    I thought he came across well, If he thinks he can knock out Rogan in 3 then he's deluded, I've seen the Kingpin fight and he's not as good as he thinks he is, but tbh he sounded like an alright guy and it was a good interview.

    If I could map out Dunnes Career I would do the following:

    Munroe first. (Tough fight with Munroes tidy defence. Dunne UD I think)

    Then Poonswat (Think Dunne can come through this one in Dublin)

    Next up Cabellero (I think Dunne has a chance against Cabellero. Much weaker than Vazquez/Juanma with significant defensive flaws. Would be a tough fight that would need to be in Dublin. Head would say Cabellero but Dunne has the potential to upset him. In fact if Cabellero would indeed come to Dublin I would take that fight now if its on offer.)

    If he gets through all those oponents which will be tough then the only place to go will be to Vazquez/Marquez/Juanma. Which Dunne would be a serious underdog in.

    Good assessment cornerman. The trio you listed at the end of your post, Vazquez/Marquez/Juanma would seemingly be the toughest of Dunne's challenges, and obviously Lopez[Juanma] seems like the "monster" of the division. So the route you proposed might well be in thinking with Dunne's management[Brian Peters].Although Peters and Dunne are maybe looking to cash-in on their recent success, hit the big time for one meaty payday. My only fear about Dunne taking the "easier route" would be that there is a possibility that his excellent but gruelling title win might have taken to much out of him, and that he won't have anymore nights like that left in the tank.

    Yes theres a risk but theres good money there to fight Munroe. I'm not sure he'll make much more if at all by taking on one of the big guns now. I think if he wants to make his name in this division the easier route is the one to take. He needs to train like he did for cordoba. You could tell by looking at Dunne before the fight that he looked a lot stronger and that proved to be the case. He needs to get himself into that sort of shape for every fight from here on out.

    A win over Munroe would get that Martinez ****** of his back and he'll make a lot of money in the process. Munroe is no bum but I think Dunne can take this guy. UD I think.

    I'd like to see him skip Munroe and go for Molitor or caballero, both tough fights but winnable in my opinion.

    Yeah. I hear what your saying. Still. This fight has a lot of interest. It would generate huge interest in England and Ireland like any other England versus Ireland event.

    I wouldn't rule out anything. Perhaps Dunne can do the travelling for a venue like the Walkers Stadium and perhaps they can co-promote it.

    I have a feeling this fight is going to happen at some stage.

    Also, Cabellero v Dunne in Dublin would be amazing too. If its this fight instead of Munroe then I won't mind.

    Molitor doesn't have the bite for me at the moment. No title and no real grudge between the 2. Would be a good boxing match but not ahead of the 2 match ups above.

    Also never said the fight would be easy to make I don't think. But it can be made.
