Despite have a few years off and not ever really reaching the heights it seemed he was once destined for, yes, it is signifcant that he has decided to make his comeback in Australia. He will still be one of the best 'imports' to have fought here and it is great for the Aussie fans to get the chance to see him give Wills a boxing lesson. Hopefully the Aussie boys can learn something from the whole experience.

I can't place Gainer, but his record suggests he might be a bit much for Wills, I hope i'm wrong.

He was good when he was fighting, a WBA Featherweight Champion. He knocked Chris John down in an attempt to regain the title. Remains to see how good he is after a two year layoff and moving up to lightweight.

Gainer was a top Featherweight in his prime. After 2 years out its yet to be seen what sort of shape he will be in. If he is any sort of decent shape Wills will be in for a very hard night. If age has got the better of him Wills may be able to get a win.

I will predict Gainer might just shade it with his experience for a points decision.
