Alex 'LIONHEART' Leapai vs Pieter 'THE DESTROYER' Cronje

thats good to hear, but he still did take some heavy blows a few right hands, certainly one thing about alex ducks no one.. and his improvement is showing... who is in the works for his next fight? does he work also or is boxing his full time job...

 

Woodridge? Isnt that where JT's uncle got killed? Is that a dodgy area or just get a bum rap in the media

 

It ain't the flashest in the world bushboy

 

Possibly as a PPV if it's a co main event with another decent HW fight like Solo v Nathan Briggs etc.

 

Definetely PPV worthy, an exciting match up for sure, Congrats on the other night "team lionheart" it was a great fight and a great win. I was at the fight and whilst I agree it was close I thought Alex definetly won by at least a couple of rounds.

 

just a quick question would cronje have been standing if he had been hit that many times by hopoate or haumono?

personally i don't believe so, but that doesn't neccessarily mean that they would both beat cronje either i suppose.

 

If Cronje survives first 2 rds from Hoppa and first 4 rds from Solo i reckon he wld beat them over 10-12rds

 

I agree beavs, hoppa and solo both lack the tough fight experience that leapai has gained.
His very first fight in the pros was a hard encounter with mark de mori and he hasnt had many easy fights since.

At this stage of their respective careers i'd say leapai beats them both over the distance with his experience, Hoppa has never fought the class of leapai and haumono has simply never been in the deep-end in a fight.

 

hoppa did however fight big bob and would of gained alot from that...
and sol did fight cliff couser who is better then what his record suggests recently.... all in all its very good time to be a fan of the aus heavyweights all pretty evenly matched and pretty decent punchers who come in the ring very fit...
however i think sol is the pick of the lot, absolute big puncher hopefully he can keep stepping it up...

 

i don't like watching heavyweights i thought it died out a years ago, after watching leapai and cronje slug it out on foxsports i'v never seen a fight like that in years only worldclass fighters and leapai i feel has a great chin, great power and hand speed when generated and the combinations he puts on, not many heavyweights can do that.i had in mine if the fight went to 12rnds leapai would of ko/tko cronje, fitness played a part which if leapai really improves he would be devastating in his weight.
Papers says he's calling out hoppa,mirovic,demori,briggs & carl webb in hs sights etc this shows this kid ducks no one, Our heavyweights look really good in this generation i'm 39 yrs & i felt 21 after feeling that vibe watching leapai & cronje good on you boys.

 

hate to say but after looking at Haumono's rec he'll KO or TKO Leapai, Hoppa, Cronje or our top heavies with in 1st to 3rd rnd easy with out a doubt but i guess i don't know how good haumono's opponents are,it says he's undefeated so it should be a easy walk for haumono.

like i said i'm back to watching h/w now & half of them i don't know & their rec.
