    Gomez seems a bit unhinged.

    Okolie is fighting the deceased Hamburger icon Dave Thomas? Matchmaking really blows these days :eatingburger

    He's the second best CW behind Opetaia in Australasia. He's tough, has a bit of pop but has suspect defense. He does the basics well. He has a chance albeit slim. He's not lightening fast or anything. I think he doesn't posses the tools to cause the upset.

    He's tough, can punch a bit, but basic and ultimately too small. Octopolie is a HW with SHW dimensions fighting at CW

    "These are tv fighters". No mate, they be on the internet having been explicity excluded from the television broadcast.

    Fun, brave scrap though between McKenna and Grant and nice to see quite a few folks in to see it already.

    Ive vriticised NZ boxing for eons about their defence, chjin in air and poor head and hip movement hence why i believe david tua is by far our best boxer ever. Had at least the head movement and looked the part

    i once wrote on a nz site that it's all about the knockouts after tua became a household name, and the craft doesnt mean shite for kiwis. and boxing has suffered. boxers needed to be knockout kings up until and including the Parker era. Parker's straight back head in air defence is Kiwi defence. there's np market for boxers with self preservation in mind down there

    Yes, I think your guys are starting to bridge the gap though and Down Under boxing has improved
