    Corley always turns up to win even at this stage of his career.

    Actually prefer this to the Diaz fight :think

    Demarcus Corley?

    If so, despite having turned firmly into a gatekeeper, this fight gets a :happy from me. It'll be great to see Chop Chop over here again, a modern legend IMO.

    He's always got a performance in him too. McCloskey should win but underestimating him would be the worst thing he could possibly do. I'll be rooting for Chop Chop in this one.

    Not a terrible replacement. It's not like Diaz was a great opponent to begin with. The Prizefighter that night is what intrigues me far more anyhow.

    John Virgo :rofl

    Yeah it's not a bad fight, tbh could actually be a harder fight although not sure how styles will mesh for this one.

    Good enough fight for Dudey..

    Much better fight. Corley is closer to his best weight than Diaz, is trickier and can actually take a punch.

    I'd fancy him to win if it wasn't over here.

    Better than Diaz but still an awful opponent for a guy wanting to get another crack at a title.

    I look forward to the ring walks at least

    Actually I can see Corley pulling off a shock here. Counter puncher VS Counter puncher, and Corley's confidence will be sky high after his win against Bracero, if he wins this won then he could be back into world title contention. All the pressure is on dudey to perform especially infront of an Irish crowd. But dudey, is not a beastly puncher and does better against fighters who take the fight to him. Corley still has some hand-speed and like I said before a fighters confidence is VITAL.

    Now I've said there could be an upset, I fully expect McCloskey to win in two round. :think

    I actually like this fight, too. Corley isn't exactly in Vivian Harris form and I'm sure he won recently.
