Anyone think Marsh can upset Matthews, I think Derry is too strong for Matthew and may even stop him, cannot see Marsh keeping enough distance to box and not sure he is strong enough inside to cope with the scouser. Isaac Ward seem to have a toughie on Friday against Laryea the guy who fought Nicky Cook a few years ago, decent enough scrap though Anyone got any views on the above two fights
Agree with you about the matthews/marsh fight think matthews will be too strong also think matthews experience will tell too come a bit early for marsh for me but who knows stranger things have happened. wouldnt be suprised though if if the decision has already been decided as happened to someone i know against matthews give u a guess hes the guy on the left in my aviatar but aint going into that debate again!
See from FWTV that Matthews wants to fight Khan! Hes quoted as saying hes got no problem going up to Lightweight to take Khan on. Acknowledges Khans a great fighter but says he would hit him the hardest he has ever been hit and end his unbeaten record.
does anyone know why nicky cook isnt fighting on the undercard of matthews-marsh? wasnt he scheduled to fight on sat night?

You didn't miss much, Ward got easily taken apart. He came out throwing punches like he was some kind of big hitter, and got used for target practice. When he got asked afterwards if he got beat by the better man, he sid "No, not really", and came out with some excuses. To be honest the whole affair made poor viewing, and I think Sky needs to buck their ideas up a bit.
i think the term "in over your head" could have been invented for ward in this one.i noticed as early as the 1st minute that he was in trouble with the body shots although the commentators didn't seem to pick up on it until late in the 2nd.he was way out of his depth in all departments but showed good bravery.
I never saw someone as out of their dept as Ward was, he was leading with his face and upperbody..that was his main attack option
how the hell does ward get to top a friday fight night. atsch sky should have bought the sam peter-jameel mccline rights.
