    I think Fisher punched himself out early last time.

    Fisher if he doesn’t punch himself out this time.

    From what I understand Allen is a guy Fisher trained with coming up. Allen was the guy Fisher looked up to. I think going into the fight he was maybe a little bit intimidated and going in too hard. And punched himself out. I think if he is more methodical working behind the jab and the straight right hand he will win.

    He didn´t. Allen cracked him with a bit of a lucky shot in the 5th. To Allen´s credit, he did not let Fisher recover from it.

    Allen got robbed that night, It was a clear win for him. But I don´t think he can do it twice.

    Allen won the first fight, they're both weak gatekeepers at best.

    As for the rematch, hard to say - I think it will be a pretty close and ugly fight again. I get the feeling that Fisher respects Allen's power, more than Allen respects Fisher's power. I think Fisher will win a close decision again but this time he will deserve it more than the first fight, but I won't be surprised if Allen wins this one.

    I love dave Allen, without scoring the first fight properly I have re watched it and I think Allen by one point is around fair. I wouldn't say a draw is terrible opinion either. But I do think Allen deserved the victory.

    For the rematch, I feel Allen will be about the same, you know what you are gonna get with him, experience, instinctive fighter and solid chin. However I don't see him being better and also still gets tired from round 6 on.
    Fisher on the other hand can learn from first fight and as a young fighter can add 10 or 20% from that first learning fight which leads me to believe he will win the rematch. Either by corner stoppage or points but actually win it properly.
    If he stays the same and Allen goes in from the first bell with the know how of how to win then of course he can win.

    Intriguing fight that I slightly favour fisher in

    Fisher is a domestic level fighter, even if he beats Allen it's only a matter of time before someone knocks him out, I don't see him getting far in his career, all in all Fisher is winning this the hard way...

    Yea, domestic level is his ceiling. Any of the top contenders are going to crush him.

    Fisher is a very likeable young lad but he ain’t going places. Except maybe the local Chinese restaurant for a feed.

    I ever so slightly favour him to nick the rematch. That’s only if he learnt from the experience.

    Fair play to Fisher he's a warrior but world level I dunno if he can get there. This is definitely the best fight for him in terms of learning and marketability. Having said that I'm still supporting Allen I like the wiley old under dog.
