    Neither is a world-class heavyweight at the present time, but it's an 50-50 fight.

    So it's another good, competitive matchup from Zuffa.

    Zuffa continues to deliver, despite the hordes of naysayers. Ideally Dana & Max could be replaced with less obnoxious figureheads, but the sport side of it has left little to gripe about.

    I signed up to P+ when Zuffa grabbed Opetaia. There has rarely been a mismatch and some great bouts. Even with the three movies and two series P+ offer as well, it has been the best boxing related subscription I have taken and I'm hoping badly will consign the PPV thieves to history.

    Wallin disgraced himself losing to Chisora, and is likely emotionally terrorized after the Joshua fight. Nonetheless,I do like the guy. If he had even respectable power, he'd be good.

    Sirenko unber-disgraced himself last time. This should be his last chance.

    I'll take Otto, who then challenges Gassiev, who ignores him for more lucrative opponents.

    These neglected eastern europeans could have used zuffa these last 25 years, better late than never I guess.

    That sounds exactly like what Itauma did when passing up on Gassiev

    Sirenko is a European-level fighter, while Wallin is on par with Dacres, so he should win this...

    Sirenko was impressive early in his career. But looked ATROCIOUS against Dacres.

    If the Dacres fight Sirenko turns up, Wallin wins easily just by doing that boring tippy tappy running **** he does.

    Actually exactlyt eh opposite.

    Gassiev was offering Itauma a path to the title.

    Wallin will be asking for a path to the title, offering nothing.

    Offering a chance at redemption for a loss he gets heavily criticised for

    Spin of how you want but break it down and if that scenario were to play out it's eerily similar
    A fighter looking for more lucrative options

    Exactly the same

    I would quite like Zuffa if it were not for the horrendous commentary.
    A lot of fans have compared Zuffa to FNF, and its a good comparison. Most of the cards have been rather good.

    Commentary and White's abrasive arrogance are downsides, but not one bad show with less of the willy spanking between bouts.

    Wallin if Sirenko has a repeat of the Dacres fight.

    Dacres is a good journeyman at best, and he genuinely schooled Sirenko.

    At the same time, I find it amazing how Wallin has a win over a current world champion which sums up the organisations.

    1. Unifications would be infinitely more legacy building.
    2. The much derided Chisora fight would be better, since Chisora both has a better legacy, and steamrolled Wallin.
