They should wear Reyes. Back-and-forth contest, Hall punching the fight out of McDonnell down the stretch.
what did annoy me tonight is them saying about mcdonnel not impressing hall when mcdonell was fighting a former world title eliminator challanger and in his last fight hall fought john donelly
Otieno isn't a former world title challenger... but still a valid point about Donnelly. I'd forgotten how one sided that was.
:nono he wasn't a world title challenger he only has fought for international IBF?WBC titles not a bad level admittedly but a fair bit off world level. Hall has looked pretty devastating against all domestic comers ok maybe its not a great level but he has dealt with all of them convincingly.
They're listed at the same height but it seems to me that McDonnell must have a considerable reach advantage, no? Besides, Stuey doesn't box as tall with his head generally bowed to keep off-center. My guess is that the roofer makes it difficult but the jab and high-level experience of the rail-thin boy wonder see him through.
The longer they leave it, the more I fancy Hall to win. He actually looks like he's improving with each fight..... McDonnell seems to have plateau'd somewhat, and is obviously pretty tight at the weight. If it's made next, and there's no reason why it shouldn't be..... it's a pretty much even fight. Agree with Flea though, if it's BBE gloves it's a snoozefest, probably with both suffering broken hands due to being unable to make a clenched fist properly.
Another thing that made this K.O so amazing at the time [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7Sj6QxrTI8[/ame] Although these haven't got the black section, so maybe they're a better BBE glove :rofl
