Flanagan v.s Jones

[Craig14]

I said it would be a good fight with Caperello winning, certainly better than fighting the american import, agreed he doesn't seem to want to fight outside of Victoria. Also while great for the boxers records, the ratings on Boxrec a terrible.

[caveman]

i reckon it would be a good fight, depends on wat attitude flanagan turns up with

[Craig14]

Yeah I know Jones was pretty pedestrian but Flanagan looked like he had a good jab and and good counter boxing skills

[caveman]

didnt see the vlamis fight,was flanagan in it at all or was it all vlamis

[fox]

Vlamis knocked Flanagan out last year. What makes you think he would do any better against Caparello?

Improvement. I've seen Flannagan fight a bit from as far back as the amateurs and i thought he looked pretty good against a handy opponent. Not saying he would beat Caparello, but i'm sure he would be right in it.

[Hounddawg]

I think Caparello would take on more Aussies/New Zealanders, but this issue is, no one will fight him.

I doubt very much Flanagan would turn him down, after just winning and defending his state title. I reckon Berridge would be keen for a re-match as well.

He should turn him down, he ain't ready, Flanagan should go after the Vlamis rematch, Flanagan got stopped 2 weeks after taking a flogging from Ben Mc Culloch, not a good career move, if you've seen McCulloch fight. I think he beats Vlamis in the rubber.

Berridge should concentrate on McKinnon, and maybe that Powencby fight, then come back as a relevent challenger, whilst Blake gets through Dante and then Kariuki.

Flanagan took the fight 2 weeks after getting tenderised by McCulloch, those who were there or seen it live on Fox can remember that he shouldn't have fought for at least 2 months after that fight, as a result Vlamis was beaten on tender meat.

interesting,the flanagan of last would do ok i reckon,but he did seem to run out of oomph the last couple rounds,if he does that against cap he will lose

I agree. And just because he got beat a few times last year doesn't mean he wont bounce back. He looked pretty good on Friday and would definately keep the top blokes busy. And McCulloch v Caparello is the fight i would like to see.

Now there's a cracker!

Cappa has these guys Flanagan, Jones, Mculloch, Maley or even Broadhurst when he get back to choose from. So why the f## k is he fighting guys from NZ?

I don't know much about Dante Craig but I'm pretty sure he's not from N.Z.

[A14]

im sure if one of them challenged Caparello, he would accept. But which of those are on his level??

Craig is a 33 year old cruiserweight from Cincinatti, Ohio, USA. He has a 19-12-1 record with with 14 KO wins but has won only two of his last six fights. Nothing to write home about.

[colin russell]

OOps my mistake yes hes from USA but I still think there are better fights for him with the Aussie guys. Aussies fighting Aussies.

[caveman]

broadhurst has challenged cap when his mannagement said they would fight any lightheavy or supermid anytime anywhere, then caps team must have had a decent look at broadhurst and reneged

so Berridge sparks Broadhurst, then Caperrelo beats Berridge and now Caperello is scared of Broadhurst have I got that right?

[caveman]

its more to do with cap not wanting to fight out of vic, sad really

[Craig14]

He'll have to eventually.

[caveman]

yes yid,and the sooner his camp wake up the better for his career,he has potential but if he wont leave his state he wont reach it

[colin russell]

I dont think Cappa is scared of Broadhurst at all I think it got to do with Cappas management there the ones that dont want Cappa to fight Broadhurst. Put it his way Cappas team got offered dam good money to fight broadhurst and it was turned down, yes that was to fight in Qld. So Broadhursts team said ok we will fight Cappa in Melb that was also turned down.Aussies fighting Aussies.

not sure were you get your info collin , dont mislead the public with nonsence , this is a place for boxing fans to express their views and opinions in which agree or not i respect but dont write things and bluff the public you know facts , get your soursce to state his relationship to the broadhurst team and tell me on this thread how much we were offered and at what stage he challenged us in melbourne ; most of blakes opponents have made their biggest pay packets to date ;offer us the same as what we pay and we will fight anywere and anyone ,i am promoting my own show in october , if any of these fighters that names have been thrown around are interested then lets talk and if you can give us the same money i offer you then we will come fight you were you want....since blake won the aussie tittle ive heard a lot of big talkers but my phone hasnt rang and we remain unchalleged,

I'm sure you'll get one from this bloke in near future http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_ ... &cat=boxer

[colin russell]

Be carfull what you say Slab the same money you offer to them and you will come fight were they ( the other fighter ) wants. I will pass that on it will be good to see Cappa fighting out of Melb, Thanks Sla.stay close to your phone.

[Sweet P]

Why would Capperello's team be worried about fighting Flanagan. If you havnt noticed he is the guy facing all other top LtHeavys in the country. Fight after fight.
