Assume the weigh in is today? Anyone know when it is?

Level of those high standard or not, Olubamiwo has put 9 out of 10 wins away early, that is not overated power and he wasn't too bulky to throw big bombs against them. Then you say that your not saying he couldn't KO Sexton? How do you know Danny Williams hits much harder? Or that he doesn't hit anyway near as hard as Lennox Lewis. Have you tasted punches from all 3?Exoddus wrote:Think Larry is behind Sexton in nearly every compartment. I think Larry’s power is over-rated on this forum. Larry is to bulky to throw big bombs.

Not saying he couldn't KO Sexton but I think Sexton brings to much to the table for Larry. Good luck Larry no disrespect intended. Hope Larry wins.
Olubamiwo wins this easier than many think, everyone is going too much on his last fight where anyone can be caught cold and going in with wrong tactics. It's happened to the best of them. Would it happen again? I doubt it.
I said he could KO Sexton because Rogan had him in trouble many of times and Rogan's power is nothing special. I think Sextons superior boxing skills wont allow Larry a chance to get the job done. I hope Sam’s mother is well now and Sam should be ready for this fight. I'd wait to see the weigh-in before placing a bet on Sexton though.
No disrespect intended this is just my own personal opinion.

Rogans power is nothing special? Have you been hit by him like? I've been in with most heavyweights either sparring or fighting and rogan is a very sharp puncher ask Dolan or Skelton.
Using top heavyweights past and present as the general scale. No his power is'nt anything special.daveferguson wrote:Exoddus wrote:I've watched most if not all of Larrys fights and most of Lennox and Danny Williams.
