FAGAN and Kimbrough has a chance to enter the top 10
Posted: 27 Dec 2007, 19:15
Fagan V Kimbrough this Sunday for the USBA Lightweight Title. It'll be interesting to see how it evolves. Kimbrough is a bit of a flashy kid like a Mayweather type and Fagan has the same same style as a Hatton, but I think he's a tougher version.
Tough call. If Kimbrough uses the jab, he can dance around Fagan for fun all night, but if Fagan comes out as aggressive as I've seen him in the past, anything is likely to happen and the kid is fit as f*ck!
Kimbrough is ranked # 11 by the USBA and Fagan # 14, although with Kimbrough's amazing amateur record, he looks like he's the favorite by far in comparison to Fagan's lack-of-an-amateur career consisting of a total of 3 fights, haha.
Having said that, whoever wins sill surely enter the IBF top 10, as is usual for the USBA champ. Might open up the division even more.
Anyone know if it'll be televised? I heard Fox are covering it, but not live- can anyone verify their coverage?
