I'm sort of looking forward to it. Not a terrible line up more like the light middleweight on that didn't live up to it sadly. Pickering Vs Wale Moran Vs Casey Reid Vs Owen Turley Vs Arthur I'm hoping for a good show from Casey but IMO he has the worst draw Moran is a tough task for anyone at a domestic level never mind a 5 fight prospect. Good odds though: Owen 5/2 Arthur 9/2 Casey 5/1 (Irish fighters always have shorter odds for some reason) Moran 5/1 Pickering 6/1 Wale 6/1 Turley 20/1 Reid 33/1
Pickering i feel shouldn't be in a ring...he's punchy and his resistance is on wane. I don't see him winning. It's wide open though really is...Arthur's recovered very quickly from that beating he got off Lindsay.
Nah i've never seen him but looking at record...spread of 6 years 11-0..nothing stands out really. Cut in last fight as well.. I have you right..Moran 5/1...i'm all over that. A very good Amateur and only beaten by a top class fighter in Booth. Moran's big and Strong at weight as well. Only drawback coming off a loss. I go for Moran but Casey is a real darkhorse..whoever wins that is my man. Casey digs by looks of record. He may catch Moran with ring rust and doubt in mind... I like Arthur after the Lindsay fight but i don't think he will do it.
Just seen Casey...looks like a ginger version of Micheal Gomez....seems like a war monger who will entertain...who knows...could be the next Rogan???? I dunno if that's the type of fighter Moran needs to have straight off after Long Layoff...
ring rust it the only thing holding me back from betting on him, think i'll stick 15 or 20 on moran. Same ideas as you if Moran is rusty he may shake it off before Casey gets him in a fight. If he is fit and ready Moran could run away with this. Might fish around for info on Owen i've not heard much about him but him being favorite has me worried.
Not overly looking forward to it. It's lost something without McCullough no matter how shot and I don't think it works with the little men.
