    Vassell by devastating sickening KO in round 6. As soon as he figures Gavin out, realizes he wont outbox Gavin, and finds the range, BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM.

    Just rewatched the Heffron fight and, **** me, what an awful stoppage. A true British stoppage if I've ever seen one.

    Anyway, Vassell looks useful, can punch and can box quite nicely. He showed some good variety too. But Gavin poses real problems for someone who punched with his feet so far apart. Gavin's mobility and upper-body movement will see Vassell wasting a lot of energy and getting countered when he tries to unload.

    Denton will land his jab, but after four rounds I see Frankie getting the rhythm down and popping his own shots in to take an 8-4 or 9-3 type decision.

    Such a wasted life......a lost soul.....

    Maybe I should visit so I can cross the ghost over to the light?

    Or maybe I should leave your sorry ass!

    Because it is in fact me, the ghost, my soul on its astral journey.





















    BOO!

    Not like you to provide so little analysis. Why do you think Vassell will get the stoppage?

    Well what can we say Dean? You've been here a million times before. Welcome back home Dean! If that is you Dean?

    Dean is back, back again.

    Do you know what nemesis means Dean? A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an horrible ****... me. :good

    I'd pick Gavin, I think. I think his head movement, his defensive reflexes, his footwork might give him the edge to outbox Vassell.

    That said, Vassell carries all the power in the fight, is more experienced in tough fights and is possibly only just getting the recognition he deserves.

    Would be a high quality fight.
