    i think its pretty exciting, i know there both old and have seen better days its a pretty good for the domestic heavies if we can bring this level of guys here, these are the fights these guys have to win to take to the next level, if they get a bit of media exposure who knows it could help get them more fights / money in the next fight... sponsers etc... it surely can only be a good thing, none have been knocked out so if one manages that there should be some publicity
    fox picking this up?

    It's a step up for Solo, just wondering how he'll handle McCall...Hoppa, while not the fighter Solo is, wasn't able to impose any sort of strength over McCall.

    When i first heard that Tony and McCall were coming to Australia i was thinking how are they going to raise the coin to get them here?
    Then i heard Brian was the promoter which answered a lot of questions the guy is ****ing loaded!
    It would be interesting to know what sort of purse Toney and McCall will be getting?

    Surely two +40 over the hill guys would take $50k AUS plus expenses paid

    What fight will head line the card?

    Solo's been sitting on the pot and not shitting for years now - hopefully this step up (if he wins) means he'll get serious about fighting contenders instead of lowly-ranked opponents.
