Been watching a few vids on Babic. He comes across like a right fool. A bully. Also he slagged off Eddie. Can’t be good. I admire his loyalty though. But hopefully Molina ends his idiocy.

If Molina sees any weakness from Babic, and he is motivated, the wheels gonna come off the cabbage train.

Yeah, and he most definitely is the "B" side, and that should have been a small "b".
But you never know. Molina in the UK, not where his bread is usually buttered. I know, we all know, Babic is going to come unstuck at some stage. And it is fun while it is lasting. Part of me hopes it's not Molina who does it. I would prefer it to be some young lion on his way up :TU:

Molina folds any time under pressure I can't see him suddenly making an effort to win.

Eddie said Wallin offered to box Michael hunter on the bill, but how could you sell a Swede and an American in London? Then said loads of good things about a Croatian and American in London.... I'm amazed people don't point these things out to him.

If Hunter/Wallin was the main event then there won’t be many people who’ve got refunds that would have kept their ticket.

It’s a fight that would need to sell because of the purses. Hunter would be looking for at least $500k and Wallin would be on decent money too. It’s an expensive fight that won’t generate any interest in the U.K.

Babic/Molina will be costing c.10% of that so doesn’t need to draw like the main event would.

Going back through a few molina fights he is a very weird opponent. I think his lack of heart is slightly exagerated.

Babic should blitz him out early, because looking at molina his main weakness is he is fuking terrible defencivly when being swarmed, Its almost like he closes his eyes backs away and olds his hands up crossed near his head.... the worst defence iv ever seen when being swarmed. Add to this that babic is a swarmer...

But... molinas chin isnt terrible, he got up from a sickening right vs AJ. and although he has been knocked out 7 times, nearly all of them he took big shots and was probably able to get up just knew he was outgunned and couldent cope with the onslaught coming.

He also has by far the best offence of anyone babics ever fought, He has hurt arreola, hurt wilder, hurt wardly, stopped Adamek, and landed plenty of rights on hrgovic.


If molina can remain composed under fire, and grab on tight he can make this very interesting (massive IF). needs to hold wrestle, and lean babic into the ropes at times to have a chance though. If every time babic swarms he ends up with 260 lbs lached on to him and leaning on him who knows...

But as everyone has noted, a lot comes down to if he is just there for a cheque..

WTH :maybe:
I had this fight booked on my sky guide, it was labeled with The women's fight top of the bill, and now it has disappeared off the sky guide all together.
Now replaced with re runs of Crawford Brook and Plant Truax.
What the actual heck is going on? Gag me with a horse c*ck, they can't do this can they.. Can youse poms still see it in your sky guide?
I got money on this card.

Anyone know the run order of this? and guess times?

Wouldent guess the start of the card but im guessing Johny fisher>Youssef Khoumari>Craig richards>babic>Cameron.

Personaly i would bump fisher above of Yousef, just because he sold a million tickets..... should be a fun atmospher with that many having to get in early. Hate seeing undercard crowds empty.

Fisher has sold 1200, 1400 and 2000 depending on which interview you listen to.

I’m waiting for the post fight interview when Eddie says ‘He’s sold 2,500 tickets for this….all out of his hand’.

Johnny Fisher is on before Babic. Presumably to try keep his crowd there. Bit like Nathan Heaney on Warren shows.

If Fishers crowd does leave it's going to be virtually empty for last two fights. But it depends Babic fight probably a 1 rounder lol

Tyson is going on a dinner tour in December. Dillian shouldn't get too excited for February.

I think Fisher said himself it was 1200, although that was a few weeks back.

It used to do me in how Frank Buglioni's promoters and managers would go on about how many tickets he sold. Nowdays every show seems to have someone on it whos selling that many tickets themselves.

One thing I think we can agree is that John Hedges wouldn't be able to give away 1200 tickets.

I think Buglioni sold most at VIP, to the city lot.

Wallin on points. Wallin has a good beard but is not a puncher so I can't see him being knocked out or knocking out Whyte. Whyte is suitably diminished that I think he's ready to be taken by the fresher man.

Neither of them are interesting fighters to me at this point, but both have been talked of as potential opponents for Joshua's triumphant Summer Stadium Extravaganza, and it wouldn't surprise me that a guaranteed shot at AJ is in the contract somewhere for the winner.

Wallin would be up there as one of Whyte's better wins.

Think he'd be about Whyte's fifth best win
