Looking forward to this. Haskins by late KO or UD. Is Morales still trained by his brother Erik?

[PredatorHayds]

I'm going to this.

Haskins impressed me with his recent power. I'm definetly fancying him to win. Undecided on late stoppage or points though.

I think this is a dangerous fight for Haskins, I've seen Morales a few times and although he's got nowhere near the quality of his brother,he's still a solid fighter,has a similar style to Erik and most Mexicans,aggressive and always on the frontfoot ,Haskins could give him problems with his switch hitting and general awkwardness and hopefully make Ivan look a bit crude

I could see it going both ways,Lee surprised me against Iwassa and was excellent that night so I wouldnt rule him out pulling it off,think Morales's relentless pursuit might be too much though

[cold187]

hope we can see haskins vs mcdonnel rematch, AFTER THIs

No media coverage at the press conference today?

[stujones]

Was a bit stunned at the odds, Haskins is quite a warm favourite... the odds on Morales are very tempting.

[gilgamesh]

I was a HUGE fan of Erik Morales so I'll always be rooting for his family to do well. I'll definitely be rooting for Ivan to pull off the upset here, but seeing as how Ivan lost his next to last fight to a fighter with a so so record, and has no wins over anybody of much notoriety I don't see him doing well here.

Not to mention his last fight was at 130 pounds so maybe coming back to 118 will have him a little drained.

I think Haskins wins by decision, but I'll be rooting for Ivan.

look on Craig Kennedy facebok page, video of the press conference

was some, mostly local, Haskins is a poor ticket seller i went to his fight with a friend when he won the title (well a version of it) and there was next to no one there, but he was fighting on a hennessy show and they really promote fights that well.

Unless something major happens i can't see it making much press in the nationals.

Its on channel 5 with mcguigan promoting his first card on there, I would have thought Iifl would have at leasy sent the young ginger kid with nowt else on this weekend...

[Glass Joe]

probably be someone there fight night probably not worth their time doing the build up paying for hotels and no one really on the card that will generate views and money. im guessing someone will be at bolton tonight.

Weigh in was pretty packed down Cardiff today.

Huge buzz down here for the fight. The Welsh seem to be really getting behind Selby.

The Kennedy head to head was pretty spicy!! I think this contest will be a belter.
