    Its always interesting what odd the bookies give for both fighters, And it adds a little bit more spice to the fight for the fan when there is money riding on it,

    Many a time i watch the 2nd division football, and taught it was great cos i had them in an accumalator,:lol:

    Ah either way, i read loads on Faceb**k and a couple of other sites about things gonna be nasty down there with unruly fans and what not

    What do yous folks think??

    There definitely will be a lot of rough heads there but it shouldn't put you off. Unless you are looking for trouble you should be alright. I've never seen any bother at any of the UL shows. I can't make any promises though.

    Whilst there is a big diffrence between an andy lee crowd and a willie casey crowd i never heard of trouble at any of caseys fights.
    I was in cork and the crowd certainly were intimidating but didnt see any trouble.

    If Mccoskey-Olugesun comes off it will be a tough to call imo, id lean slightly towards Mccloskey at this point but id say its going to be a close fight whoever wins

    Id be picking McCloskey, just dont think Olusegon does enough work. Have to say that I think their styles will make for a stinker of a fight though

    I feel the same.
    Still not sure about McCloskey against southpaws, although that is only based on the Wright fight and 4 rounds against Lauri.

    Could be a really messy fight. Also think that Paul should switch to orthodox at times during a fight as well. Keeps the opponent guessing and Paul is right handed anyway

    Wouldnt mind paying that. You pay 3.50 for it in my local. That and Harp would be the cheapest gaggle.

    Been thinking Hyland Casey is a 50 / 50 here and could be a great fight.
    Here is the way I see it.
    Hyland wins on
    1> Experience
    2> Skill
    3> slightly better defence!

    Casey wins on
    1> Power
    2> work rate
    3> momentum

    It's a very tough fight to call. I think Casey is naturally more likely to get the KO but Hyland could win this on points and I'm thinking this is just about how it will pan out.

    I think Casey might just bring the best out of Hyland but if he connects it's light out I think.
