Warren won the puse bids for this. Konecny is the EU champ (level below the full Euro belt). Tough fight for Hall, especially after the loss to Small.
wasnt Rhodes going to fight this guy. not for the belt but due the the fact he is ranked top 10 by the WBO, IBF and WBC.
This is a really tough fight after such a damaging loss (more so his confidence damaged than any physical damage) - Warren must have some faith in him.
yer hally told us at the macklin fight the other night, was suprised he got a shot like that but good luck to him!!!
He's a good fighter when fighting the right way for his style....head movement and stiff jab and combination's. I know alot of people liked Small and a lot of people were very impressed by him against Hall...i give Small credit but i do feel Matthew played into his hands a hell of a lot that night.
Konecny plays into Hall's hands too. Whether he's classy enough to beat him is another matter, but Konecny is very flat footed, likes to fight in close, and never backs down. Will be a great fight.
tony when is your next fight? you need to step up in class, your wasting away bashing up these part time fighters, you could be moved up faster you were a world class amature
have you seen improvment in hall since he came to Arnies gym? he seems a pretty limited fighter to me.
Another fighter getting a shot at the title when he is coming back from a defeat dont know how that happens but its happening quite alot lately.... Good luck to Mathew Hall though if the fight is made, Havnt seen to much of this Konecny but from what i have seen Hall should Ko him no problem.
Not true at all. Konecny has never been KO'd and has fought world class opponents like Dzinziruk and Gevor.
Like i have said havnt seen much of the guy but from what i have seen i think Hall should deal with him. Got any footage of the lad like ?
He's not spectacular, he doesn't move well, so he will give Hall a lot of chances. Hall is poor at cutting the ring off, but that shouldn't be a problem with this chap; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5gmQa9w-nw [DM]x8tu8w_lukas-konecny-vs-jimmy-colas-part-1_sport[/DM] [DM]x8tvdk_lukas-konecny-vs-jimmy-colas-part-2_sport[/DM] [DM]x8twfy_lukas-konecny-vs-jimmy-colas-part-3_sport[/DM]
