I suppose if you're going to keep working whilst you're a pro fighter, a job that entails running a few miles a day, which also incorporates lifting/pushing/pulling fairly weighty objects is probably the one to have. If you're going to do roadwork anyway, you might as well get paid for it.
And I agree with Bigears, it's not hurting his public appeal any.
Who next for Rendall Munroe ?
Re: Who next for Rendall Munroe ?
Cordoba is a class boxer for sure. He has a style similar to Dunne's, very technically sound boxer and while not having real knockout power he definately has a dig to his punches.Old bones Ian wrote:I've not seen anything of Cordoba, is he that good?
Of course the win over Caballero stands out, but that was 5 years ago, and Caballero is much improved now, since then Cordoba hasn't really beaten any stand out boxer. Everytime he's come out of Panama he's not won.
Were the draws in Germany fair results?
I would say Dunne's technical ability is on a par or maybe even a little better than Cordoba, but Dunne's stamina probaby will not allow him to win this one, although stranger things have happened.
I think however that Munroe would find it harder against Cordoba if he were to fight him as apart from being in great shape and having good stamina and nice body punches, I don't see that much boxing ability from Munroe in his last few fights that would lead me to believe that he could out box Cordoba. Munroe does not have much of a dig either so he wouldn't ko Cordoba.
If my money was on either Dunne or Munroe to beat Cordoba, I would go with Dunne as he could possible win on points if he paced it correctly, but in reality I think both would probably fall short against him for different reasons.
Does anyone know whether Munroe is staying at super bantamweight anyway, I hear he had trouble making weight in his last few fights?

Re: Who next for Rendall Munroe ?
Dunne has world class technical ability there is no denying that, he may be lacking in power and stamina maybe but he definately does stand a chance.What are these struggles you speak of?clubberlang wrote:Dunne doesn’t stand a chance; he hasn’t fought anyone half as good as Cordoba and yet he’s had more then his fair share of struggles. As for Monroe I would make a few more defences of the European championship and then try my luck on the world stage.
If you think Munroe stands a chance on the world stage and Dunne does not then you must not have seen a lot of Dunne's fights or Munroes first two defenses of his belt!
