Good fight, nice match-up. Competitive.The turk is a bull, don't see him getting knocked out, but izu should outbox him to make good for his stupid loss against breazeale where got careless & caught. Demirezen can whack a bit too, so good fight.

The first I heard about this fight is that it's off. Ugonoh v Demirezen is a very appealing match-up in my view. Hope they get to re-instate it sometime.

i doubt it. at first it was postponed from december to march due to death of Andrzej Gmitruk who was a Izu trainer, no it's cancelled due to Michalczewski's conflict with tv station (They decided that they won't show this event on their main channel so Michalczewski was not intersted and decided to cancel the event). it was postponed to march but Izu's opponent was changed anyway - he had to face a guy who previously lost to Demirezen, 8-2 Sergiej Werwejko http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/746744
