    We'll certainly know a lot more about Green after Nov 17th.

    Flores is bigger, stronger, probably faster, and will definitely come to fight, because has everything to gain here.

    Let's hope Green lives up to the hype and does Australians proud, even the ones who hate him.

    As for Dannys jab he dropped Murdoch with it less than 12 months after going 10rds with Zsolt Erdie.
    He's also dropped Dominguez and Crawford from vicious LJ's.
    I dont know to many boxers that drop people from a jab:yep
    Will definatley be interesting to see how his jab goes against BJ who has a good jab of his own and a 7 inch reach advantage.

    He has a very powerful jab, but it's not his bread and butter weapon like say Kessler's or Klitschko's jab is for them.

    Apparently BJ Flores is getting $225k US for this fight.

    So Flores is already in the country, is he going to stay here or go back to the USA to train for the fight.?

    Thats a good payday for him. I would bet anything that he has to come down to some catchweight. We won't hear anything from Greens camp of course and on the day of weigh-in when we look up for the weights we will notice Flores weighed 189.5 or something unhealthy for him.:roll:

    not according to BJ Flores.
    Green is a good fighter, like I say, but he's a good light-heavyweight - he has to face a young, hungry fighter at cruiserweight to prove he's the real deal at cruiserweight. And I'm totally willing to go to Australia to fight him," he said. "Green needs to make a statement at cruiserweight - not just fight old guys who have been on the shelf, like Roy Jones and Antonio Tarver - and he would make a big statement if he beat me. But I don't think he can do it. I'm willing to lay it all on the line to find out though."
    Flores believes he will trouble Green - who fought at just 83.6kg against an overweight Briggs - with his genuine 90kg full cruiserweight frame.

    ...and by all reports, at least so far, it'll be set at the cruiser weight limit of 200 lbs.

    worth sitting the year out and not having a fight that's for sure, wonder if him leaving square ring promotions was the thing that got the fight over the line, dont think green wouldve fought bj cos he was managed by roys company and dont think he wants to pay roy anymore after the threat of legal action...
    and im a fan of bj think he will win and setup a decent career for himself after this...
    wonder if he gets paid for his espn appearences, seen hes constantly on friday night fights as a commentator in the states

    I'm still at a ****ing loss why he doesn't just go back to light heavy, there are winnable real titles there, and the division gets a lot more attention on the world scene.
