    Anyone got any info on Nespro???? Seen a bit On youtube and he looks decent.Maybe a bit light for super middle????
    I don't rate Buglioni so just wondering if anyone Fancy's the upset????
    Italians can be a handful and he does look good enough to give Frank a few problems IMO.
    Cheers guys

    Tricky fight for Bug but he showed a lot of maturity in his last fight so i expect him to box smart for the first few rounds and then take out Nespro by the 8th rd.

    I was a lot more impressed than I expected to be. He is making progress. Previously I didn't think much of him to be honest. Very big at the weight though, ...may have to move up?

    Aye, i was impressed again by Buglioni and he has definitely improved. If that fight happened a year ago Buglioni would have struggled with Nespro and it would have no doubt went the distance, but Frank took him out in style just like he did with his last opponent. Big puncher.

    Frank Buglioni has got some serious potential, he is improving with every fight, he is young, big and strong at the weight, has some good power and decent boxing skills. Although at times I think he can be a bit easy to hit, butso far he hasn't shown signs of a glass chin or lack of toughness. He is a good looking lad and sells plenty of tickets so will market very well. If he is managed right I think he could be challenging for a world strap in 2-3 years time.

    He's one of those fighters that you can clearly see works hard in the gym and genuinely wants to improve. He is looking better and better every fight especially considering he's beginning to move up in competition. Made massive improvements in his defense over the past year.

    He's being incredibly well match though. He's FW's biggest ticket seller so it's in FW's best interest to keep that '0' going.

    They wouldn't let him go anywhere near Callum Smith.

    'The Wise Guy' is improving constantly and selling lots of tickets.

    He has improved no doubt.

    Shifts tickets,marketable & comes across well when he talks but will continue to be matched very carefully.

    Anybody would have looked impressive following on directly after Skeete.

    Agreed.

    I didn't rate him much but he's shown a lot of improvement in his last two fights so i'm starting to become a believer in him and he also has 'star quality' and fan following in the same way dare i say it as Ricky Hatton did at the start of his career in Manchester.

    Once he learns to cut off the ring better then i think he'll develop into a very good boxer. He's already rated in the Top 15 of the WBO so it's a safe bet he'll be guided towards a World title shot by the end of 2015 and if he gets the shot i can imagine he would bring 10-15,000 to see it.

    How old are you? i'm guessing about 16 or 17?

    If he keeps winning then by the end of 2015 or early 2016 Buglioni is going to be a star, he's already a good ticket seller and his fanbase will continue to grow the bigger the fights he has.

    If he can attract 1000+ fans to a nothing fight like Nespro then it's not inconceivable that he could bring 10k two years from now for a big World title fight.

    He fights on BoxNation. His audience is extremely limited.

    Name a single star who has begun his career on BoxNation?
