Dave Allen vs Lenroy Thomas II - Who wins?

[jamamb]

mate so why havent they already been getting world title fights then? being commonwealth champ isnt selling point at all for a world title fight. get real. they arent close to world title. allen is fighting dallases and howes and thomases lately. thomas is just a guy used for prospects to beat and hes no draw at all. you think hearn is gonna be promoting him on his cards against guys who arent his fighters?

clear your head mate. you just want that to happen and are talking yourself into it. hw division being shit doesnt mean everyone gets a shot. maybe allen if he wins will get a fight with sexton for british.

Everyone who has the right promoter will get a shot. They won't get a shot because they are Commonwealth champ, as you said not all comm champs get shots, but the fact they are with Hearn is the diff and belt will be just the excuse they need to put it on Joshua's undercard.

[jamamb]

so everyone with hearn gets a world title shot now? and hearn getting thomas a title shot just seems strange. these guys would both be among the worst ever to fight for major title. like i said, more like an allen-sexton fight for british. not even sure allen can win that hes so limited. allen is pampered but i dont think even pampered enough to get world title shot next.

want something hilarious? then list allens three best wins

How did this get so twisted?
This fight is basically a stand alone event.
The winner is no more or less advancing anywhere from the outcome. Both nice guys for sure, but neither are contenders for much more just yet- even with a win, they are at least 2 fights at a higher level away from even being in the mix for any international belt. It's just not that type of match.
Parker is beyond bothering about a commonwealth title, his phone rings off the hook with bigger and better offers. If your a HW, want a belt, and can bring some cash, who you gonna call? Joebusters!

It’s a good fight at its level. No ever fight need be to be world class to be enjoyed.

Exactly!
It's a redemption fight at a -C level. And with two guys that have their own styles. I'm looking forward to it. A packed card and I would love Dave to keep up his activity in this one. If he wins, I don't know where he goes from here, but where ever it is, you can bet on a few laughs along the way

Allen is a bit like Jon Mcdermot

ya, no shitt a fight doesnt have to be world class to enjoy it.

Anyone remember the McDermot scales mystery?

[jamamb]

big john was significantly better than allen

practically no one as bad as allen has it so good career wise

[SAPFO]

What the draw? He does not exactly entertain.

Big jon would beat Allen 6 days a week and twice on a Sunday.
Allen is is a nice kid but he's garbage, fast car must have a man crush on him.

Mostly out of the ring stuff. In the ring he has heart and doea his best. I'm not really sure how to answer your question, but to quote the classic movie The Castle;
"It's all about the vibe"

[Andrew]

Part of me would rather Thomas win this because he will definitely fight Joe Joyce next.

agree. allen should be very thankful he gets the platforms and opportunities he does, including this rematch. hearn has really supported him. big john was in a different league.

Hearn does have an odd habit of getting a bit too emotionally attached to his fighters, Froch, Barker, Bellew to name but a few.

However, they were all much more worthy of his time than Allen, who has done nothing in the ring to warrant it.

[Marlo Stanfield]

Worth noting that this is Dave Allens 4th appearance on Hearns PPVs

He's never won a title.

His best win is Jason Gavern

[chinarich]

Let's not kid ourselves here, this is one of the weakest pairings for the Commonwealth HW title that there has ever been. They are both nice guys and it doesn't mean it can't be a good fight, but they are levels below challenging for anything more significant...

Feckin hell. Lenroy can fight on the 4th Nov, and this gets pushed to Haye/Bellew.

Allen vs Sexton instead next week then

I'm not so sure a virus is only a cold.
Has Lenroy got a virus from googling "how to beat a Rino" and got directed to pornhub?
Because they have been having trouble with viruses lately. Apparently, or so I have read
