    I'm just hoping Dunne can win so that he might actually fight Munroe

    I think there's more chance of him fighting Munroe if he loses.

    He'll hide behind the belt until he either loses it or Munroe becomes his mandatory.

    This is a much harder fight than Munroe, can't figure out who's ducking who or why the fight hasn't happened????

    I wouldnt say either is ducking the fight but its the best fight for UK and Irish fight fans for sure

    Cordoba by early stoppage. Probably 4th round. Backing Dunne all the way but his chin just isn't world class and in this current division, he'll be found out every time he steps up to this level.


    I think the whole Munroe saga boils down to which of them gets home advantage. Neither of their promoters seem willing to let their fighter travel for it.

    If Dunne wins an already great day for Irish sport could get greater.

    If Munroe could refine his punching a bit more he'd be World Class. I still say 60-40 in Rendall's favour so far, but depending on what happens tonight that could change either way.

    I don't know about the Sidorenko fights, but the fact that one judge had him winning in Thailand 118-111 should tell you that he was robbed out there........and no, the judge was not Doug Tucker.

    Its a case of why pay-off all three judges when you only need two, I suppose?!?

    Why on earth would you suspect he was robbed in Germany and Thailand?

    Interim WBA Super-Bantamweight title. By winning the IBF off Molitor, Caballero is the WBA 'Super' Champion.

    They are fighting for the 'regular' WBA World SBW Title.

    WBA "regular" title, as opposed to the the WBA title that "super" champion Caballero holds
