Crolla - Limond is a really nice match, looking forward to it.

Good match up. I think i read that they are mates but shouldn't stop them putting on a show. Limonds been knocking on the door for a proper title shot for a while now.

This could be a great fight. Another quality challenge for Crolla, shame hatton didn't win it though.

Don't get me wrong, Limond is a nice little boxer who I appreciate has had to do things his own way but I certainly don't think he has been knocking on any doors. Morales fight aside, living off the Khan fight is probably more like it whilst treading water.

That said, nice style match up but I think Crolla's extra ambition and hunger will see him win this before round 10, probably with Limond still upright saved either by the ref or his corner

aye, i think Crolla has a bit more what Jim Watt would call 'harrudnuss' to him, and i'd back him to start taking over the fight middle rounds

I disagree mate. I think he's waited a while to get another shot at the British title and i think he's only got it now that Tommy Gilmour is managing him. His level of opponents Morales aside have been poor recently but he could still suprise a few people.
