Tough fight this for Napa and fast approaching (next Friday)
Despite being Euro Champ Ballone seems a bit of a secret, cannot find anyone who has seen him.
Its always dangerous to compere results but Ballone lost a split against Maludrottu for the euro belt in Sardinia, now to even get to a split in Maludrottu's home town, almost certainly means he won the fight.
Compare that to Napa's brave but clearly losing Euro shot against Maludrottu's with homefield advantage and you assume Ballone may have the edge, although I am hearing that Napa has seen some tapes and fancies he is too slick for Ballone.
Anyone seem the guy or have any opinions, would love to see Ian do this, been a decent servant and some money late in his career would be a great bonus for him.
