Its In the Sunday Telegraph today... there set to fight in October "Good judges who have seen them both in training are picking a Hopoate victory"
Thanks mate........:good FORMER footy bad boy John Hopoate is to fight Willie Mason's brother Les in a heavyweight showdown at the Sydney Entertainment Centre in October. The fight will split sections of league fans, with Mason enjoying huge support from the Bulldogs and Hopoate having a great following with his former teammates at Manly and the Tigers. Good judges who have seen them both in the ring and in training are tipping a Hopoate victory. BTW........ Were you supposed to fight in Maitland this weekend? How did you go?
Is that going to be on the undercard to some non laughing stock fight? Surely it is not a main event.
Its just a bit **** that the average aussie who picks up a paper and turns to the back pages thinks that aussie boxing is all about a fat arse intruder fighting someone famous's brother, rather than reading about young up and comeing talent
Just a bit ****.... Its heaps ****..... never anything about anyone with talent like Katsidis or Billy Dib or anyone.
Fight will happen but not in October. Hop will first fight Kennedy for the state title. then Mason later on in the year and hopefully a rematch with fitz after that. Hops stamina will not be an issue. As more masons height and awkwardness thats a different issue. Dino
