How will Corbert serve against fresh legs? Corbert looks over weight and in power condition so far; hope he proves me wrong now.
Darren will be kicking himself for not being in better shape. Even if he gets past Okoth I doubt he beats Dickinson who will be tons fresher after than one round KO.
To paraphrase Bobby De Niro in Goodfellas: "Did I just ****in' hear right? I couldn't beliieve what I just heard." Wayne in the next Prizefighter!!!
To be honest, Wayne could win the whole thing, and that's not necessarily good long-term. High punch output, three rounds a time, great chin, not the greatest opponents (I would presume) - he has to be confident. Unfortunately, if Wayne won it would mean him beating the same old drum of wanting fights with all the top lads again. I think 99% of us want him to call it a day (because we love him so much and don't want him hurt, not because of any ill-will). I don't feel so great knowing he could win it - never thought I'd say that.
Lads, May is looking like a superb month on Sky - Mosley/Mayweather, Williams/Cintron, Katsidis/Mitchell - wow! Couple that with the Limerick card and we'll have a great month all round!
This is from Dan Rafael's ESPN chat. The `he` is Richard Schaefer of Golden Boy who was sitting in on the chat and answering questions. Marc (10 feet to the left) What kind of undercard is bandies about for Diaz-Marquez II Dan Rafael (2:39 PM) One fighter he wants to bring back is Winky Wright against possibly Matthew Macklin (European champion). He also wants to put on prospect Frankie Gomez, who also fights tomorrow and also Saul Alvarez, pending the outcome Saturday. Another possibility is Robert Guerrero.
http://boxrec.com/show_display.php?show_id=600094 PrizeFighter link, Only Pickering and Wayne are comfirmed.... But unfortunatly it does say it is in the UK....... On Waynes facebuuk page he even said it is to be in Britan, Well best of luck to him anyway,
That'd be great stuff, a declining Wright is still a big name in America and beating him would Macklin right on the radar of all the other top Middleweights out there. Due to Winky's lack of size and punch I'd strongly favour Macklin aswell. Sad to hear about McCullough though, thought I'd never see him back as he wasn't willing to fight for small purses to build himself back up he just wanted big fights straight away. But prizefighter gives an opportunity to win a big purse against small time opposition and unfortunately is looking like a way of Wayne getting himself back into boxing, and as much as I love Wayne(he's a hero of mine) that isn't a good thing. I really was satisfied that all his intended comebacks would amount to nothing over money issues but this stupid competition has gone and ****ed that up.
