For the heck of it I might put some dosh on Green R1 KO/TKO .....

Definately be a good fight. I reckon many would watch this fight in NZ and Australia especially, no Im not trying to say its a NZ vs Aus thing but most of the interest would be from these two countries.

These 2 will go to a decision IMO however if its to end in a KO it'll be Shane doing the knocking out IMO.

Cameron KO.....

Shane Cameron decision winner 78-74, not a very interesting fight, This fails to register here. Green v Flores, thats what Australia wants.

Whats that Rhino?

i would of said green by decision before but he has stacked on some weight and is closer to 90kg now, i reckon he flores flores for sure

I'm not sure Green putting on weight is actually the best thing for him. He was never a natural SMW, but has always been a natural LHW. I'm sure he could still make LHW now, although it would almost certainly weaken him somewhat. I believe that while fighting at LHW Green generally walked around at about 86kg/190lb, so I would guess that his current walking weight would be a little over that. More bulk could slow Green down, which is exactly what he doesn't need against Flores.

We know Flores will weigh 200lb, I don't think Green should really come in any heavier than 190lb, 10lb at this size doesn't make a great difference.

yeah sounds about right acording to hyder he is about he is between 87 and 88 kgs now and looking good, i wonder if he started putting on weight in july right after the briggs fight rather just after he confirmed flores . if he carries the weight well in this fight maybe he could be a reel danger to the rest of the top end cruisers

Has anyone seen him with the extra weight?

I remember thinking he was a little 'soft' around the midsection in his promo's for his last few fights. If he has put weight on I hope he has done it the right way.

Cameron will beat McCracken easy.
He is looking sharp in the gym and getting back to 90.7kg is a more realistic and natural weight for Cameron
who always struggled to be a heavyweight. He was an awesome amateur at 91kgs knocking out Adam Forsyth on at least one occasion and stopping him on points in another.

yeah i remember him looking slightly podgy just before siaca but i think he looked better for briggs fight though.

its hard to tell from his latest facebook photo but i can only imagine he has be sensibly about it.
i asked hyder and he reckons he looks massive at the heavier weight, not sure if he means bulky though.

oh well fingers crossed

anthony mccracken won that fight! for the judges to judge it the way they did was crazy, sometimes you really have to wonder if this is a fair sport! Even the croud was screamin booo! Open your eyes judges and judge it fair!!!!

Hopefully that's the final nail in the coffin of the potential Green vs Cameron fight. Cameron himself said he would need a KO win to become a viable DG opponent.

I missed this fight. I set the IQ to record but the bloody thing only kicked in during the Wilson - Bryce fight

Sounds like I missed an interesting fight?

Good back and firth fight but McCracken definitely should have got the nod. Cameron is very limited these days, I thought he was much better at HW to be honest.

Surely that knocks a Green fight on the head?

i hope so, be just as short as cameron v tua if not shorter. but def way more insignificant.

It was a very close fight for first 9 rounds and the scorecards were hard to separate and one has to give both fighters their credit as one would tee off and then the other would counter. Cameron spilt a lot of blood and that gave the impression that he took a lot of punishment, which he did but he gave just as much back and won 2 of the last 3 rounds (spliting the 11th) and on my scorecard that gave it to him by a narrow margin. The judges scorecards were unkind to McCraken who put in a determined effort.

I saw the fight exactly as the previous poster (Beltane) did, I scored it 115-114 Cameron. I thought McCracken fought a career best fight and could have easily been given the decision. On the basis of that fight I can't see Cameron troubling Green, if the fight was fought at the cruiserweight limit then obviously Cameron would have one thing in his favour, but I just see him as too easy for Green to hit.

I did the timekeeping on this fight, I kept a scorecard for myself. I had Cameron winning by 2 points. 115-113 Great fight.
