myself ........

C_T how much are you weighing in at ?????? perhaps you should turn pro and fill the void

I weight in at 76kg's.

I watched it with my flatmate, he's an amateur boxer with 1-0-0 record. He was absolutely disgusted.

ATM he's training hard, trying to get down to 71-72kg. He's like a little Tyson.

Personally, i wouldn't do boxing, i'd do MMA. But atm i work fulltime night shift, 8pm - 8am, 4x a week. I can't make any classes and wouldn't fight unless i was very good and confident i'd be able to hold my own.

Can't wait to do 9-5pm day job. Then i can gym and train mma.

On another note... Hoppa doesn't have a job. He's a full time boxer. Thats why its such a disgrace that someone who has all the time in the world, can't even control their weight, let alone energy for more than 2 rounds. Both fighters were gassed in the first round after 2 minutes... Tall guy should have used his 25cm reach and boxed from outside, but its his own fault he didn't even attempt to box, he clinched just as much as hoppa.

Both fighters didn't listen to their corner either...
