I might be the only one on here who thinks this is a decent quality fight.

It won't be a decent fight unless Sam smashes him up, but the quality is there.

Berinchyk is the only man to have beaten Navarrete in the last 14 years*. I know Vaquero was moving up again but the Ukrainian still had to beat him.

So far Noakes best performance was his loss to Mason. I'm hoping he does a number on Berinchyk & goes on to fight a top ten fighter. The Lightweights have a lot of quality but no real stars at the moment.

Noakes is ranked in the top ten by all the governing bodies. Hopefully Bricktop can get him a title fight at home in the Spring.

I've added a poll just to keep Ruthless happy.

I think it’ll be decent too. Noakes should have the edge in sharpness and quality, will probably go the full 10.

Noakes is a throwback fighter. No silly gimmicks, hard as nails and yet still entertaining to watch.

British, Commonwealth & European champion...there is an air of quality about Sam and while he fell short against Mason, his performance was praiseworthy.

I'm hoping Noakes can mount another winning streak and secure a second tilt at a world title.

I've not seen much of this Berinchyk guy, but it's a meaningful contest between two world rated contenders.

i think noakes will beat him pretty easily, berinchyk gave me some hints over the last year or two of a guy who achieved waht he wanted and is now in an opponent mindset

if this was both guys at their best berinchyk would be very tricky for noakes, although i'd still like noakes to p ressure him to a decision

Yes, this is a very decent fight.

Been looking forward to seeing Sam since that hugely impressive fight he had with Mason, who is perhaps boxings next big star. And Sam him gave him a great fight, tough as hell.

And Denys the menace has only lost to the other guy who is probably going to be a boxing superstar, Davis.

Good fight, I mean, we are all probably expecting Sam on points, which is likely going to happen, but quality all the same.

Actually, I can’t even remember Dennis’s fight with Davis, which means it was prob very one-sided, so maybe Sam stops him
