Saw Enzo today

Another KO, especially at the hands of a last minute 37-year old substitute would finish Macca mentally, I think.

 

Coats off outside the arena would be a start :hey

 

Yep, thats why it would be really dangerous to take - and as a result intriguing for us.

Don't look too much into the decisions. It's more the fact he's slower and is winging his shots a lot more so they are easier to defend, and also his opponents are almost exclusively in survival mode. He would still be dangerous for a guy like Macca that is trying to win, one mistake and it could be lights out again.

 

Then let's bring it on. My question then would be: If Herbie's such a good fight for Macca, why did Macca never fight him before, when he was fighting very questionable opposition before Haye? It seems the British fans are very up for this fight...so why wasn't it made before?:huh

 

There's been some legal disputes between Herbie and Frank Warren plus Herbie was effectively 'on the run' and there were some police charges against him before he went to Germany. It seems all of that has been solved as Herbie has fought in the UK recently.

 

I think Herbie the crazy mofo has only just been allowed back into the UK for his misdemeanors in the past?! Hence he was fighting out in Germany against cans. I could be wrong.

Hide only came down to cruiser in 2006 too.

 

He had a few parking tickets he needed to clear I think.

 

seeing as business seems to be the driving factor in these match ups...i would say that a wbo champ enzo vs wbc champ hide...if they both become champions...could be a much much bigger fight financially than if it were to happen now..so i suppose, or guess, that the business heads in both camps may be thinking about that, and wont let them fight just yet

 

Hide taking the fight at a weeks notice and knocking Enzo out wouldn't look too good for Enzo.

 

can't see them putting hide in with him,maybe to risky,even if hide is past his best he has prob got more ring craft than enzo for the 1st few rounds

 

hide would sell tickets and ppv.

 

hide would make it intresting for 4 rounds.

 

Saw Hide's last fight on the Thaxton undercard and he was slow and stiff. Think Enzo would KO him.

 

Problem is, Hide offers bigger risk than reward.

He's more of a recognisable name of course but the casual audience will last remember him for getting clocked by Vitali in '99 or Chingangu on the Beeb in '03 (I think).

So if Enzo clobbers him, very little credit. While if Herbie can wing in one of those shots...

 

Depends if Hide would allow it to remain a title match. Hide is ranked four with the WBO.
