Lovell is a good shout, and Doran ought to be looking at a British title shot after another 1/2 fights...he's 10-0 now

Doran will get exposed if he goes any higher I feel. Extremely fortunate against Maxwell.Captain Hook wrote:Lovell is a good shout, and Doran ought to be looking at a British title shot after another 1/2 fights...he's 10-0 now

Yes he was lucky, can't carry on fighting in that way... will get stopped.
He can box and has a good jab, but gets drawn into a fight, especially when on home turf as he seems so desperate to impress his pals.

Agreed Chris. He needs quite a few more fights before being ready for a British title fight. A fight with Bradley Pryce would sell well anywhere in Wales.Chris W 1982 wrote:Doran will get exposed if he goes any higher I feel.

I was also there mate, covered it for Boxing News.
Selkirk and Hall would rip right through Doran. His jab will only get him so far in fights as I feel he doesn't have the necessary power to keep those hovering around the top 10 at bay for championship distances.

I was at ryders last fight. Massively impressed. Also look out for Ryan tayler, still finding he's feet in the pros, mark my words. He's a great little fighter.

I'd like to see the winner of that get a fight with Selby, I'd rather that than see a rematch with Smith.maley1984 wrote:Tommy Gunn13 wrote:Ive never seen him fight,be interesting to see what hes like on the 4th after all your hype..Is he still boxing Murray?maley1984 wrote:featherweight chris male 11(2)-0 gunna burst on the scene 4th feb in bolton english title fight on sky

Re: Prospects to look out for in 2012
Erick Ochieng had 9 fights. I thing he could be fighting for the British title by july 2012. Looking really good

Great shout Ryan Taylor will deffo be in some great fights as he develops, as will Ryder! Both got great come forward styles that the crowd will love .johnnygreaves wrote:I was at ryders last fight.

Re: Prospects to look out for in 2012
Got good skils but was exposed badly by Luke Robinson on the Ochieng's home show and Robinson is a bit one dimentional. Ochieng he was totaly bullied and out worked by Robinson, seem to crumble a bit, with pressure. Ochieng is fighting in an eliminator for the English title in a few weeks, touch and go if he gets through that, long way to go yet in a hot division, but he has a big promoter so a shot at the British could happen in the future, but it would suprise me if it happened so soon.mcato wrote:Erick Ochieng had 9 fights.

Re: Prospects to look out for in 2012
I agree, I think he is well overated and well looked after, far too open and his chin seems at bit dodgy, needs another 2 years yet, hot division.Chris W 1982 wrote:Doran will get exposed if he goes any higher I feel.
