    Hamilton talks a good fight and is coming off a decent win against John Watson but I don't think he'll be much trouble for Theophane at all.

    Sensible. No prizes for being a 'hero' IMO, you've got a tough enough fight of your own to worry about. Good things come to those who wait and all.

    Hamilton's got a awkward style and is in gym all the time so he won't struggle for fitness although i dunno how much the Watson would of taken out of him?. Don't know if it was a grueling battle etc.

    hamilton is awkward and very, very fit. can keep a right pace up for 12 rounds.

    i sparred with im a while ago and he is hitting a lot harder than he was 9 months ago. sitting down his punches a lot more. he now hits spitefully.

    HOPE HE CAN DO IT!

    WAR AMMO!!!!

    I doubt Theopane will fight Hamilton - apparently he's 'been offered an IBF world title eliminator against Josesito Lopez for June 22nd'.

    Edit: I wonder what's happened to Kendall Holt then?

    Has Hamilton been in training for an upcoming fight?

    Hamilton is always in the gym, and had a decent win a few week's ago

    Undercard for this has really fallen apart. Hamilton's a good replacement for Williams but Dallas vs Little is off, Robinson vs Donnelly is off, Anwar's fight is a lot less interesting and Dillian Whyte's opponent has also pulled out.

    It seems ironic that at a time when the BBBofC are preaching probity and ethics to anyone who will listen they sanction a **** fight like this for a Lonsdale belt, its ****ing ridiculous

    Sorry but from what I have seen Hamilton is shocking. Terrible boxer. Adil is the much better package.
