Subject to board approval this will be for southern Area Heavyweight title.

Who wins?

Lewison easy

Not sure where my post went?

Interesting fight, hope it happens - Lewison in round 6/7, Dallas is lacking too much confidence.

I also like Commey Vs Fox - Commey stoppage, but hope Fox wins

I feel bad saying this as Dallas is from the same area as me but he does lack in quite a lot of areas to be honest! He's got power but he's very stiff and his boxing isnt great.

Dallas wins

Good to see Lewison out again he needs to be more active he should be too good for Dallas.

Tom is a nice bloke, almost too nice. His confidence is gone though. I hope he can pull this off but Lewison is favourite.

If this was on Eurosport I would prob watch this over the Burns card, and flick over for the main event. You know the undercard to Burns' fights on Sky are generally going to be poor with the likes of Slowie, Brophy etc who very few out of Scotland give a f about. You would have thought burns and just one more Scot - either Simmons or Simpson would be able to sell out an arena in Scotland and save the general public (considering about 80%+ of the UK are from England anyway) from watching pretty much irrelevant fighters. 2 or 3 max is fine, but takes the piss about hoying 5 people on just because of their nationality. I know Hearn likes to get a lot of the Liverpool boys on his Liverpool shows, London on London etc but at least they are big names / good prospects so most will want to see them.

I used to see him about from time to time as kid. The guy is fornicating huge! Haha. It also puts into context how big David Price is aswell because he was towering over Tom!

Trying being in the same ring as him! I'm fairly tall myself, have actually had people come up to me in the past and say 'you're Tom Dallas ain't you?' No joke.

I don't see it myself as I'm not ginger and am a proper good looking bastard but people's eyes in medway tend to be a bit close together usually so sight isn't a strong point!

Tom is one of the nicest blokes you could ever wish to meet.

your right Tom is a nice bloke but trust me he isn't feeling like a nice bloke for this fight he knows he has to destroy Lewison to get his creditability back. if you two chaps are local and on face book join Tom Dallas Fight Tickets page on face book and buy tickets from Team Dallas we are trying to get as big a medway crowd together as we can.

In Greece unfortunately. I would love to see him win and get in the mix again.

How long you been involved with Tom, Deano? I remember him from his golden gloves days before he went to St Mary's. His commitment stood out then, I remember him getting the endeavour/most improved award at the end of season do.

A must win for both i would say, even more so for Lewison lets hope he's in shape.

Will do mate!

Good fight in my opinion at this kind of level. Credit to the Goodwin team for putting it on.

I remember tom had very short notice with price fight. Was that for British??

If tom loses this next one he is going to need an iron resolve to comeback again.

lewison

Depends what shape Lewison comes in, he has the talent to do something on the domestic scene, but his dedication has been called into question a few times.

Dallas wins this................

Iv been a friend of Tom and his family for years and stood by him as a concerned friend through out his time with maloney but got more heavily involved with his career after maloney did his disappearing act I helped set up the three fight deal with Steve who I must say has delivered on everything he said he would. We asked for Tomas Mrazek as a first come back fight and he delivered the plan was a three fight deal with a Southern area title shot in there and hopefully the board will approve this as a title fight (I don't see why not ) and then Steve has delivered for us again. in a nut shell Steve Goodwin has done for us in two fights what Baloney didn't in 15,

It has been my pleasure

Did you expect him to be fighting for the southern area belt in his first 10 fights? Seems needlessly critical of Maloney to me. Maloney probably saw him getting consistently beaten up by McDermott in sparring and realised he had to be protected a bit.

They had some good spar's quite a bit of it was even and disgrace him self. This is when John McD was preparing for the 1st Fury fight and was really on form. Maloneyat many if any at all.

I imagine big John is a fighter who looks pretty damn good in sparring at times.

The Page fight is the one where Maloney seemed to notice Tom didn't have what he was looking for.

Although I understand he did well financially from the Price fight, was it the best option for Tom to take at that time?
