WBC Silver belt Who do you got? I watched their first fight, and it is the only bit that I have seen from either fighter. I t looks like the classic boxer vs brawler match up. I am also in the majority that thinks Dan got robbed. I will be attending this fight tomorrow, and want to hear if anyone has something interesting to look for, or hear any chatter about the fight! Dan looks to be a top class fighter to me.
Either Aydin finishes the job this time or he wins another disputed decision. I'm secretly rooting for Jo Jo though! (or against Öner actually!)
He did but Dan's going to need to dominate the fight(knockdown?) to win a decision in Turkey. Also, I don't think Aydin has looked all that good since beating Bonsu two years ago. If the fight was anywhere but in Turkey, I'd pick Dan.
Yea Oner can go **** himself I agree. I am pretty excited because the crowd seemed to be fairly rowdy at the last fight and it is at the same arena in Trabzon. Just me and a Kiwi girl who has never been to a fight, and neither of us speak a lick of the language. Should be interesting.
Don't know much about Aydin, but I've been following Dan since he's got like 10 pro fights. He's a pretty good boxer, can be a little sloppy at times but he reminds me of a mini version of Lucian Bute. About the fight, it's hard to predict.. Of course, Dan should dominate again, but if he was robbed in Istambul, don't think there will be fair judging in Trabzon (Aydin's hometown). Dan not being a great puncher, it will probably go the distance. Another robbery to come this saturday! P.S. The first Aydin fight was Dan's fight fight at 147. He is now a full welter, maybe will he be able to stop Aydin this time?
The first fight was sensational. Dan came up in weight and boxed brilliantly. I was very impressed with Dan and gutted for him that he didnt get a decision that seemed very deserved in my opinion. Looking forward to this one. Credit must go to Aydin also for giving Dan the deserved rematch. Im rooting for Dan as I like his boxing style
In fact, he was forced by the WBC. But it was kinda weird the way it happenned.. It was like : WBC : We looked like crap because of the first fight my friend. That's why we have no choice but to order a rematch. Ahmet Ohner : Uhm, alright, but could you at least work out something to make sure we still have an advantage? WBC : I guess so. How about ordering a 65-35% purse for the champion, if it goes to purse bid? Ohner : Yeah but what if they don't accept our offer (fighting in Trabzon even after the robbery in Istambul) and we have to go to purse bid? There could be a slight chance that the fight end up outside of Turkey, we're screwed! WBC : I already thought about that. That's why I included this clause "If the negociations are done before the purse bid, we're offering 5% more for Dan's purse, to make sure they accept your offer. 60-40, he won't refuse that! Ohner : That's alright with me! atsch
