    Both young good talents in the same weight class, both 14-0 at the moment,, both with Warren.

    Who do you think would win if they fought / who will go the furthest?

    I think Bowen would win as he has the clear edge in power. That said, I prefer Archie Sharp and the fight against Woodstock was a barnstormer.

    There both good kids, but I think Bowen has the higher ceiling because of his power.

    One things for sure, if Warren plays his cards properly he can put on some cracking fights in Leicester with Bowen against Sharpe, Woodstock, Zelpha Barrett etc.

    I think Sharp is the better boxer but Bowen would break him down with his power and will go further. Hard to beat at British level,

    I would like to see Woodstock v Mccorry and Bowen v Sharp on a big Warren event

    Bowen’s a good lad but ships far too many shots. Power will only take him so far. Sharp’s a good un too, i think he can go a step further.

    It's a funny pick em this one because out of the two I reckon Sharp could go further but bowen is a serious force and atm I think he would break Sharp up.
    If Sharp could add a little more power to his punching I think he beats Sam.

    After listening to Frank Warren's interview the other day, it sounds like he wants to make Bowen vs Woodstock next, both being from Leicester etc. But Bowen vs Sharp should be the fight they are looking at, who cares if Woodstock is from the same town, Sharp obviously deserves a shot at the British before Woodstock since he beat him, if Woodstock gets a shot before Sharp then that's just downright unfair.
