Power was very impressive, good skills and very controlled and focused it was a joy to watch.

Power vs Kelly would be an interesting match-up. Althought for obvious reasons Kelly has his eye on another fight.

Power can go far I think. Euro level at least. But I think a fight with Kelly at this stage might be a step too far. Stick to domestic level for the time being I would say.

The problem is, there's not an awful lot of domestic competition at these low weights for him at the moment.

He's fought Robinson. Napa I guess would be an option for a 2nd fight. I'm sure he won't be thinking about moving up yet, which really leaves Kelly. Kelly, fingers crossed, appears in line for an imminent 2nd pop at the EBU title.

In the interim, I'm not sure who Power could fight now (that would be new) Where is the comm bantam title these days? Booth is the last guy I remember having it, but he lost it to someone. An ozzie or canadian or something. Maybe he could fight whoever has that, maybe someone with a decent whack or something to ground him for a date with Kelly in the near future?

Even imported fighters would be better right now I think just to get more experience. Kelly is a bit too good for him right now I think.

Power should win the lonsdale belt out-right next in either a rematch wiv napa or robinson and then fight experienced european even if they are non title over 10 rounds. he will learn so much more than fighting the lower domestic guys.

A good win for Power over Ward as i expected ! i think Kelly is a lovely boxer but Power V Kelly in the near future i think Power would win with a late stoppage he would be too strong for kelly,, he's proved he can go toe to toe for 12 rounds and proved he can box, it would be a crackin fight..........

He wouldn't be able to hit kelly , I feel Kelly would outbox him all night long maybe even shut him out .
