I like this fight. Good to see both Larry and Sam back - haven't seen enough of either over last 12-18 months for my liking.

As much as I'd love to say Larry will win I just don't see it. For me Sexton will have far too much technical ability in the early rounds and I'm just not sure that Larry will be able to hang around long enough to stop a tired Sexton later on. Am happy to be proved wrong

Larry "WarMachine" Olubamiwo will easily annihilate Sam Sexton.

Why do you think that? I think Sexton's superior skills will show and he'll win.

Good fight.
Chisora would have been a big ask first fight back after a loss IMO. The winner of this one could fight Chisora if he loses against The Nightmare.

Sexton is a pretty tidy boxer and has some power. Much as Larry comes across as a total gent and decent chap on here, I have to pick Sexton for this based on previous showings and boxing ability.

I fancy Sexton in this one. I had the Sexton v Chisora fight pretty even when they fought until Chisora took him out. Sexton has a good jab and i think it might be a tough night for big Larry

Superior skills?
Olubamiwo is a powerful puncher. Wait and see, it will be a round one KO for WarMachine.

You've seen them both fight right? I'm sure even Larry wouldn't argue that Sexton is the more skilled of the two.

I've seen them both, I follow the HWs very closely.
Neither is highly skilled, but Larry at least is a powerful puncher. Sexton doesn't have a good enough defense to keep Larry from catching his chin. Wait and see: it will be a KO win for WarMachine.

It wouldn't be a massive shock to me if that did happen, one big thing Larry has going for him in this fight is his power.

X2 it was a accumlation of punches from DC knocked Sam out with tho not just one big shot.. I dont think Sam is Chinnie but one thig for sure is Larry can Punch Sexton is the more Skillful of the 2 and has been in with Better opponent.... imo Larry your up against it, be a very good win if you do.. Very good Fight for Us lot to watch for as long as it last's

Good fight. I presume this is a chief support rather than headline fight on allegedly though?

Good fight IMO. Both need a good win to get themselves back up to title mix, although thinking if Sexton is on form then could be a big win for him.

it wil be a tough fight, I think tougher than chisora because Sam is very sharp with his punches and very technical but I havn't been twidling my thumbs since my last fight so I believe you will see a different warmachine. I have massive respect for sam though as he is a gent.

Out of interest Larry, how do you think you would go on against Fury, considering he was so open to big shots in his last two fights ? Also, if you do get past Sam, do you think Fury would put his British title on the line ?
