    Um.....anybody who thought mollo would even go the distance
    DKSAB, so no offense but you're pick of szpilka by KO isn't anything
    to brag about. I think that a szpilka/wilder fight would be very interesting.
    The way the pole turns would keep wilder from lining up that 1-2. There's
    no way a compact left from 'the pin' doesn't starch wilder and vice
    versa on a right from wilder to szpilka.

    Szpilka is an active fighter who comes to fight and has picked very respectable opponents to fight with in his early career. Plus he's entertaining, aggressive, has one punch KO power, and tries to learn and be patient in each fight. Sure there are holes in his armour, but we're seeing them because Szpilka is picking decent, experienced opponents in this early stage of his career, unlike most heavies who fight unknown tomato cans that they can dominate, throughout their first 20-25 fights. Though Szpilka's rep may take a few hits due to these knockdowns, I think this is likely outweighed by the accelerated learning that these fights provide for him. I think Szpilka might surprise a few people here by the time he has 22-25 fights.

    Cheers mate but you never know in this sport.
    Wouldn't be surprised whatever Terry O' Connor does...if this one comes through then I've won I reckon.

    That's the only wild card, but i think clev gets runover. So
    it won't matter.

    Hope we are right!
    If Terry messes it up then I will be livid.
    Need a great fight whatever the outcome and nobody can stand the ref ruining it.

    99% of my picks are spot on.in the fullness of time that will be seen.anyhow i do agree with you about wilder vs szpilka...i to believe that would be an interesting fight.i think we would see some of what wilders really got.he would have to show more of his arsonal because like you said i don't think wilder would be able to unload at will with his right hand...at least for a couple rounds anyway.i would love to see it

    but wilder would win of course

    Way I see it Mollo and Spilzka are now 1 and 1. But very very good on Spilzka to give Mollo this rematch and to get a clear and clean win out of it.

    Given these fighters history, how much attention these fights attracted and how well they were attended a rubber match could sell, would make some sense and who wouldn't watch it? For a fighter to have a rubber match this early in his career against an opponent that he has two wins on the books against would however be something way out of the ordinary.

    great fight some times 2 gys are just right for each other. Mollo only person to put Szpilka down in his career. Szpilka could be a good fighter at Hw if he can work on a few things.
