he has to work in the early rounds, make it impossible for the judges to go with Ottke. If he gets stuck in 2nd gear for the first 6 rounds he's in big trouble. Ottke will patter away all night long.
as that guy said in that oj simson trial film "this is a real moment" and this is the case for robin reid on saturday he has to take this opportunity or go the way of david starie into a firemans uniform
lets hope he does it but i also fear he won't crack the case and not work hard enuff and therefore lose on points whether he deserves it or not
come on robin win this fight then we can c u in with howard eastman live on the beeb 9 o clock on a saturday evening even the granny's will be tuning in for that one.

this is the 2nd major world title bour the BBC are showing within the past few months and where is the clips to show the fight? This is where they let themselves down
They've done really well to get this fight but have not advertised this to the hilt.

I will be surprised if reid wins a round.
Ottke will jab him in the face all night.
Ottke, clear lopsided UD.

the time is a bummer but I bet those who have sky would be pissed they'd have to choose between that fight and RH-Tackie.
a few ads in the evening would do it no harm at all.
