leo makes his come back on the 27th on the undercard to earl/romanov. he takes on jhon honney and it is his first fight in 3 years.

his record at hennessy sports was 13-1

how do people see him doing?

I saw him fight a few times whilst he was with Hennessy. Seemed to be a good fighter but perhaps not the fittest I've ever seen.... Has he been training hard??

I Think Honney is a hard fight to have on your comeback after 3 years out, But if Leo has been putting the hours in will have to much skill for him.

I'd be interested to know what weight fight is made at.

Very tricky bout after that amount of time out, but he has some unlicensed fights I believe so he shouldn't be completely rusty. He may get outboxed if Honney fancies the job.

leo is a class act if he gets himself committed..

i think he will KO honney with a trademark left hook before the end of the 4th

i see him fight a couple of times last year in unlicensed bouts and he looked in reasonable shape.

Jon Honney said tonight that he has never been in with anyone stronger than O'Reilly. A good fight and Leo did very well after three years.
