I tipped Ekundayo at 12/1 to win Prizefighter and I also tip him to beat Foot. Larry is a class act and may surprise a few more people in this fight. We did not see the best of Larry in Prizefighter.

Larry was class in Prizefighter and didn't look at all troubled in all of his 3 fights - I don't even think he even got out of second gear.

Considering he's now 31 and only had 6 fights in total (2x 4 rounders - 3 prizefighter bouts and one 8 rounder) He's a very natually gifted boxer - Do you know why he waiting so long to turn professional ?

I believe he had visa or work permit issues for nearly a decade :o

To be fair the fight against Craig McEwan was very close and could have gone either way but Ekundayo was not troubled at all. I believe Larry would have controlled the fight over a longer distance.

Speak for yourself. Ekundayo is a technically gifted boxer and is quite entertaining.

This may have come too early for Ekundayo.
Foot is a strong foward fighter and physically strong at the weight. However in Prizefighter he showed his ability to counter and box on the back foot. After his most recent performance he showed he can mix it a higher level than his few fights suggest and I personally think he's a bad choice for Ekundayo.

I have to disagree on this, 3 rounds suited Foot, over a longer distance Ekundayo with his relaxed style will be better, Foot will gas later on, because he uses too much energy in the early rounds and too much power shots, but nice match up though, interesting.

He was rather fortunate against Craig McEwan because it was a close fight and could easily have gone either way. Many thought Craig won. However, over a longer distance I would strongly favour Larry.

Foot may gas, who knows. However he held a cracking pace in his last fight and was as strong in the 8th as the 1st, and theyre fighting at Foot's weight. I don't see anything in Ekundayo that suggest he'll keep Foot off him. May be wrong as I've not seen much of Ekundayo but what I have seen wasn't great.

I have a feeling Ekundayo may be all wrong for Glen. And I say that as a big Foot fan.
