    molitor would be a good match-up style for dunne i think...i dont think molitor being a southpaw would bother dunne too much either...

    i dont think bernard should go after a vasquez or caballero straight away.imo a good fight would be jhonny gonzalez or daniel ponce de leon.there both dangerous but beatable

    I'd pick Molitor over Dunne. Molitor isn't to be under-estimated, he'd be very competitive with Dunne.

    theres not many on pure boxing skill alone can hang with dunne...its the big hitters that concern me with dunne...i think he could edge molitor in a tight technical fight:good

    i agree he could but so could caballero or vasquez.if bernard boxed as well as saturday night i think he beats ponce de leon.also i met tyson fury at the o2.hea actually a really nice guy which surprised me cause he comes across as a complete langer in all his interviews

    Dunne being a champ at super bantam would nearly automatically give him a shot at the featherweight crown this is the route he should go.The super bantam division is probably the best division at the moment.Feather affords him the chance to win a second title and probably a chance at unifying.It also takes the question of Dunnes weight losses out of the equation and afford Mc Gurn and the conditioning team room to improve his physique even more.

    A lot of Dunne's early fights were fought at featherweight and wasn't the Veronin fight at featherweight too?
    This may be the way to go.
