This looks interesting to me and I think it could be a pretty decent support to Frampton/Parodi, it may not be top drawer but looks competitive. Notice Boxrec have it down for 10 but surely as its for an IBF trinket it should be 12. Both fight at a decent pace and throw plenty of shots, I can see this being quite entertaining. O'Kane is a big fav with the bookies, thought it was a bit closer than 1/6 to be honest.
Looks good to me too. Micky. O'Kane should have a bit too much for Hope ..Hope is very one-dimensional in my opinion - but u r right the odds do look a bit wide ......he shouldnt be a six to one underdog, its not GGG hes facing...
Been some money for Hope today, best price Hope is 7/2 and best price O'Kane is 1/4, I think O'Kane may bully him a bit but Hope will have his moments definately, looking forward to it
Solid fight. 1/6 did look too big so if anyone got more than 7/2 on Hope then they got a good deal. Don't think much of the other 2 'main' fights. Big comedown from the undercard in Feb. If you were English and thinking of heading over (which I was) then you would be disappointed in the overall card.
Great fight, both showed great heart, could watch these barn stormers all day. As a Scotsman I'd love to see McEwan in with the winner, sure to be another great punch up.
Agree its getting crazy now, there is no way for me you could score that a 118 fight, its always been hard to get a decision away from home no matter where you are but it just seems to have got worse over the years, there is no answer really because in theory you have 3 impartial judges in those fights, its just that there not, so not sure we will ever get where we would like. I think the right man won don't get me wrong but you would have to ask what would Hope have to have done on that 118 card to have won that fight, I think there is only one way and that would have been a knockout,
i think hope would have struggled to win even with a k.o in that judges mind! i think we need 5 judges and the 2 most crazy scores get dumped ,i really am getting sick of almost every fight having stupid scores
OKane hasn't got a great tank..gassed in the Ryder fight too...seems to happen more with the stocky muscular types. It nearly cost him the fight....
