Dodson v Smith - who wins this one?

[Chris W 1982]

I like Dilks and I certainly feels he has every right to be associated with title class.

He could certainly compete with Smith and Dodson but I doubt whether he could be successful against them.

Indeed fella.

Truly cant wait for this fight - Come on Dodson spring a surprise and shut a few people up!!!

[chiggsy]

I think carl dilks proved in that one fight against adamu that he is more than ready for the likes of dodson or smith.
I have watched smith for years and unfortunatley I have never once been impressed by anything he's done despite the high praise that has been heaped on him by various trainers.
To say carl isn't in his class is just pure bias nothing more nothing less.

how can the quigley fight be great ? all the action was in the croud the fighting! it was a bore fest that fight

[15829]

banks was a good win smith beat Quigley who kod dodson, although that doesn't mean he's guaranteed to beat dodson smith hits harder and is better boxer than Quigley so I think smiths stops dodson with bodyshots

what we need to hear is off quigley and ask who does he think will win hes been in with both so he got best veiw from all of us!
im sure he had to go hospital after dodson fight with concussion

[15829]

I've got a feeling Quigley will say dodson will win as there seems to be a lot more respect between the pair

[liamsmith88]

wat quigley says wont mean a thing, it will just be his opinion, like the rest, if he says dodson, then dodson wins, dont be stupid robo.

[liamsmith88]

The style of the fight isn't the point. Smith found a way to win against a tricky opponent.

I also rave about Dodson's performance against Quigley. Barring the last round, Dodson was electric

quigley can dig as hard as paul & both took each others best showing decent chins. if anything i expected paul to be on top but he wasnt he shy'd.
dodson's resistance is gone,just a size at the weight which dont count for much if the strength aint there.

dodson knows what hes got to do and looks in brilliant shape once again.

If comparing the Quigley fight is what road people want to go down, no problem...

Quigley beat Dodson with a weeks notice or whatever it was he had...yet couldnt beat Paul with 14 weeks notice.

The way the fights went...was Paul supposed to try and copy Dodson and bully Quigley, yet walk onto alkinds and be up and down like a yo-yo getting stopped and cut to pieces??? YEAH MAKES SENSE! Tony Quigley is a good boxer with a good boxing brain having had a successful amateur background etc, Paul knew this all along and used a gameplan, to box him early knowing he will tire late, then come on strong. Gameplan successful - New British Champion!!! Dodson....big, ripped to shreads, looked the part (beforehand)....worked hard, was exciting, gave his all.....went home with nothin except for a few pats on the back and a loads of stitches and scars, bumps and bruises!

This is a sport, tactics play a big part. Comparing both fights...weather one was better to watch or not, from the boxers point of view - I know which one I would rather be/do! 8)

exactly. well put across. Put into those terms, it makes a lot of sense, and to be fair, it don't matter if you win ugly, just win!
