Billy Dib v Mike Oliver live on Aust TV Sat AM (EST)

[Youngy]

I see Billy Dib is on the card for fight night at the Connecticut Convention Center, Hartford, Connecticut, this Friday night. It's on ESPN on Saturday morning in Australia.

Looking forward to Billy returning quickly to the top rank of fighters in the featherweight division after his surprise last start defeat to Evgeny Gradovich. I see "The Kid' has dropped down to outside the top 10 on BoxRec ratings. Hopefully an emphatic win against Oliver will get him another shot at a world title.

Billy needs a very comprehensive win and needs to look very good doing his. He got dominated last time out. I hope he brings an aggressive style, sets down on some punches and lets his hands go. Go luck Kid

Good first round. Dib landing some good punshes, especially to the body

[Grant]

Dib hit him low, could b over no still on

[Grant]

Another low blow. Dib will b dqd imo

[Grant]

Good 4th round to dibb

[Grant]

5th round even in the 6th now i think dibb is landing more but oliver more flashy

[Grant]

Dibb has been very good winning the last 3 rounds. If it continues like this dibb will win on points even with 2 points taken off

[Grant]

Dibb gets tagged once or twice each round but landsmore big punches. I have him in front by 2 rnds

[Grant]

Last round now

[Grant]

Mike oliver showboating, will be visibly upset when he loses the decision i think

[Grant]

To the judges. I wonder how much power billy has. He landed some awesome punches but oliver didnt go down

[Grant]

I think Billy needs to watch his P's and Q's, that ref was all over him, he hdecided from Round 4 on that hitting to the body wasn't really an option, Oliver the home town boy got a few things his way in this fight, felt for Dib, much better fighter than what we saw today.

In all honesty he's gained some fans in the states as Atlas stated with his come forward style, but he can move, maybe blending the styles and rethinking that Katsidis career was cut very short by todays standards because of it.

Would like to see him actually knock someone out over seas! In all honesty Oliver should have been knocked out, and i think if he can get Evgeny in Australia or even Macau he stands a better chance.
