    Both good skilled fighters but to pull their styles off against the elite isn't easy. They'll need to prove it against higher level of opposition. Pulling it off against each other would be good.

    McCloskey has fought decent opposition , in cesar bazan ,manuel garnica , tonthco tonchev , nigel wright and colin lyons and he has outclassed every one bar the nigel wright fight wer he got a bad lump on his head and got dragged into a brawl . when he sticks to his gameplan he is worldclass and i think he would give any fighter at 140 bar manny a good fight . i have only seen olusegan twice and i belive McCloskey would beat him easily

    lets chat some **** about this fight and olesegun in general to get that mentalist who claims to manage him on here to go nuts


    he is apparently being avoided you know by ricky hatton and floyd mayweather and witter and cotto and manny and..............

    Olusegun is not that good. He's a wild brawler that can not throw a straight punch to save his life. His power is not special. He's unorthodox, southpaw and has a bit of speed, I think thats what has been doing for modest opposition. At the top level it won't cut it, if they ever stop talking and deliver.

    McCloskey for me, We saw the trouble Olusegan had with a southpaw in Wright i think a effective counter puncher like McCloskey will expose the wide swings and pick up a late stoppage or a wide UD.

    McCloskey. Possible stoppage, though Ajose is durable is nothing else.

    He has shown decent fundementals in the past, but seems unable to get any snap on his straights. He wings away, McCloskey would survive and win via a WIDE PTS decision.

    IMO

    Mccloskey UD. I don't think this fight will be made and not due to Mccloskey's camp.

    His next fight will probably be for the european title but against who now witter is out.


    top 4 contenders outside of witter and mccloskey are
    M'baye, Lauri, Lynes and Barnes.

    M'baye is ranked highest so that should be the fight that made between him and mccloskey.

    Lauri hass got a fight scheduled so he's probably out.

    Don't see no point in fighting lynes again. Mccloskey totally outlcassed him last time out.

    So I think its down to Mccloskey versus M'baye/Barnes Next.

    Love to see Mccloskey v Olsegun but would be shocked if the fight gets made.
