Bonsu vs. Platnikov & McIntyre vs. Brook
Hey you guys I don't really know these fighters very much, so I wanted to get some input on who you guys think will win these fights and maybe a little background on their styles. thanks.
i'm going to antwerp to watch the fight of bonsu tonight. 
he's a very wel conditioned athlete (guess only 3% of fat or something) and heavyhanded. although his technique is improving he's still a bit sluggish aspecially in the later rounds, but he's got a tremendous desire to win. he is also named european fighter of the year
tonight he's def going for the KO. i've read on a belgian newssite that the second biggest american promotor would be attending this fight and if bonsu wins, he's prob going to fight a top 10 ranked south-african or mexican.
bur sugar jackson still got a (long) way to go ( specially his technique and defense), but like i said he's improving day by day because now he trains like a full-time pro and he got a sponsor deal were he gets better sparring( he sparred with kell brooks instead of sparring bums). also he's trainer recently has given up his job to focus full time on training sugar jackson. maybe you will think its obious, but in belgium its not. thanks to bonsu now there's in belgian a mini boxing-hype in the run. but just a year ago sugar jackson did still a part time job for the living, because in belgium you can't live from boxing (unless you're name is sugar jackson since a couple of months :P )
so i'm def rootin for sugar, and hopefully he gets a title-shot within 2 years if he keeps beating his opponents
