Barry Hall going pro

He also said he expected his career to last no longer than 3 years. How far can he really go in 3 years. How many times per year does he need to fight before he starts facing opposition of a higher level. I cant imagine that he would fight more than 5 times a year. thats 15 fights. What kind of opponents will he be facing in his last 3 or 4 fights?

 

Me with the Australian Heavyweight Division being well pretty ****ing ****.

I hope by his 6th or 7th fight he fights for that title and by maybe his 11th he fights someone in the top 10 by the IBF.

Michael Kirby is the current holder of the Australian Title
But he will probably lose it to Lucas Browne in Feb next year

OK ive been through and planned out a sort of fight schedule that i think might take place for Barry over 3 years.

Year 1
1. Anthony Fowler 2-3-0
2. Mick King 4-1-0
3. George Poulivaati 6-1-0
4. Ben Wrotniak 4-0-0
Year 2
5. Richard Tutaki 19-21-1
6. Michael Kirby 10-4-2
7. Lucas Browne 10-0-0
Year 3
8. Mark DeMori 17-1-0
9. Derek Chisora 15-2-0
10. Chris Arreola 34-2-0 Or someone of that ilk that may have a title depending on the Klits of course. They will probably be retired in 3 years.

But having said this and set it up you just dont know what will happen to any fighters in this time i just gave a guideline to how i would be setting it up.

But in Australia its harder than you think to make a fight with Heavyweights. But having said that all will be saying yes please if Barry sells seats and PPV's which he will.

 

My god you have thought about this....

 

Boppa, he doenst need to be limited to fighting aussies in his pre Oz title fights...

 

if he has such a boxing pedigree, and STILL cant punch, then he never will NEVER get it.

punching is like sprinting. either you have it, or you dont. he hasnt got time to become a good heavy with little power. he needs what hoppa had. punching power, and a better chin.

 

u mean a guy weighing 105kg putting a great bare knuckle punch on the chin of a guy not even watching showed barry's talent?

hmm.

 

He is taking it serious and he can hit lets be honest now Buster.

My whole point is he has a different approach to it than say Sonny Bill though. Its not going to be circus.

 

I know its just they tell me its hard finding fighters to fight these days at that weight.

 

And Carl Webb....****, Webb gassed after 54 seconds...lol...at least Hall is hitting the ground running and in some kind of athletic condition.

 

I just wonder how Hall will react when he hits someone and instead of crying on the sideline, they dont even flinch and grin right back at him.

Being a hard mother ****er in AFL, or NRL for that matter, isnt going to cut it in the world of boxing.

 

hes going to find it different when some **** is in his face, punching back, even when he thinks hes hit em hard.....and they keep coming.

theres nowhere to hide. he'll find out a lot about himself over the next 2 years....

 

:deal

Boxing is what life is all about.

 

I'm yet to see him hit someone who is looking at him though. He stuns some beanpole with his hands in the air and that means he has power:yep. I'll be watching him fight but it's hard to judge how he'll go based on his AFL 'fights'. I remember seeing Mundine have a punchup and you could see he had plenty of speed but no one ever shapes up and fights in AFL. But he seems to have the right attitude so good luck to Hall.

 

i heard green say that barry has fast hands when asked if barry is a powerful puncher.

I dont know if that means green is dumb or if he didnt want to hurt barrys feelings.
