    I know this isnt the biggest fight on a big night of boxing tonight but still like to know what you guys think of this fight. While it looks like Paul should win by decision, I reckon Corley might win by TKO.

    So Corley wins but loses on the judges cards then.

    Corley's very dangerous, he punches really hard & accurate, he's a talented boxer who can brawl & he ain't phased by travelling, McCloskey really struggled with Prescott & he can't box like Corley can

    McCloskeys gonna have the crowd & the judges with it being a matchroom show & Corleys struggled with awkward boxers in the past ie. Junior Witter, but I think he can win this fight

    Corley is more accurate than Prescott, if he hurts McCloskey then he may finish him. That said, Paul should Box smart and take a close but clear decision. I'm expecting an ugly fight, with more than one accidental headbut. McCloskey fights awkward as it is, and Corley is a southpaw to boot.

    "How would you guys call it? "

    A crying shame, thats what i'd call it. Corley looked shot to **** when he fought Witter in 2006

    The bookies have Corley at 7-1. Maybe worth a punt at that price, but still pretty unlikely. I'd personally have him about 5 to 1.

    :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Word up Ice, this is a **** fight and tells you all you need to know about Dudey that he has taken this fight instead of avenging his loss to Prescott who was ****ing jobbed!!!

    Cheated not defeated, get the **** out of here. He is a **** Froch style wannabe minus the jab. I hope to ****ing God that Hearn puts him in with someone like Holt thinking they are on the slide and he gets ktfo.
