Zappa makes his U.S. Debut on the 12th Dec 09, no opponent yet, but this is his moment of truth, has he got what it takes ? GO ZAPPA.

recently Austrailian prospects haven't faired too well in the US. I reckon that's mainly due to being protected here. Lenny has fought some good fights already though, so it may be a little different. I hope so, i like Lenny, and want to see him suceed.

Yeh, I agree Toppity. He has seen some solid opposition here. Although he hasn't fought any big punchers yet. So we will have to wait and see.

I was thinking that not long back ben, he really hasn't fought a good puncher, which is why i really wanted to see him in with Ganoy.

Go Lenny!!!!

I've been following Zappa since i seen him live on the Mundine undercard in his 6th or so fight, so i can't wait to see how his debut turns out.

I read in THE FIST that Elias Nasser has had some major involvement in securing Lennys contract with Gary Shaw. Judging with the way he has directed Vics career I think barring disaster Lenny is in very good hands. He wont be rushed and he is very young, we could be watching the development of a future champ. Good luck Lenny Zappa!

Truly the fight that should have happened.

But as mentioned he has got in with a good promoter who should bring him along nicely in the states.

TBH getting away from his 'entorage' is probably the best thing for Lenny...
