Frankie Gavin-Leonard Bundu Set For August 1st

Gavin's career finally has some meaning. Phew. Now let's see if he's any good or not.

 

Exactly ! A gold medalist at the world champs and in 19 fights his best win is Denton Vassell ffs, seriously no one would have predicated it would have took 20 fights for him to get his first euro title shot it's a joke. Wish Frankie all the best he's a talented guy but sooner or later he will realise his career is being ruined.

 

Lucas "Big Daddy" Browne has been added to the undercard on August 1st.

 

My thoughts exactly. Despite his age,Bundu is by far his best opponent. One of the years best fights. Bundu has the skill to catch Frankie if he carries on exposing his chin,but I don't think hell beat him. Gavin on points in a great fight.

 

Agree, and Bundu must be 40 now, with home advantage to Gavin should beat him. If he cant get rid of him in 6 rounds he has no chance at world level. Nice wee step up fight, about time.

 

Good fight, Gavin to win. I think he is very much a boxer who boxes to the level of his opponent. He will win this and move on and up.

 

Heard that about his Olympic team mate

 

When you look at Bundu's high ranking with the organizations I would already consider him World level Moog.
Bundu is getting on, but he's very experienced and still undefeated. It's a massive step up fight for Gavin, but as you say he has vital home advantage because his promoter knows the importance of it. I think Gavin can get rid of him maybe late in the fight, but the sensible bet would be Gavin on points.

 

Very good fight and I think the home advantage should pip it in Gavin's favour. It is good to see Gavin resllly earning his shot the hard way unlike Brook, Rose and Bellew who imo were all a bit lucky.

 

franki to win easy

 

Ha! More like they've got a promoter that wants to and can actually make the fights happen.

 

Brook earned his shot twice over, he's just never took the opportunity. I agree Rose and Bellew never done anything to get a shot and if Gavin wins this he's still got another 2-3 fights before he earns it. Full credit for stepping up for Gavin but he really should of been fighting half decent boxers for the last couple of years and gradually worked his way up, instead of a string of bums then a huge jump up in class.
