flannigan vs zepeda

[Re-up Gang]

very intriguing fight this.
whats the feeling?

[handsofstone]

I haven't seen Zepeda before and he hasn't beaten anyone of note,Cayo and Frankel were the only names I recognised on his CV, I'm sure his team will be thinking the same about Flanagan, what is certain is that Zepeda can punch,and he's a switch hitter so Terry might not have the southpaw advantage

Its 50/50 for me,I fancy Flanagan's chances if it goes the distance

Its a great fight though and I can't wait,can't believe England have never had a world lightweight champion before

I think Terry will stop him late, that's if Zepeda makes weight.

[Manchester Hitman]

Terry will do him on points but Zepeda can crack so he will have to come through some stick

Zepeda will be drained I think and Terry will tak over completely agree.

[MightyWarrior]

I don't know much about either, or how good Flannigan is, but Zepeda looks a bit on the protected side - watched a couple of his knock overs and it seemed the opposition were more concerned with finding a soft spot on the canvas more than anything...plus he sticks his head up in the air and doesn't seem to have much in the way of a defence..

Maybe he's a lot better than he looks, and really carries power, but it'll be interesting to find out.

Both fighters make weight. Flanagan 9st 9lbs, Zepeda 9st 8lbs 8oz.

Looked in good shape, Terry noticeably taller though and looked the bigger man IMO.

Quick question. New to the forum, how do I reply like you did including other persons post?

I've told everyone who'd listen that Zepeda wouldn't make weight. Glad he's proved me wrong.
Terry I think will be one of those fighters that gets better being a world champion. He's always huge at the weight.
I really fancy him to win tomoz.

Zepeda appears to be a different class from what I've seen and I think he wins well here but hoping terry pulls it off. Good luck to him

[handsofstone]

I'm looking forward to this card tonight,really can't wait for the main event,I think it will be a cracker,the undercard is pretty thin as far as competitive fights go but I'm still looking forward to seeing Butler,Walsh,Catterall and Ustinov do their thing

There's about another 3 threads on Flanagan-Zepeda which I've already posted my (contrasting) thoughts on but I could really make a case for both guys

Ive decided to plump for a Zepeda KO win in the middle to late rounds but hope I'm way off

The win that sticks out for me is his Cayo knockout.
Cayo is a good fighter.
I can see either Zepeda KO or Flanagan points. Flanagans workrate is top drawer.

Cayo and Robert Frankel were the only names on Zepeda's slate that I recognised, Cayo was a decent fighter a few years ago but seems to lose a lot these days from what I've seen of him albeit against top opposition but he's always KO'd when beat so its hard to gauge

Flanagan has always impressed me and people who have worked with him have been banging his drum for a while now so hopefully he repays the faith they've shown and goes out and does a number on Zepeda

Its a terrific match up let's hope Terry delivers

[palooka]

I don't think I've seen Terry wobbled or hurt, if hue can keep his chin down and vital areas covered he'll mow Zepeda down late.

[brilo33]

this looks like it could be a real cracker of a fight . i am going with the home fighter Flanagan (cough cough)

[Tangerine]

just flicked on who has been on so far?

Macaulay McGowan won on points, Joe Costello, Kallum De'Ath and Jon Kays all won before they went live.

How did Terry pass his Brain Scan?

[tony1234]

Ustinov v Joshua would be educating

[Shambles]

How did Terry pass his Brain Scan?

Ha, bit harsh! I've thought that about fighters before but now wonder how well I'd do in front of a camera, worse than Terry I reckon!
