    Rip him up Jack!

    Jack is probably much better, but I'll put some money on the draw though.

    Dunno about Gvozdyk being ducked. Ramirez expressed his desire to fight Gvozdyk the other day and I reckon guys like Alvarez, Bivol and Beterbiev would jump at the chance to face him.

    Ramirez likes to talk big, as far as I understand... :smile:

    And Gvozdyk is if not ducked, but avoided, definitely... Let's look at it. Badou Jack, who almost won against the former WBC champion, now instead of demanding a fight vs. Gvozdyk, he... just silently goes to fight for an interim title of another boxing association... :dunno

    I can't really register that as a duck. Just look the fighters Jack has fought in the last 3 years.

    Anthony Dirrell.
    George Groves.
    Lucian Bute.
    James Degale.
    Nathan Cleverly.
    Adonis Stevenson.
    and now Marcus Browne.

    Plus if he wins against Browne, he is likely headed towards a fight with Bivol, another beast.

    Maybe that's it — cool calculation, and he just considers Bivol an "easier" champ (not intended to be disrespectful to Bivol, let's say Jack considers him as better risk/reward opportunity) to beat.

    This.
    And Jack chose Stevenson over Bivol. I still don't see how people call it a duck.
    It's like when Bradley "ducked" Khan to fight Pacquiao.

    Jack has balls, he will fight anyone.

    Got to be better than Browne for me to make the same mistake of picking against Jack again. Badou's the man, always rooting for him.

    It's a great undercard fight. Jack is going to win. I see Browne is rated as a big talent and I don't understand it. He's ok but overrated, at least not at the level of top 5 or 6 light heavyweights right now. I had him clearly loosing to Kalajdzic, who got robbed.

    He ducked Bivol and will do his best to duck Gvozdyk, did you see the look on his face right after he saw Gvozdyk KO the Pimp? He looked mortified.:deal: Yeah, Jack has taken on the best, and full credit to him, but let's be honest, coming off of the KO loss, he had nothing to lose against Dirrell and Groves, then after upsetting the apple cart twice, barely, he believed in himself enough to beat DeGale, Bute and Clev who weren't big punchers. The Pimp was a calculated risk that almost paid off. From here on out, he'll become increasingly skittish.

    After listening to the media conference, I got the impression that Browne might win this. :shocked: He's motivated, confident. Has been preparing (in his words) very hard for this fight.
