As you well know, fight fans follow the sport for contests, genuine contests, and from those contests we are occasionally blessed with a truly great fight.

Fans are not interested in mismatches where the bloke in the other corner has never won a fight. Or, though he might have an American accent, is only an aging, damaged shell of his former self. That's a large part of why Mark deMori has virtually no following, and is resorting to any cheap gimmick he can to try and draw attention to himself.

And y 99.5% of aussies don't know about de mori at all....eagle has a background lol....haumono was walk out half decent nrl player who has a decent boxing record(plus we remember him for the pleasure machine), Browne was kickboxing champ who ko'd Colin Wilson which many Aussies watched..... Wat has de Mori done Even tho he has talent ?... Jack diddly...oh he got signed by DK but where has that got him......Paul Briggs?, Kali Meehan.....

don't know what that does for haumono tbh.

its a lose lose fight imo.

a loss would be terrible. and lets face it, ben has huge power to make any opponent nervous.

a win against a part time boxer with defencive flaws would do little for him.

i think haumono should target chauncy welliver or someone like that and train like its a world title fight, no more ***** footing around.

if he has 2 months notice for a good opponent, then he can be prepared properly on fight night, no excuses then.

Part time is right. Edwards has stated on several occasions that he is a kick boxer, that is what he loves/prefers and it makes him more money. He's never in shape, not even for kickboxing fights. Not sure why he dabbles in boxing. All you are left with is some exciting power punching, and we saw where that got Leapai on the weekend. Browne v Edwards would be a much more even affair.
