Brian Magee

I hope that doesn't happen either, but you never know, it wouldn't be the first time a Danish fighter got a hometown decision. But as it is for the EBU title hopefully they found some neutral judges. Larsen is fighting for German team Sauerland now, they do have a lot of power in European boxing though, but rumour also has it that Sauerland hasn't been too happy with Larsen lately and don't want to offer him a new contract, so maybe they don't care if he wins or loses.

Anyways, I think it will be a good fight. Two talented fighters who are both ageing, but I'm sure still come to prove a point and will be motivated to win that title. I will watch it on Danish TV, although the fight takes place in the city I live in, Aarhus, but it's a bit expensive.

By the way, when it comes to predicting the outcome, it isn't easy. I have only seen a bit of Magee's fight against Froch. Larsen hasn't been all that convincing since his comeback, but in his latest fight he finally managed to KO his opponent, and he looked better than in previous fights doing so. Seemed like he had finally manged to get rid of the ring rust that came from 4 years of inactivity But the opponent wasn't all that impressive though, so hard to tell exactly where he is at. I figure the coming fight will continue into the late rounds, probably will be a 12-rounder. I favour Larsen slightly, I have never really seen him in major trouble or outmatched in a fight, so maybe that's why. But Magee will definately be one of his very toughest opponents yet.
