i agree with the Hunter Booth but I think it will be a bit scrappy, which is unusual for a 2 smooth booth fight, mainly because I think Hunter will be a bit rusty and will overcome Booth through strength and determination eventually.

As for the question......It's Brook Jennings for me by a mile.

I'm not overly excited by Rhodes Moore.....i think it will be close but I think Rhodes has been around for a long time now, if he were to win, I think he'd quickly come unstuck at the next level.

I plan to be in attendance for the Brook Jennings fight.....I'm a bit nervous tbh about being surrounded by that many scousers...is it a safe place to go for an outsider....can I expect to find myself in a fight with 6 thugs on the way back to my hotel if I talk differently etc etc.. I hope not cos I fancy this.

Yep, I went for Froch vd Direll just because of the stature of the fight and the fact both are at or near their peak, whereas while I love both Rhodes and Moore, I think Rhodes is past his best and even if he won (which isn't an impossibility), he won't be going on to world honours.

Froch vs Dirrell. I get much more excited about World level boxing than domestic level boxing. This fight is intriguing and I'm very interested to see Dirrell's game plan, because he can't afford to stand and trade with Froch. I think he's going to try to use his footwork to get in, throw a combination, get out. He'll probably have some success with it, like Taylor did, but can he keep it all together for 12 rounds?

Hagler2002 vs Poodlepoo would be good to see, if it happens. Arm wrestle and chicken dinner for the winner.

I'm interesting in almost all of the fights. At least one of them is bound to be excellent.

Probably Sexton-Rogan just ahead of Froch-Dirrell, going to both but I have a feeling the Belfast match will be a war with an unbelievable atmosphere.

Showtime in the US. Emerson doesn't have it listed (yet) in the TV Schedule topic: http://forum.boxrec.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=83377

I was reading a couple of week old BN today and Sexton's lot are saying he'll win it this time....."even more easily than he won it the first time"..........

I must have been wrong then, I thought he was rocked wobbled and gone, then Rogan got chucked out on a dubiously timed cut.

Hey, what do I know........ :roll:

Bring on the Belter at Welter :box:

Has to be Froch Vs Dirrell, but I'm also looking forward to seeing how Brook copes with Jennings and Smith Vs Quigley... Plenty to choose from though, which is never a bad thing.
