    Who's on board the SBW train?

    Who's on board the Frans Botha train?

    Is Sonny skilled enough to take on a well known HW who's been in with the best?

    Is Frans toast enough to allow SBW to beat him up?

    What's your say?

    Williams will knock him out, but not before receiving more punishment then all of his previous bouts combined..

    sonny will either knock out an unbelievably disinterested botha in one or two rounds or a moderately in shape botha survives the early onslaught and wins by ko when the overly enthusiastic sbw gasses down the home stretch.

    I reckon Khodder knows something we don't, noway he puts SBW in with someone who can beat him IMO

    I think that goes with out saying.
     
  10. Frans bloody shot now, still logic tells you Botha learnt a thing or two about the science over the years. He knows how to beat sonny who wants to play a big boxer

    Bothas too slow now to outbox him I think, depends if Sonny has improved his jab , but hes well schooled and proud enough to give a good shake so he will give SBW a few shaky moments if hes fired up, possibly even knock him out but I think SBW is actually pretty good defensively.
    If he turns up all hot air for a payday then SBW should outscore him reasonably convincingly, I think its unlikely Sonny will knock him out
    Hes just much slower these days

    SBW by TKO/KO - no way Nasser would risk his new money cow putting him in the ring with someone who could beat him.

    Logic would tell you Botha should know far too much to lose this.

    If he puts in a proper training camp and comes in shape, he should be able to stroll through 5-6 early rounds until which point SBW will almost certainly gas, then take him out with well placed shots.

    Logically this should not be a hard fight at all for even an old Botha.

    However, this is Australian boxing, and moreso, its a SBW figt, "logic" gets tossed out the window for such occasions

    SBW by stoppage inside 3 rounds

    I'm not into rugby meatheads bashing up old career pro's thanks.
