    This should be a decent fight. Both are pretty damn poor.

    Thanks Rob.

    Its a good little fight this. Interesting to see if Dave can establish a jab or whether Larry can continue to walk through to wing in his big hooks and bombs.

    Not sure whether the eliminator will lead to a swift shot because Chisora and Sexton do have other fights to clear up, the Fury V McDermott winner for Derek for starters.

    I wouldn't discount Ferguson that easily. He strikes me as a rugged bugger and if you can establish a jab you can cause Larry problems because he's quite open, marches foward and throws wide punches. He's a handful though, granted.

    Hmm, seems Maloney has stopped padding Ferguson's record and is now feeding him to his prospects.

    Possibly. He has had a lot of padding.
     
  10. Awesome. Didn't think these heavyweight match-ups would happen for ages but really pleased they are, there's so many good fights out there on the domestic heavyweight scene. Larry is great fun to watch, big fan, and this'll be a real tough, close fight. If Ferguson can weather the early storm he could outbox and frustrate Larry. Will be rooting for Big Larry O tho!

    Not that I don't think he can win like. Anyone who can get out of the first 3 rounds with Larry can beat him.

    Im not sure his jab and boxing ability are good enough to hold Larry off though, on the prospect level i think Towers and Dallas would be able to execute that game plan to beat Larry though! :bbb

    Thats the unknown. I like Dallas, stiff puncher and good basics. Wonder how he is under pressure though.

    Good move.

    Instead of pretending that every fighter and his wife is going to be world class and making the fights down the line..... we actually have two people at a cross roads facing each other :yikes :shock:

    Yeah good to see a bit of a risk for both fighters. Reckon Dallas beats Larry. Just hope big Pricey gets a decent fight soon
