O'Connell must be knocking on a bit now. He has been around for years. I would guess he is nearer 40 than 30

I remember seeing Tony Bellew knocking out O'Connell with one of the hardest punches I have ever seen at Crystal Palace once.

Bellew really banged some decent kids out. John Lewis Dickinson was out cold

he lost in last years pre 1/4s of the a.b.a after being counted out by a low blow against tom dallas who got disqualified for it but because he was counted out mick couldnt progress either. dallas is a stablemate(i think) of larrys so they must have something there to be confident. mick turned 34 a month or so later so couldnt box am anymore he told me he wasnt gonna turn pro but i suppose he must be missing the game really good boxer on his day and i could see him schooling larry. but on the other hand larry might just be too big for him good match up though frank

Cheers for that big boy.

Looking at Larry's body I reckon anybody who takes him late could possibly stop him

Saw Kevin Evans beat him bout 8 years ago, he looked decent to me, much more of a boxer than a fighter, Kev outhustled him in the end, was too strong for him, this was at heavy not super heavy though, Larry should be a lot bigger.
Doubt FM would match them if it was too risky

Who is promoting O' Connell? Bold debut for him, of course. If he look good he might face Tyson Fury at some point too.

As Larry posts on here as 'Warmachine'...I hope he wins in style!

i would give him better fight than first two outings i knew i would get ripped apart with the Bruno comparision and was more refering to his cut shape rather than his size and techinic.

I think he would be ok with the size he has , plus he works with Scrap ( old school and posts on here) from time to time and Terry Dunstan so decent set of people to have around.

Time will tell, but be good to see him get in the mix.

Hope that the failed brain scan isn't anything too serious for O'Connell, but i'd guess thats the end of his boxing career. Shows that the BBBoC have those scans in place for these situations.

Warmachine, good luck tonight, don't lose focus

warmachine · Post by **warmachine** » 20 Mar 2009, 07:31

thanks old bones. don't know much about my opponent but I am fully focused on the fight.

Well, you ain't new school!

I heard the 'Chopping of wood and pulling tyres' was your invention - you are old school!

Plus, I have seen the pics with Mancini etc.. You are old school!

looking forward to seeing the Warmachine tonight, I hear good stuff about Larry and he's made a good start to his pro career.

I think it would have been a really good fight against O'Connell who as already mentioned had a really good amateur record, I would have expected him to give Larry some real problems.

Who is this guy he's fighting tonight?
