    If Rigondeux is to be beat how is it done. I don't think you can fight him going backwards as he would just pick you off and you cant't fire first as he will counter you to death. I think you have to push in against him get him back towards the ropes try and get in close spoil and fight ugly. Try and prevent his lateral movement were he can wined up hooks and body shots get your head stuck in his and try and stick in a few upper cuts and if he gets frustrated and starts complaining watch for any lack of concentration to stick in power shots and if you hurt him go hell for leather. Oh and stick a few laxitives in his water bottle.

    Just my two cents, but them again don't really have much of a clue what I'm talking about.

    I think your right Tony the body shot is the biggest danger and no matter how strong the will or how tough the fighter a debilitating body shot puts you down for the count. I've noticed a few boxers wearing their shorts right up to their armpits lately (Tyson Fury, Larry Olumbamiwo) do you think we should sugest this to Willie.

    I think your right. He should fight kinda like Rendall Munroe. He better keep those elbows tucked in, for fear of the Rigo body punches. Then in the later rounds go for the kill and launch the Big Bangs:

    There is pressure on both fighters to perform. Rigo because of his poor performance v Cordoba, Casey because as an Irishman he carries that tradition and knows the country needs a lift.

    Strange things happen in Ireland and when you meet the Devil you spit in his eye.

    We could have crystal swing or the rubberbandits do the the ring walk music and which would be crazier.

    Sadly Willie aint a hope in hell go down and put your house on a ko rigo evens easy money. I'm putting 50 euro on 1 round ko 16/1. I'm all for the fight to happen but hell if Katie can't touch the guy how can casey. Lets be honest Katie alot sharper than Willie in every way.
    McCloskey has a real chance if his chin holds up and i hope it does cause he's a class act in his own right.
    Seniors start next week should be electric down the stadium , Mcloughlin should get his revenge on jj joyce after getting robbed last year.
