The difference between World and European level, despite the Martinez loss.
He was wobbling everytime time he got hit as was the ex champion and it now turns out the x champion struggled to make the weight and was weight drained and just to throw more controversey into this Dunne was behind on all official scorecards, I actually had Dunne 2 rounds down going into the 11th. I must say that I was very impressed with his heart and determination which was the key factor. Unless Dunne is matched very carefully he will not reign for long and even in boxing the best laid plans and carefull matching does not work out. Points in case Khan v Prescott, Napa on Friday night.
As for the post suggesting a shift of power from Munroe to Dunne that is laughable, I have chosen a path for Munroe and I also now believe we are still in the driving seat and Munroe's route is mapped out.
Also Dunne needs Munroe more than Munroe needs Dunne.
The Munroe v Dunne fight makes the most sense and will draw the biggest crowd but it is still a long way off.
It is up to Ireland's to Don King if he wants to make the fight. That is the only ace he does hold but I stick to my statement Munroe does not need Dunne.
Well done Mr Peters and Mr Dunne I congratulate on a gamle that paid off.http://forum.boxrec.com/posting.php?mod ... &p=1693580#
Sounds to me like you don't want to take the risk of the fight, afterall Rendall can make plenty of money defending his European title till he's ready for retirement.
Dunne was way down on the scorecards yes, I personally had him one down(having watched the fight back), and it turns out the ko was needed and he got the job done.
I'd like to see Dunne v Munroe happen but I don't think Peters should go out of his way to do it.
If you're confident your man will win then you'll make the match and make it before Dunne's 'short reign' is over.
