Dunne on points. Much more rounded than Hunter.

Dunne has shown great improvement since moving down to Super Bantam.I just think Hunter is too one dimensional and can be outboxed. I think Dunne would dominate him from the outside and soften Hunter up for a late stoppage. But Dunne really needs to cut out the showboating which does him no favours.

Yeah I agree totally!! Hunter works like a dog, but is pretty limited technically!!

Workrate V Technique....

all I say is Jamie McKeever V Jackson Asiku

Thats not to say Dunne is as good, or punches as hard as Asiku, I'm merely illustrating the point that technique is far more important.

It would be interesting but I would favour dunne, used to think Hunter was the bomb - but looked like he has found his level since winning the EBU title.

Think Dunne can outbox him, and has enough power to hurt him too. Although, I'm sure Hunter will raise questions of Dunne and I wouldn't really like to call it.

U think Dunne would do Pickering?

Styles makes fights and all, he might struggle more against Esham than Hunter - again too tough for me to confidently predict, but if a gun was at my head and I had to make a call - I would say Yes.

Yeah, Dunn would very much dance Pickerings dance, and it would suit Esham far more than the punishing pace of Hunter. Esham has far more experience than Dunn, and Dunne would keep the pace within Eshams comfort zone.

To be honest Pickering was leagues better than Hunter, and it was only his distinct lack of power which let Hunter back into it. Hunter then out hustled him.

Dunn would beat Hunter, but would probably get beaten by Pickerings slick style.

I think that Dunne has another gear in him. None of his opponents have pushed him to show it though. I reckon an opponent like Hunter or Pickering would bring it out of him although Pickering would be a much harder fight for him I agree.

I think Dunne would take Hunter on points , but be severely tested throughout . Hunter's got a long reach and a good jab which is what will cause Dunne the most problems as he often has the reach advantage in his fights .

However I feel Dunne will be too slick and that left to the body would slow anyones workrate .

Nice to see ya jacko mate, i was thinkin of goin down to Blackpool for the fight but work, you goin mate?

My take on this is Hunter goes absolutely crazy on this guy and stops him in 3, then i come on box rec and laugh at all you Dunne nuthuggers, Dunne hasn't fought no where near the people that Hunter has. :roll:

Dunne is 2 years younger than Hunter and has had less fights, he is now at the stage where he wants to step it up. I always hate people who dismiss a fighter just because he has not fought as long or as much as the other fighter. Just because he hasn't put himself in a big fight yet, doesn't mean he'll bottle it when he does. And if you think that Hunter with no huge punching power will stop a good boxer like Dunne in 3 then you are the nuthugger my friend.

He's taking the piss , Razor will favour his man Hunter but knows it's a 50/50 fight . This is a much more interesting fight than Hunter v Pickering II .

Hunter is fighting Tuncay Kaya tonight(and will win) after that he has the option of facing Pickering his mandatory around September/October or facing Dunne (#2 with EBU) as a voluntary and facing Pickering 3 months after that .

No need for the wink because if he beats Dunne and Pickering his next fight would definetly be for a world title(or an eliminater) .

However , Vasquez would destroy him and so would Sithchatchawel .

Leaving Daniel Ponce De Leon(WBO) who seems like a real banger , 28-1-0(26inside) and the vacant IBF title .

Just had a look at the IBF website and things seem very interesting .
As they often do the #1+#2 places are not rated as they like to use eliminaters to fill these . In third we have Gabula Vabaza of South Africa and in fourth Michael Hunter .

The IBF have Pickering #12 at Featherweight . So it seems like whoever emerges as the top man in Europe between the trio of Hunter , Dunne and Pickering will end up in an IBF eliminater or will get a title shot .

Dunne will hammer hunter on last nights performance, a brother of mine who knows very little about boxing watched dunnes last fight and the fight last night turned round and said to me "dunne will batter this guy".

If the french lad could have punched a bit harder then hunter would have been out of there.

Dunne's not even rated by the sanctions except 27 in the WBC so how will that get Hunter near a title shot fighting that guy?

I am a friend of Micky#s so i suppose i will be a bit biased but you'd be the same if it were ur mate.... :wink:
It will be a great fight, i notice Dunne has been ten rounds twice and both were close scores....be interesting let's see Dunne handle the guy Hunter fought last night that would be interesting

the Vorinin fight was scored a bit closer than it should of been but the Valdez fight was close .

Dunne would box rings around Kaya , small short reach keeps coming forward and has a lack of firepower........it's the perfect opponent for Dunne .

For me Hunter was less than impressive last night .
