ITS FINALLY MADE- Fitzy v Spike http://www.irish-boxing.com/grudge-match-fitzgerald-v-osullivan-ready-civil-war/ Anyone see this: Harrison has an offer to fight Big Roggie http://www.irish-boxing.com/audley-harrison-considering-martin-rogan-offer/ Fitzgerald: There will be nothing Civil about this War http://www.irish-boxing.com/fitzgerald-will-nothing-civil-dublin-cork-war/
Love to see Turner v Joshua, think if Turner landed he could test that chin, Keeler v Moffett and this card would be quality of course if Macklin got a good world ranked opponent like Hassan NDam .
Would like to see it, but only one result for me and that's a Joshua KO. Having seen their first fight even in fairness Turner did OK.
Turner needs to lose some of the puppy fat if he is to be taken seriously, and a step down in division to cruiser should help him also:deal
Turner is a decent guy. He has ability no doubt. But he simply isn't hungry enough for the pro game and unless he finds that desire and discipline it will be small hall shows. Mind you, if he did find the desire and got away from Ireland he would make a fine cruiser. Right now I'd pick Joshua to stop him in less than 2 rounds based on their fitness levels alone. If turner trained like a pro he wouldn't be a heavy weight.
The whole incident that happened around christmas time with him and his friend may have given him hunger and passion to succeed. Any idea when the tickets will go on sale for upcoming show? Although I'll be looking to get my tickets off Luke or Fitzy
Joshua's camp would probably see Turner as high risk-low reward. Regardless of athleticism and desire, there is always the possibility of Turner catching him - and if he does then he'd hurt him!!
I see hes been sparring Fury this week, hopefully he kicks on, he has some serious power and he done alright in his 2 fights with Joshua and the Chinese lad who got silver in the Olympics.
