2 British Title Eliminators, September 6th in Paisley

Whats happening with the British Super Bantamweight title? Is Mcdonnell fighting Whale in the remacth or jazza dickens?

 

I've never seen Cornish so can't call this one, I have seen Lewison live though when he was fighting Tom Dallas, from memory that was a pretty decent and lively fight whist it lasted, early 2nd round stoppage if I recall with Dallas being dropped a few times during the fight.

Youtube link here if anyone is interested in watching it (I'll watch it later to refresh my memory)

Ian Lewison fought again recently and somebody on here said he was very sluggish again, so Cornish might be getting him at the right time. Then again this is a big chance for Lewison so he will be motivated. Lewison looked good taking out Timo Hoffman and Tom Dallas who are big tall opponents like Cornish, so I'll go for Lewison in this one. I've also no seen much of Cornish and this is a big step up for him here.

Carslaw-Thain should be a tidy fight, but I fancy Thain with him being taller and longer. Carslaw's tough and he's got plenty of experience though, so it will be interesting.
It should be a decent night.

 

I would go to some of the smaller shows if tickets were cheaper. I have paid £40 to watch World Champions and Olympic Gold medalists, it's the same price for these up and coming youngsters on the smaller shows.

I realise the promoters need to cover costs but for me it's a bit steep. Especially when some are in sports centres and venues like that.

 

I see your point Jon, but I prefer the non-televised small hall shows especially when it's a decent card like this with a good co-main event.
IMO the televised cards should be better at times and you should get more for your money especially when you have the option to stay at home and watch it for nothing. It depends how big a fan you are I suppose.

 

same night as frampton martinez fancy thain to win and again like others not seen anything of cornish apart from boxec lol

 

Thain v carslaw a boring but close fight either of them couldn't knock snow of a rope so will go the distance

 

Haha worst analogy I have ever heard.. Snow of a rope!! Made my night though

 

Snow of a rope a good analogy haha yeah bit harsh of me to say boring fight bothy got different styles could gel well together I just like seeing power shots put people down

 

I honestly wouldn't watch Carslaw fight in my back garden - and I live in Paisley!!

 

He had a very close fight with Brian rose so he's British level

 

Lewison wins by stoppage within 6 rounds.

 

The Cornish-Lewison fight is bubbling up nicely as Lewison says Cornish is useless and he's going to flatten him! Lewison also added the only thing going for Cornish is he's fit!
That's the thing I fancy Lewison to get Cornish out early, BUT if he doesn't then I think he will be in trouble because IMO he isn't in any shape to go the duration.
