Soul was lucky to get past Togasilimai the first time I think his will be another good fight. Maybe after this one Soul will step up finally and face Bostic ;-)

Also the rematch between Azzaoui and Mensah is a good fight kinda a revenge fight for Mensah as he was brought in from Africa morning of his fight against Azzaoui first time round. He'l be fully prepared for a declining Azzaoui this time round.

Not a bad card, looks to be even matchups.

I've got Soul by SD and Mensah by KO.

Gary "The Baboon" Gurr have they given him boxing lessons yet or is that another gimmick bout?

To be honest it's a bit of both.....N2 shape is best qualified to answer that. 'Baboon' is training, that's for sure......

Outside of Tua VS Cameron this will most probably be the next biggest night of boxing in NZ for 2009!!

"The Baboon" fought SBW on two weeks notice he'd never put a glove on his hand until then. He's in the gym now and while he'll never be any threat to the serious boxers out there he will be in a few more fights (in the ring) before you her ethe last of him. If anything the SBW fight has given him the motivation to get some gym hours in and comeback better and stronger! 'The Baboon' VS 'The Bouncer' will be a classic Rumble

Why interim, when the title is vacant??

Apparently a submission has already been made by another party to host a title fight, unless otherwise advised- it may then be for title. Thursday confirmed....

Well Anton I am glad you noticed the scenic Auckland back drop and the New Zealand twin sister... not Burleigh heads, that's Rangitoto island and here's the Auckland sunset for you.... :TU: hope you like it

John Howard is in negotiations to fight the winner of Dexter V Stallone, so sorry it won't be him :(
