Rutherford-Corcoran is a hard fight to pick, i have gone for Corcoran over the distance but Roy has the experience and he could "old man" him out of it as they say. Tough call. Lynes looks in good shape and Witter will be also i would suspect, another long tough one won't do him any harm in my opinion.

I've not seen anything of Corcoran, but looking at his record he should have a chance with Rutherford out for so long.

As for Witter Vs Lynes, I just think that Lynes will be too orthadox to cause Witter any problems. Bet 365 have under 5.5 rounds at 5/6 and over 5.5 rounds at 5/6. Tough call but I've gone for the under.

Good preview BTW

Are they both weighing in wearing jeans or just Lynes? That can add 1-2lbs to your weight get down to lightweight Lynes

They put the trousers back on for the pictures after stepping on the scales

Thank you very much! I'll have to rush home from work and hope there is a round by round here. However, it shouldn't be too many rounds.

Witter to beat Lynnes.

Corcoran has the youth and workrate to hustle Rutherford out of it, but I have a suspicion Roy's strength of punch may prove too much at some point in the fight. I remember Carl Allen having Billy in all sorts of difficulty last year at Wembley before Corcoran got himself together.

The desire's with Billy, but Rutherford wins by stoppage.
