I was talking to Pajo earlier and he didnt even know of the change of opponent until he stepped onto the scales... Its Brian Peters people that done all the match making, which is a terrible shame, the smaller promoters make much better fights especially ones the public people paying money want to see. I think he picked shite opposition for all the undercard so nobody takes the lime light off his precious money cow...
Lads it looks like Dunne will have a good reach advantage. Check out the 4th picture here http://www.rte.ie/sport/boxing/2009/0925/dunneb.html although Poonsawat looks ot have more muscle!
Well he is certainly clocking up the air miles, Manchester yesterday at macklins weigh-in, today at Dunnes weigh-in and word has it he will be at macklins fight tonight too and back for his promotion tomorrow. Busy Busy man, Think with all his travelling to different boxing events he would of picked up a thing or two about how to make a big impression in the world of boxing...
-------------------------------------- yes except this time Dunne will avoid being tempted into a brawl and will aim to keeo it on the outside
When Poonsawat landed here, I saw the pictures and he looked big, but on the scales he has a bigger frame and looks very strong. This is going to be a tough night for Dunne.
Hopefully, ive a score on a treble....Macklin to win on points, Dunne to get Ko`d and sweeney to beat power, 66/1 not bad odds, For Irish boxing id like to see Dunne win and hold onto his title for a while but i honestly cant see it happening
There is the potential for Dunne to be badly KO'ed. If Poonsawat does catch up with him and KO's him I hope he earns it and Dunne doesn't just give it away by doing something sloppy. However, on the other hand, as everyone has seen Poonsawat is wide open to the left hook on the way in. If Dunne can really time him and let it go he may just be able to send this lad to the deck. Does anyone know if Poonsawat has hit the canvas in his career?
Lads Poonsawats power is overrated its simple as that hes completely one dimensional dunne shouldnt have a problem outboxing him it really is that simple Im hardly a Dunne fan boy (if anything im a duddy nut hugger) but i know what bernard can do and ive seen the thai 4 times his ko% is high because he fights bums to keep active in thailand
