    How do you see this going? who should be betting favourite?
    I've never seen Flores fight but he's unbeaten. Hopefully Wilson lays him out, after that Jirov youtube video stunt he pulled.

    Which stunt was that? You'd think someone named "BJ" would have enough problems.

    I think Wilson has fought by far the better competition. His experience, solid chin and power will nullify BJ's speed advantage. I expect Ding will win by KO in the mid to late rounds, but will take a lot of shots in the process.

    This should be a great fight and a great test to see what BJ brings to the ring.

    I'm taking Wilson in this fight - and I'm actually going.

    I live in Delaware - and the fight is about 40 minutes from me in Dover, Delaware. It's a ESPN FNF show and the tickets start at $35 - so why not. Plus I want to meet Teddy Atlas - so hopefully I'll get my chance then.

    Darnell Wilson KO in around 7.
    BJ is untested, will last a few rounds prob before getting stopped.
    Wilson just has too much power.
    Would be great to see Wilson fight Cunningham for the IBF Title, should all go good here.
    Would suit a HBO BAD telecast or Showtime card perfectly.

    he posted a video of him making Jirov do a silly dance and on spaghetti legs in sparring, sparring. Then directed people towards it in the interview he did. Sureyl what happens in the gym stays in the gym?
    That's why it would be satisfying to see him get laid out by Wilson.

    Actually, if you really think about it, he has the style and attributes that should trouble me more than the other fighter out there (aside from 05 thru summer 06 when I was sick). On top of that, he doesn't know how to lose as he is still undefeated.

    That said, after my victory on the 8th, I will have shown that I can overcome my toughest style match up. As we know, he's quicker than Haye and moves around the ring faster. So after seeing how I catch him, it will leave little doubt that I can catch anyone else.

    Also has dropped rounds to some very mediocre fighters.

    He'll likely be intimidated by Ding's power and Flores doesn't have the kind of power like Nwodo had, or Davis even, to make Ding think twice about keeping the pressure up.

    I think Ding will get him in 5 rounds.

    Who do they have you working with to prep for this one in sparring? Did they get you some good partners or what?
