Really hope it happens!!! johns already back in training though has to rest his hands for a few weeks after fridays fight. he thought he had broken his hand but its just badly bruised. Didnt know he had to cut short his sparring a week short for the trusott fight due to his wisdom tooth only know cause i met him at the dentist today!! haha!
lindsay will win by late stoppage...simpson will eat lindsays left hookss all night long...much in the same way appleby did
I think Simpson will beat Lindsay .Think his experience plus he looks as if he's getting stronger .Against Truscott he looked solid and dug deep.He's boxed more than double the rounds as Lindsay as well .Don't think he would be stupid enough to get stopped because his experience or get caught with any shots like the one Matthews got caught with.Simpson stoppage , hopefully if it goes ahead .Simpson decision , good chance. Lindsay stoppage , would be the first .Lindsay decision , close maybe but think Simpson would outbox him.
irishman,diffrent fighter diffrent styles,john will be more than a handful for anyone in europe now,simpson to win in a very good fight.
Very honest of you, Billy. Lindsay is one of my fave British fighters and I think this has epic written all over it if it happens. With so many quality dust-ups signed and in the pipeline, this would be another fantastic addition to the British boxing schedule:yep. I just hope we don't have to wait until January to see this fight as it's ages away!
EXCELLENT fight this one if it comes off!!!!!! Winner will be ready to conquer Europe I feel :deal What a war this could be.
if its in belfast...the waterfront holds around 3000 or the ulster hall 1200 would be suitable venues...the oddssey holds 10000 and kings hall 7000 would be much to big for lindsay to fill...but i suppose it depends on what sort of spin it gets from the media...last time lindsay-appleby got no attention at all yet lindsay managed to fill the ulster hall
Martin to win on points in a Belfast cauldron. Hopefully Haymaker will splash out and make the fight for the Kings Hall. Big respect to Billy and John as well tho'! :good
