Finally taking each other on this week on the Hull card, both unbeaten and both big punchers. Towers has been out of the ring for about 18 months since his scare against Gregory Tony whilst Lucas has been active beating the likes of a washed up James Toney and last time had to get up off the floor to beat Travis Walker. Should be a good fight, who wins?
Towers for me. He has sparred with Haye and Klitschko, whilst its only sparring its valuable experience. As long as Towers stays disciplined and keeps to the fight plan, may get a stoppage late on.
Browne by KO, I'll be there to see it. Looking forward to a trip north to Hull. My preview - http://www.boxingnews24.com/2013/10/browne-vs-towers-heavyweight-commonwealth-eliminator/
Never met either but yeah they seem like sound blokes when I see them on interviews and such, Browne seems like a cool guy as well.
I'd be more inclined to back Towers. He's been sparring with some top pros, although his time out can't have done him any favours. Browne's a banger though, but was put down by Walker. I don't think either have been tested enough really. Either way, it's a good match-up.
This :good He was absolutely atsch and the fight could have been stopped in all honesty when he was being battered on the ropes throwing nothing back and jellylegged it back to the corner. I found it hilarious with this in mind that Haye managed to keep a straight face when he suggested Towers was superior to Fury and would beat him I would think Browne will put the pressure on and get Towers out of there in a couple of rounds - he seems very fired up for this from Twitter.
