just watched the first half of the fight, Barret looks something special. Great balance, good footwork and speed, and can definitely hit! The first left hook he hit the guy with was a stunner, god knows how he jumped up from that, didn't even see it coming! What a tough guy!

the other geezer was a nutter, what a hard man.

really looking forward to seeing how zelfra develops, i havent been this excited about a young propsect since ricky hatton.
that is what i have been thinking, but i tend to get a bit carried away from time to time with prospects so wondered how the lads with more knowledge than me felt about him. he really looks to be filling out now and finding his man strength as well, i always felt he looked like he was late to mature physically, but he looks almost there now.
i dont get carried away often, but its hard not to a have a good feeling about this kid. he looks complete and his team around him are superb. going to be great to see where he goes from here.

Zelfa moving to Matchroom?

Possible 2+2=5, but he just posted he was on his way to London, and Eddie posted about a new signing who will debut (for Matchroom) on July 1st card, to be announced tomorrow.

I saw Hearn's announcement and it mention's debut so, unless he's meaning Matchroom debut, I'd be surprised if it's Zelda. My money's on Buatsi.

That would be a very interesting fight.. Would deffo test Zelfa's chin and how he would deal with a big guy. I would favour Barrett by stoppage far too fast and slick for Cacacae

Well 2+2 did = 5, and it was Buatsi. Zelfa being off to London a pure coincidence.
