    It's a tough one, I was really impressed with Clarke against Mitchell Balker last year he was very sharp.

    Camacho has power, bit of skill albeit not as refined as he should be. Can be wild at times and had those moments exposed somewhat against Miles. But it was a gutcheck and one where he came through and showed some real heart. Although the stoppage was out of nowhere and wasn't exactly Wadi on top. He broke Miles heart and outlasted him really...

    Clarke could well box his way to a decision, But i like Camacho he does have ability and power. It's a pick em'.

    Clarke showed up in what looked to be running gear at weigh in. Could he be struggling with weight?. Could be just doing the norm. Seems really relaxed and bubbling with enthusiasm, Wadi seemed more reserved and quiet. Odd...

    Good fight, Don't be shocked if we see a good fight that is a early contender for FOTY domestically and a stoppage. I can't pick though, I only seen Wadi once and China once and both impressed me in different situations.

    Clarke would be a favorite though i'd say..

    Yeah, Ive gone for Clarke on points based on him being able to exploit Camacho being a bit gung ho & in love with his power.

    Its hard to make much of a prediction when Ive seen so little of either guy but hopefully it'll be a good fight, whoever wins this will be close to a British title fight with Dickinson.

    I saw Hearn the other day saying Camacho was fighting Matty Askin on the Brian Rose undercard, they might've overlooked Clarke who is decent but unheralded.

    Camacho will either knock you out or get knocked out. I fancy a Clarke stoppage.

    Yeah i thought that myself, Very strange decision..

    Agreed he's got to change his style/mentality it's like Bellew of old. Just fancies the KO far to much. Let it come lad!.

    :lol: Yeah. He spends a lot of the evening worrying about his mum and sisters wearing bands with yeah buddy on it rather then chilling in dressing room. Think he needs to worry about the action in the ring tonight. Tough fight this..

    This was literally like a tear up outside a club.

    everything just clashed and was very very messy, to be fair to Clark he looked at times like trying to boxing but camacho just kept wading in throwing big swings.

    Clark got the job done in the end

    Yeah saw two rounds and had to leave as it was late and wanted to get back south of border. Yep was messy, Camacho throwing bombs that were telegraphed and Clarke looked a tad nervy but also showed the better fundamentals and movement.

    Camacho was there at 5pm tonight, fought at 11pm. These boys got there chance live and i'm happy for them just feel for them cos they wait so long and must be drained by that time. A experience for them nonetheless..
