    I can't believe this is viewed as a 50-50 fight. If Mak loses it would be one of the most pathetic things ever to happen in boxing.

    With the crowd rallying behind him, I think Allen might just get the win.

    Maks already struggled with fighters around Allan's level ( different attributes but Vianellio is no world level fighter) so if Dave wins its not that huge a shock. Mak looks good puncher but there's not a lot left after that. If Allan can land his own big shots things will get interesting quickly.

    Allen will probably quit on his stool then come back in 2 years saying how he’s training harder than ever and this time it’s different.

    Vianellio is at the very least European level
    Is Allen?

    It's a fun match up however
