Whats the thoughts on these two tonight fella's? Im quite looking forward to find out the outcome....... will be a good test & level finder for the Americans. Is it on American TV? & if so, what time do the fights start Cheers..:thumbsup
Won't be staying up to watch it, so all you *******s best be seeding the card tomorrow morning for me on the torrent sites. I'm really looking forward to this card. Cloud-Johnson has my attention the most, though. I'm interested to see if Cloud can justify the hype he's been getting as I've only ever seen him in the Woods fight. Johnson is, as always, a very good yardstick. Should be an entertaining bout. Alexander decisions Kotelnik as well:woot.
Forgot about this....like Losfer, i'll be up early waiting for the seeding to begin :deal. I'll laugh my **** off if Kotelnik does a number on Alexander, and Johnson rolls back the years and lands big
People who say they arn't staying up to watch this are probably closet MMA fans who are watching tonights UFC card on ESPN instead.:yep
I think it'll be mighty close between Cloud and Johnson.. Split decision in Clouds favour... I also see Alexander making a fool of Kotelnik.. The Ukranian is just too 1 paced and predictable and has been out the ring far too long....
Agreed. But I always try to make the effort stupidly and then miss the undercard see a few rounds of the main event and then can't stop myself from check the result the next day before trying to watch it somewhere else. Alexander, whilst focusing on his own game, will want to show all the 140lbrs that he is the man. I don't think he'll blow Kot out of the ring but he'll want to do better than say... Khan. Who even though won on points always looked to me like he was bricking it and one crisis away from losing. Cloud needs the Johnson fight. It's the ideal fight to find out where he's at (I know he's champ but you know what I mean) and Johnson will give him hell for large portions of the fight. But it's a fight that Cloud will edge and improve greatly because of it. I'm hoping he wins because Cloud, Pascal(once he beats Dawson) and Cleverley (once he lands the WBO) is a good trio of champions with some great fights to be made.
If Alexander loses to Kotelnik i will literally eat my shoes. I know it's not impossible, but i seriously cannot see it happening
I think Kotelnik will be retired between the 10/11th, he's made to order for a fighter like Alexander to look faultless against. I think Glen Johnson will make it tough for Cloud. Even at his age, if Cloud can stop Johnson it will send out a statement. I fancy Cloud to win a decision, 115-113, but with Johnson pushing him hard throughout. Will be a corker IMO.
cloud and alexander are two of my faves at the moment, the kotelnik fight has a late stoppage written all over it. and can cloud stop johnson? i think he can. lets hope we get alexander/bradley and cloud vs the pascal/dawson winner next.
