Likelyhood of an upset on saturday ?

Post by damianhucker1 »

Whats the chances of Daniel Cadman upsetting Robin Reid when they clash on the Frampton Undercard this weekend ?

I dont recall ever seeing Cadman Box but on paper he shouldnt be good enough for Reid despite the Grim Reaper looking well past his best .

Does anyone see Cadman Winning ? hes on the left hand side of the bill so imagine they must feel he can win this .

Don't think it'd be too much of an upset these days to be honest. I'd go 50/50....

I wouldn't describe it as an upset if he wins.
Don't quite understand why Robin is carrrying on to be honest.

I know what you mean - presume he could use the cash?

Reid is 1/2 and Cadman 6/4

Ive only seen Cadman briefly in PF but his record aint that impressive.

Apparently Reid was poor against Ambler and Webbs style was probably all wrong for him with the ringrust. Not seen the win against Wayne Reed, can anyone enlighten.

In an 8 round fight where he has a chance to adapt early surely Reid has not regressed so much?

In answers to why hes doing it I dont know but he does seem to have a genuine like for boxing and he was ringside at a white collar show I went to recently.

He beat Reed pretty much as he wanted after starting slowly.

I agree though he should hang his gloves up.

Cadman put up a decent fight on Prizefighter, he'll be too lively for Reid I think.

I see Reid won by KO. There are couple of interviews with Reid from IFilm, on YouTube. One after the weigh-in and one after the fight.

In the interview after the weigh-in Reid seriously claims to be a 3-time world champion: IBO, WBF and WBC. I wish fighters wouldn't do that. Anyway, in the post fight interview he sounds confident that a fight against Groves will come off this year. He seems pretty upbeat about his chances. I hope he gets a couple of decent paydays before heading into retirement but I think most of you will agree that his chances of beating anybody worthwhile are pretty slim. Whatever happens, he has a very good career to look back on. Olympic medal, taking the WBC title from the champ in Italy, a few defences, and running Ottke and Calzaghe dangeroulsy close in fights which many believe he won.

Its a bit of a shame to see Reid who I idolised as a kid fighting in 4 and 6 rounders not even shown on TV.

Then again he's building back upto something, better than just going straight into a big title shot i.e Nicky Cook for instance last year.

Anyone know how he looked lastnight?

They showed it from round five last night, it looked a scrappy affair from what I saw but Reid looked fresher than Cadman who looked knackered until Reid absoloutely scrambled his senses with a right hook to the temple. legs did a crazy dance an the ref stopped it perfectly.
