    Thanks for the replies, we'll see who's right!

    I predict a Ugonoh UD for what it's worth ...

    Come on man, Long gave him some issues but lost clearly. Just a side note. I think Longs the best he's ever been - He's put everything together and has become a top notch journeyman. It's no coincidence he just upset Tupou and gave Browne and Ugonoh problems. I'm kicking myself for not throwing money down on him against Tupou, will definitely do so for the Haumono fight if the odds are good enough.

    February 3 ultimately will tender, which will select the host duel for the title of world champion WBO heavyweight between Joseph Parker (22-0, 18 KOs) and Hughie Fury (20-0, 10 KOs). Initially, the tender date was set for February 1.

    Previously, the parties concerned may agree on the organization of the championship clash with each other. If you do not reach an agreement and the tender will be necessary 60% of the declared the winner by the amount (minimum $ 1,000,000) will account for Parker, and 40% on account of Fury.

    Joseph Parker after the vacant title of the World Boxing Organization reached in December, beating points on Andy Ruiz Jr. Fury will join the fight against New Zealander as mandatory challenger

    In the spring Charles Martin will return to the ring (23-1-1, 21 KOs) - revealed in an interview with the magazine "The Ring" boxer's manager Mike Borao.

    30-year-old Martin in January last year, picked up the vacant IBF belt champion, defeating by TKO (injury rival) Vyacheslav Głazkow. American in April in the first defence, lost his trophy to Anthony Joshua.

    A few months later, "Prince Charles" was shot in the hand and had to take a break from training, but assures Borao, ex-champion already feels well and polishes the form with experienced Jameel McCline.

    Haha:

    Krzysztof Zimnoch (20-1-1, 13 KOs) responded very quickly to the words of Mike Mollo (21-6-1, 13 KOs), who threatened that if the organizers of the gala scheduled for Feb. 25 in Szczecin, does not meet its requirements concerning the organization of the flight from the United States and the brand of gloves he will withdraw from the duel rematch with the Pole.

    - Mike come over and fight man, and does not behave like a princess. Both will have the same gloves, little I care what they give us, and both standard flights, this also does not have a problem - says Zimnoch.

    Mollo accused the organisers of the Szczecin gala disrespectful. American claims that he should be treated better after many years in the ring and several duels with the Polish fighters.

    - Do not talk about the lack of respect, because it is waiting for you in Poland many of your supporters, like nowhere else in the world. I earn some pretty good money. Last year, for her to fix the food, and this year fix a bathroom. Do not whine just come over, you will be pleased - concludes Zimnoch.

    Fighters met in the ring for the first time in February last year. Mollo unexpectedly knocked Pole in the first round.

    Scumbag Mollo hurt Zimnoch on the break and the ref was too inept to catch it. Only a minute in Zimnoch was doing some decent work.

    Wait...he is training with McCline now, or sparring with him? I didn't know McCline was still active in boxing/sparring, this is great news, he can be a solid trainer.

    Yeah he's been doing work as a trainer for a couple of years now. I think the last time he did serious sparring was a few years back for a Wlad fight, think it was Wach.

    That's awesome, thanks. Always seemed like a really nice guy and was so close to capturing the title against Peter. I was rooting for him "Big Time" in that one lol.

    Yeah he's had some unlucky calls. Probably should have gotten the nod against Byrd as well. Still has some solid wins in any case.

    Agreed, I think Ugonoh won clearly though not particularly impressively.

    That being said, Ugonoh was badly hurt at one point and was saved by the bell IMHO.
