    Not anything major but noticed on box rec that Kerry Hope is fighting Matt Korobov on the Cotto-Pacquaio undercard. Does anyone give him a chance of causing a huge upset? Saw a bit of him on Calzaghe clan seemed like a decent bloke.

    Not a hope in hell TBH. Its too early to start predicting great things from Korobov but at the very least he looks a good, solid all round fighter.

    **** no. If he goes 5 rounds its a moral victory.

    Good for Hope, he deserves a fight on a big card like this. Remember he was meant to fight at MSG on the Calzaghe-Jones undercard but had to pull out.

    However, Korobov has looked the shizzle and Kerry has been bought in as the 'opponent' here.

    They couldn't pick a less dangerous opponent if they tried. Kerry Hope has zero chance of outboxing a top class amateur and even less chance of scoring his second KO. It's a shocker...hope Kerry is getting paid well.

    Total mismatch IMO. Feed Keijo Sato to him.

    Korobov has blew hot and cold one fight looks outstanding the next just ok, if kerry gets him on a cold night he will give him a good fight. Korobov cant settle he has had 3 trainers already which are not good signs

    I don't believe so.

    He did beat the guy who eliminated Korobov from the Olympics though.
