    Medley was a good amateur & is a solid prospect that is now raising his level & targeting a top 10-20 position at Welterweight.
    Too bad for him welterweight is the strongest division in boxing & getting inside the top 10 is going to involve beating some quality opponents.

    Its going to be a hard fight for Robbie, his size and hometown advantage are things he definitely needs to win this fight.

    Hlashwayo has tons more experience and is more skilled than Robbie, its going to be a hard fight for him.

    So am i.:deal
    Medley all the way. He is the bigger man & has the home ground advantage.
    Should come through this one. His ranking should he win would improve greatly in the big 4 sanctioning bodies.:good

    Wont be easy tho, i can see him having a scare or 2.

    Yeah, im not sure on his chin, seen him buzzed a few times now.

    I hope hope the other guys doesnt run too much, but that would be a game plan id go with if i was him.

    If i was robbie, id smash him with straight lefts and rights all night!!!

    Isaac aint a big puncher, so Medley's chin should be quite ok for this match.
    Isaac tho can be quite slick at a times IMO, so as long as Medley trains for that then all should be good.:thumbsup

    With his sparring againts Lovemore, i hope Lovemore is sticking a moving and making Robbie chase him, because if Lovemore spars like he fights that wont help Robbie IMO.
