    Tom is 7-0, and has the opportunity to get the heads up on on the pack of new heavies by beating the man who beat Danny

    Doesn't mean anything in regards to the Prizefighter format. 3 rounds forces guys to fight a totally different fight, I'd be surprised if Baker did the same job on Williams in a British Title Fight. He's still the same fighter, overweight, poor stamina, open and techniquely poor with regards to placement of his power punching. Fury is ahead of the pack at the moment with the win over McDermott, even if it is debatable.

    Dallas should win. He fights tall, as long as he keeps his chin out of the way for the first couple he'll be fine. Can't exactly see Baker whipping himself into supreme condition.

    Quite like the look of Dallas, very upright but seems to have all the tools and should stop Baker easily enough when the big fella gets tired.

    Anyone know how many rounds this fight is over.

    Dallas is alright. He's a big brute of a guy, quite imposing. As others have said very very stiff and upright looking, which can be a problem especially as a heavy with bombs flying around. But his skills are solid enough and he's got a fair dig, harder than Fury thats for sure !

    Barker is a decent guy with a good punch but little else. The prizefighter format suited him, he ****ed up not coming in better shape because with a bit more fitness he could have kept on punching and KO'ed Coleman.

    I really rate Dallas. Tall with decent skill and a meaty punch plus very fit so he should feature heavily on the domestic scene soon. Dallas will win probably by late TKO.

    I think that Dallas can beat Baker quite convincingly...Good sparring vid with Price... I hope that they both do well and brighten up the heavyweight scene at the moment...

    I have to reluctantly agree that at the moment Fury has the edge... I think that Price will take Fury in the paid ranks when they eventually meet...:bbb
