BoxRec

its on the boxrec schedule intresting match up thought derry would get a couple of easy fights then go in with some the better domestic fighters think derry will out box lawton and dont think lawton will have the power to trouble derry, but if its close cant see derry getting the descion as its in stoke

Didn't see this matchup coming. Lawton's got a good chance of beating Derry at Lightweight.

its gonna be at super feather lawtons dropping down

Not sure if this will work for Lawton at this stage of his career. If the fight is actually contracted at 9st 4lb and Lawton weighs in at this weight, i'd then have to favour Matthews.

interesting match up, fair play to Hatton to put his new signings together in their first outing under the HP banner. One coming up in weight, the other coming down - its a must win fight for both really given Derry's lost his last 3 out of 4 and Lawton's in the last chance saloon in terms of getting another British title shot at a new weight. I'd favour Mathews as I reckon he'll deal with the weight change better, plus Lawton doesn't have KO power so I can't see Derry's chin being troubled too much.

that could be a shrewd move for lawton, could work out for him like it did thaxton hope he gets a lonsdale belt like hes wanted for so long

Good luck to you mate if you win this you'll be right back in the mix. Do you feel a lot stronger at Super Feather

Good luck Derry, I hope you can get into the domestic mix at super-feather. Mitchell, Burns, Johannasen coming back - looks exciting.

Can I ask what you think the problem has been with KO's recently, Choi, Martin Lindsay and harry Ramagoadi in your last 4 fights. Is it a weight issue?

Choi was a monster in the ring and will stop plenty more people at the level. Lindsay's shot would have downed an elephant and Ramagoadi was a ref error (although Derry will prob be able to clear it up).

yeah I was at the mathews ramagodi fight and the ref was a joke

I completely agree - however it will be a close one - a very good fight to be made and will be an enjoyable watch.

this is a really good matchup, as long as they aren't asking Lawton to get down below LW in weight

where is this being held (no offence to derry but if i was Scott, i wouldn't fancy my chances of a points win in liverpool )?
