    Two southpaws, both undefeated with an equal number of fights & have you seen where these guys are listed on boxrec? There is basically 3 places between them in the world rankings so surely this match deserves "50-50" billing??

    Stalker's amateur success must surely mean he starts as a slight favourite, but there are reasons why Matchroom dropped Stalker and that is more than likely due to the lack of excitement he brings to the ring.

    Catterall will be confident his superior punch power will get him through tonight, and I hope he is right cos Stalker bores me.

    Stalker was supposedly the number 1 amateur in the world but he's crap.

    Lol! He hasnt lived up to his amateur credentials has he?

    Still not sure if Catterall will beat him though, cos they chose Catterall instead of fighting the Rock n Rolla Chris Jenkins, so they must see Catterall as an easier opponent. Would have loved to see Jenkins v Stalker

    If Stalker shows his REAL potential he will will easily with his technical abilty and speed. If he turns up like he has recently though he might get KO'd.

    Should be a good fight with the winner being who ever wants it more in the later rounds.

    I'm a fan of these cross roads fights pitting 2 unbeatens after after 10 or so fights and seeing which one has what it takes to go further.

    What a fight! Just shows the difference between amateur & pros.

    Full credit to Catterall. Still plenty of room for improvement, but already good enough to beat a respected amateur

    Stalker is 30 years old, got beat rather easily tonight and I do not see where he goes from here.

    I do not like writing fighters off but anything other than British title level can be written off for Stalker in my opinion.
