This saturday in Belfast Looking forward to it, should be a good fight and a cracking atmosphere. Who do you think wins? This content is protected
I agree and expect Donovan to win, but Crocker is always dangerous with his heavy hands- I think that will keep it interesting. Donovans chin hasn't really been tested yet. And Crocker has home advantage in Belfast. The bookmakers surprisingly have the odds really close like it's a 50/50.
While he's probably harder hitting of the two I think Crocker's punch power is exaggerated. Yes Tyrone McKenna is durable but the shots Crocker hit him with repeatedly hardly fazed him
I think Donovan wins this. People talk about Crockers power but I'm not seeing it. Donovan hits just as hard, if not harder and he's technically better then Crocker, wouldn't be surprised if he stops him but I think he wins it by UD
I see the IBF have upheld the Donovan team appeal and ordered a rematch I must say I am surprised by that. Obviously Donovan was totally dominant and I expect he will win the rematch comfortably now also.... However, the rules are the rules and the DQ was for a legitimate reason
Its unusual to see these appeals actually work. But reading through it, it sounds like the crux of it was that the IBF were satisfied that Donovan did not intend to hit after the bell which is a requirement for disqualification.
I think the DQ was spot on but also there should be an immediate rematch given the events from bell 1.
