    I'll have to have a look into this guy but it is just nice to hear Dunne is fighting again and that he is wanting good opponents.

    Here is Marchiano's fight with Abner Mares [yt]0zOzUNz6L10[/yt] , the rest of the fight is on there marked under the headings 123 .

    Marchiano is very like Wayne McCullough in many ways , appearance , style , toughness , natural Bantamweight .

    He hurts Mares badly enough in round two and stuns him a little a few times in the fight . In the centre of the ring he seems easy to outbox but he is reasonably effective when he has his man on the ropes and will wing away with punches . He seems to have a good chin and liver too and Dunne will probably have to go the distance .

    Considering it's only 3 months since the Machado fight and a Martinez/Munroe fight seems unegotiable at the minute I don't think it's a bad fight . There are better tests out there but Marchiano is no bum .
