    I'm going col on this one, he still has enough smarts for hoppa and that awkward punching style.

    Tend to agree with this....I think Hoppa will win but Col's southpaw style will take some getting use to.

    Would this be the first time an Australian title is contested out of Australia?

    Beat me to it Leon - Auckland I think it was back in the 90's, Craig never made it through customs in that fight, it was pretty one-sided

    It's a Hoppa win for mine - may even stop him.

    Col's only won 1 of his last 8, and that result was turned around in a rematch (Leapai).

    Col's biggest hurdle has always been his attitude towards training. He hasn't trained properly in years & his results have shown this. I don't rate Hoppa much as a fighter at all, strong yes but skill wise..............the bucket is empty there. But if you stand in front of him & let him pound away on you, he will stop you. Col won't train therefore its a Hoppa win for mine.

    Sadly true, still going with him on this one especially if he can limit the previous nights traing :drink.

    Otherwise he really should give it away.

    Interesting one that, Boxrec has both listed as being fought in Victoria? A mistake perhaps? The second fight appears to have been for both the Aussie and Australiasian title.

    The Victorian listing may refer to the Brian Amatruda H/W spectacular thats been making a little noise...

    like I said... a little noise.
