Who Is The Best Superbantam in Europe?

Dunne is the best SBW on the EBU scene.

Monshypour (or however the **** you spell it) is the best European SBW (boxes as French, I know hes from Iran or wherever). He may be older and all that but he is the only one who has been up at genuine world class so far. and while he didn't set the world alight (a la Vasquez/Juanma etc..) he was a good solid champion and certainly didn't disgrace himself when he lost.

I'm not sold on Marsh. I doubt Maladrottu will be up to much at SBW. Hunter doesn't count since we have no idea if his comeback will be at SBW long term. Or if it will even end up being a proper comeback.

As far as the current EBU champion goes I expect Munroe to beat Martinez again (and I hope he does).

Totally biased I know but... I think Dunne has a world class skill set. He just hasn't got probhibitive puncher power that stops people coming forward. Because of that he wouldn't be able to avoid getting a bang on his whiskers which is shaky at best when tested. I do think he is genuinely a better boxer at SBW than anyone campaigning in Europe at the minute.

***Any other Irish lads who come on mentioning Paul Hyland do yourselves a favour and give it a rest in advance. He's been in with 1 (ish) live fighter and lost that matchup. He looks great when he's fighting an endless list of duds set up by his da but he's nowhere near the real deal. He's not even close to being the best boxer in his family!

 

Munroe would beat Dunne. IMO

 

dunne beats munroe, he is a better boxer and munroe doesnt have the power to beat dunne

 

Bernard dunne by a mile... The division is empty as demonstrated by rendalls shocking opposition last year

 

Munroe didn't have GREAT opposition, but he beat the man who beat the man and seems eager to fight Dunne anywhere. The same cannot be said for Bernard.

 

I would say Munroe by default.

He beat the man who beat the man - OK his opposition hasn't been up to much since then, but neither has Dunne's.....

Match the two together and find out - unless people think Dunne has to beat Martinez to earn his shot?

Don't forget Munroe isn't that experienced, bypassing British level to go straight to the EBU title.

I think he would beat Marsh though, quite handily.

 

Not even the best in Britain?! :rofl Matthew Marsh?! The guy is crap. He can't box that well, he gets hit and dragged into wars, and he does not have the power to brawl. He struggled with a shot Esham Pickering...jesus.

Bernard Dunne is Irish. It's anything but clear cut when Munroe beat Martinez fairly over 12 rounds, and Bernard Dunne got starched inside 2 minutes by the same opponent.

 

By a fair bit more than the cards suggested as well, I'd say.

 

Munroe by far and when he schools Martinez you will know why

 

I'd say your being a bit harsh on Marsh there. He's only twelve fights into a pro career. I agree Munroe is a fair way ahead of him but that's no slight on Marsh. Also think he's great to watch!

As for the best Euro SBW, havent really seen all the top names in action so going on what I have seen I'd have to go Munroe.

 

Marsh is not going anywhere I assure you of that. He is extremely lucky to be in one of the worst divisions domestically.

 

Munroe has had ****ing terrible opposition since winning the title! And he's made a meal of them.

(Bouiatia - Awful, Martyrosian - Awful, Trotta - might as well have been me in there, total bum)

Since losing to Martinez, Dunne has fought.

(Machado - past his peak Former world champion, Marchiano - Journeyman but sturdy(ish), Faccio - World Title Challenger (in his pervious fight)

I get that people see Munroe as the man that beat the man. Thats a fair call and at least i see an angle for that argument. However, impyling Dunne is not keen on fighting Munroe is complete bull****.

Its Maloney and Peters who are talking **** and waging a phony war. I think its fairly common knowledge that Dunne and Munroe would fight each other no problem. They both respect each other (although I have heard some **** Munroe said about Dunne since the Trotta fight that makes me think Rendall may be getting a big head and a bad attitude, BUT I hope its not true.

Dunne PTS Munroe 116-112 in my opinion

 

He's no world beater. But I think he is a good domestic boxer.

And also, as stated previously, good to watch. I dont mind as much if it's entertaining!

 

Having seen lots of both fighters Dunne is superior IMO. Munroe is very good, don't get me wrong and a fight between them is no forgone conclusion however munroes strengths are his size and classy punching, he's like a mini hagler, this would be offset by Dunnes clever movement and own handspeed.. Dunne is bordering on world class. The loss was a shocker but IMO he is the better of the two despite the shock loss. Dunne would have turned Martinez over if he'd not been nailed.
