Froch/Mack & DeMarco/Broner RbR!

I think somebody like Wale or Lyon would be a decent shout in a couple of fights for Yafai

 

My thoughts too. The hype is going overboard at this stage, despite the top amateur record he possesses.

 

What was the Wale/Hall result? Nothing on boxrec.

 

Yafai Vs Hall is fine. No problem stepping up lighter weight guys like this, no one reason if he's that good that he can't fight the 2-4 ranked British bantams now.

Also didn't realise Bellew was in with an Argue :yep Hope he turns out a proper Argie import and makes it interesting :hey

 

Hall won a wide one on points, was a good fight.

 

Yafai's situation is something which I think Joshua should take heed of. Kal had been fighting the top amateurs for a long time before he turned over and it tells, he's a class above all these journeyman and isn't even getting rounds from them. He is at Commonwealth/British level already in truth.

I think if Joshua stayed AM til Rio, he'd be similar if not better. His raw talent would be best nurtured against top amateurs for a few years IMO rather than turning pro and having a couple of years fighting nobodies. There's no need to rush.

(I realise that I've gone off on a tangent haha)

 

Cheers Ishy, hope y'all will forgive me for not jumping on the hype train just yet.

 

:good

Remember Wale signed with Hayemaker and they called him the "British Margarito"

 

This lad isn't anywhere near as slick as he thinks.

 

Remember that

 

What time is fellow ESB poster Bellew scheduled ?

 

Na. I don't he's nowhere near as good a prospect as SKY seem to.

 

Eddie said 9.10.

Cardle doesn't look too convincing.

 

9.10ish

 

yafai or cardle?
