Willie Limond v Curtis Woodhouse

Post by adam426 »

Interview today on Scottish Fight News with Willie Limond who has signed with Alex Morrison and looks to fight Curtis Woodhouse on 27 June at Braehead Arena. http://scottishfightnews.wordpress.com/ ... e-retires/

Woodhouse said on Twitter: "I'm ready willing and able, let's do it"

Will be some fight I think. Very evenly matched but Limond wins with home backing!

Willie is a good lad and a tidy busy boxer but he won't beat Woodhouse at lightwelter. A late round stoppage or win by 4 points for Curtis.

Curtis Woodhouse turns down £50k to fight Bradley Saunders because it was the 'second best offer' made. Are we to assume he's potentially getting more than £50k to fight Willie Limond ? Unlikely I'd say :shame:

Limond pretty inactive, barely worthy of a British title fight IMO.

Probably less money, but if he beats Limond, the Saunders and Coyle fights are still there down the line, with extra money already in the bank. Providing he beats Limond, in the long run, this will probably make Curtis more money than fighting Saunders now.

Woodhouse has a great chance of adding the Commonwealth belt to his collection though and hopefully gets a crack at the European after that

:TU: It would be a cracking fight,Limond's not got many more chances left at 35 and a hard career so hopefully he can make it competitive(although im sure you'll disagree :) ) and you,ve got to feel yourself that your capable of making the step up to the next level,i;e when you were English champ you felt you could make British/Commonwealth level,now your British titlist you can step up to European

Who is Euro champ? is it still Di Rocco,the Italian who got a gift against Daws?

I think it would be a good scrap, the next step for the winner would be a European title shot and I'm probably like most fighters I think on my day I can give most a tough night, I just want to keep moving forward, not interested in backwards steps, I want to see how far I can go, if this is it for me then fine I did what I set out to do and become British champion, but if I don't try I'll never know, he who dares rodders!

I think your fight with Willie would be a 50/50 fight.. I think you having the tactical help from Booth was outstanding in your last fight and Willie has Peter Harrison.. Whoever gets there tactics right will win this fight.. I think you will shade it Curtis. Think both you might need to get up from the canvas in a great fight. I hope it happens. I will want both you to win so I can't lose ha

I know people can get caught up in the whole "footballer" aspect of Curtis's career, but this for me is a real trade fight,2 tough men who you know will give their all,whether both men can keep up with the other..........i can't wait :box:

Yes I think it's a 50/50 fight, one if I'm at my best I think I'll win, anything less and I'll get beat, let's make it happen, winner takes all

Great fight for both fighters, Willie and Curtis will fancy their chances of beating the other and becoming British and Commonwealth champion!! The winner can go on to have a big fight but the loser will struggle to find a way back at this stage of their career.

I thought Curtis had retired :doh:

Yam Great Curtis, but that was one wank retirement. You're better than Haye and Mayweather in that department :OhYes:
