Klitschko's Become the Guardians of Boxing

20 February 2012

So, you still think the Klitschko brothers are boring? You still want to see them fall? After the best part of ten years dominating the world heavyweight boxing scene is it time for the Ukrainian sibling combo to make way? Not now. Not after what happened in Munich. Not after the sport of boxing was...

17 January 2012

Over the 25 years I have been writing about sport I have been lucky enough to have covered just about everything in world sport, from six Olympic Games to six rugby world cups, football world cups, Commonwealth Games, all kinds of world championships and even the odd world boxing title fight, but if...

Smokin' Joe’s Toughest Fight is Over

8 November 2011

I'm pretty happy being born when I was and covering just about every sporting event of any significance for the past 20 years, but if there's one small era of sport I missed by a decade or so then it was the golden era of heavyweight boxing during the 1970's. Oh how I wish I could have been present ...

Congratulations to Dr. Steelhammer

4 July 2011

Although we at Sportsvibe are avid supporters of all things British sport we are not too sorry to see Wladimir Klitschko win on Saturday night in Hamburg against David Haye.

Hey David, Beat Klitschko and Then We're Talking!

16 November 2010

Sorry to pour water on the fire but am I the only sports fan unexcited by what David Haye did to Audley Harrison on Saturday night? � Harrison, as we all feared, proved to be a complete joke in the ring, a man who produced one punch before being stopped in the third round by Haye. And Haye? Well, wh...

World Champion Vettel Was Never In Doubt!

15 November 2010

Eight years ago I was standing at the karting circuit in Kerpen, Germany, where Michael Schumacher honed all his early skills and instincts, talking to one of the men who had discovered Schumi. � "I think we have another Michael," he said, with a twinkle in his eye. "His name is Sebastian Vettel. He...

Farewell Mr Boxing

23 March 2010

The fact that Harry Carpenter, whose death at 84 was announced yesterday, was an accomplished TV presenter and reporter of tennis, golf, the Boat Race and many other sporting events is slightly lost to the British public for one very good reason: from the early 1960's until he retired in 1994, he wa...

Frank Bruno is a National Treasure!

18 January 2010

I lunched with Frank Bruno today at a Cancer Research UK "Sporting Turning the Tables" function at BAFTA in Piccadilly and I must say it was good to see Frank again after all his well-chronicled troubles. I haven't seen him for a while but spent many an hour with him in the twilight of his boxing ca...

Klitschko's Jaw Hits the Floor

4 June 2009

Writers often use the phrase "quite literally" when, of course, what they are about to describe is impossible to be literal, but in the case of Wladimir Klitschko on Thursday a "jaw-dropping" moment was almost, very nearly, and as close to damn it, as quite literally the case as it is possible to be...
