WIGAN BILL INTRIQUES ME

Guys I know obviously we have Ricky later on in the night but the Wigan bill is a cracker domestically for me.

BAYSANGUROV/MOORE

Must confess to not having seen the champion but have asked about and he is very highly regarded by people whose opinions I respect but that last win of his against Bayram was very close despite the fact that the youngster was only in his 16th fight.

Think Moore would take Bayram more convincingly on points that this result appears at face value.

Now Jamie and his team have obviously seen plenty of tapes even if only the same one again and again and I just wondered what the general opinion is, I don't like to misquote but I think I read somewhere that his team accept he is the underdog, just wondered if that was true and also what everyones opinion is in general.

I think this is a close fight and with home advantage this must be a cracking chance for Jamie.

-----------------

WATSON/NUUMBEMBE

Think Ali may be too busy for Craig here, Watson is improving of that there is no doubt but unless things have not been right for Ali in the build up just think he may start to take over in the final third of the fight but looking forward to it and it should be a cracker.

-------------

EDWARDS/McDONELL

What do you all reckon here. Will Edwards just out hustle the talented youngster or could McDonnell have that bit too much variety for the older fighter. Tough to call for me although again plenty of people I know think Edwards is too busy but I think its a bit closer than that.

Your views guys as always are appreciated as all three fights really interest me, If I could get the three picks right I would make a few bob as the prices should be fairly competitive whoever you fancy

wouldn't like to try and call the Moore fight as it would be foolish as I've never seen the other lad. It will be a case of into the unknown I think, absolutely anything could happen. But Jamie will have to be a lot sharper than he was last time out as I have a feeling the Russian/German? will be razor sharp for this. As you state though it's a terrific boost to be boxing with home support.
Watson I don't think will be anywhere near good enough to win against Nuumbembe I'm afraid.
I'm not sure about the 3rd fight as I don't know anything about these guys but am I right in thinking Edwards boxed Dale Robinson a couple times and got some rave reviews?

Anyone know what kind of style Moore's opponent has? Wouldn't mind seeing Jamie in yet another tear up!

He's a come forward fighter who has quite a decent dig but has been decked himself... has the making of a right barnburner.

Sounds good, looks like another hard nights work for Jamie but hopefully home advantage can swing it for him.

not seen him myself but as wales said doesnt take a back step and puts everything into each shot so makes for another fight of the year
