    While Lynch had a fairly strong chin, Wilde's power for a guy so small was astonishing. I wouldn't be confident in saying Lynch lasts the distance. If he manages, he has a chance of winning on the cards, but I'd probably bet on Wilde.

    Feasible scenario ,but I would point out Lynch beat Peter Kane who was a big banger.

    a good thread to start would be about Scottish fighters. I can't think of too many.

    Then it would be a short thread.

    Why does scotland have so few fighters? Is it lack of public interest?

    I believe the Scot who had an iron chin, beautiful footwork, superb boxing skills and a knockout in his left hook would beat the Welshman who'd be given away a stone.

    Watching them both on film Lynch appears much the more modern fighter imo.
