Re: Chris Keane Vs Steve Simmon Big Cruiserweight Battle
I'm really looking forward to this one.

Love these types of fights with 2 raw undefeated prospects, there has been a severe lack of these type of fights for ages for obvious reasons. Not clued up on Chris Keane at all but liked the performance of Simmons in is fight against Rasani, did well to step it up and get the stoppage.
Be nice to see a list of the fights where 2 undefeated prospects both with under 10 fights squared off in the last 5 years or so. Chisora v Sexton I was a little classic.

Yh it's gonna be a small hall classic we feel, both lads are well up for it, both got great credentials and titles has amateurs, both can box, and punch. It's a shame it's not a top of the bill on sky to be fair, I think it deserves a lot more publicity than it's getting as well, gonna be a great fight, there styles should gel brilliantly. Really looking forward to a good fair 50/50 fight for once for the paying public

Re: Chris Keane Vs Steve Simmon Big Cruiserweight Battle
Stephen acheived 5 mutli nation golds,4 Silver and a Bronze in the Commonwealth games hes by far the better boxer between the two and punches every bit has hard and we'll see if Chris can do 10 hard rounds one after another,yes it will be a good fight between the two.Boxingcutsman wrote:Yh it's gonna be a small hall classic we feel, both lads are well up for it, both got great credentials and titles has amateurs, both can box, and punch.

You said you have more plans to beat Stephen than the local council,we have one turn up and do a number on your man
Re: Chris Keane Vs Steve Simmon Big Cruiserweight Battle
This looks like a good fight on paper, I know Chris Keane and he is very explosive and has a very good jab, don't know a lot about Simmon, but both have very good amateur backgrounds, should be a good fight.billy nelson wrote:Stephen acheived 5 mutli nation golds,4 Silver and a Bronze in the Commonwealth games hes by far the better boxer between the two and punches every bit has hard and we'll see if Chris can do 10 hard rounds one after another,yes it will be a good fight between the two.Boxingcutsman wrote:Yh it's gonna be a small hall classic we feel, both lads are well up for it, both got great credentials and titles has amateurs, both can box, and punch.

Re: Chris Keane Vs Steve Simmon Big Cruiserweight Battle
I've been very disappointed with what I've seen of Keane as a pro. Doesn't appear to be fit, carry any kind of pop and seems lazy and over reliant on his jab.

John Lewis Dickinson beats them both handily
Re: Chris Keane Vs Steve Simmon Big Cruiserweight Battle
Hope Simmons pulls it off. Fair play to both for taking the fight

You will need a KO then to get a win
Re: Chris Keane Vs Steve Simmon Big Cruiserweight Battle
I've worked with both, Simmo deffo has the better pedigree. I like both guys but I expect Simmo to come through if I'm being honest, Chris is a good honest pro but it's levels for me and the best 3 cruisers in the country are Dickinson,Price and Simmo! It'll end up a fantastic mix the cruiser division.. I'll end up there one day without doubt
Ps them 3 names I've mentioned I know em all and there all talented and good hard working lads too! Credits to the sport

Yh Chris is from Walsall Not Wolverhampton. Yes Billy Chris will be able to do 10 hard rounds mate, he was doing 10 - 12 rounds quite comfortably 2 weeks ago with Enzo Maccranelli so come fight night I'm sure he will be ready

With regards to Ben Carey, Chris is a counter puncher who doesn't throw a lot of punches, but the punches he does throw are meaningful, hurtful and accurate, he doesn't waste nothing. But everyone is entitled to there opinions mate, I hope your there 22nd to watch a good fair fight between 2 good, hard working, honest pro's who both deserve a lot of credit for taking a tough fight so early in there careers unlike some of the fighters with padded records most of you rave on about.

is this the same Jon-Lewis Dickinson who couldn't get out of the way of the predictable, messaged over hand rights from Tyrone Wright in Sunderland ? Eye closed by the the end of the 2nd round, beat up and pulled out the fight ? Dickinson is a good fighter and one of the best in the division, but he wouldn't win ( in your words ) Handily.
Since then he's beaten a solid top 10er in David Dolan, Chris Burton (1 defeat in 16 at heavy) and Matty Askin. Thats good form which no-one can argue with. Yes he was caught by right hands in the Wright fight, however he was dominating the fight and anyone can get stopped on injury.
I'm not saying he's perfect not by a long chalk but until someone proves otherwise he is the best Cruiserweight in the country by a distance and I dont think if we look at results that anyone can argue with that.
