The Irish: Fagans chances vs Khan & Rogans vs Audley
Posted: 02 Dec 2008, 09:02
Just wondering what people on here think of Fagans chances vs Khan?
I think this is a great comeback fight. I don't think Fagan will trouble Khan with single shots but his pressuring style may encourage Khan to get involved in yet another brawl, which could provide for some exciting action.
I'm still not convinced of Khans stamina over the distance, and this is something he may have to do this Saturday. Fagan is a self confessed gym rat with a huge heart and I think we can expect to see McCullough-type resistance and determination on his side. At 8/1 I think any backers will no doubt get their moneys worth.
Looking forward to this one and may well go along. If Khan can stay away and box he should be able to win this without much difficulty, but I'm not sure sure he'll be able to resist getting involved on the inside more than he should and in that case Fagan may well have his moments. What I would hate to see would be the usual Khan flurry, followed with a premature stoppage.
As for Rogan vs Audley, surely the 9/2 available with Boylesports is the bet of the week? Having won Prizefighter Rogan has proved how tough he is and that he can fight continuously through exhausting rounds, and I can see him being more than capable of stealing points along his way to a close decision win thanks to a far higher work rate than Harrison, who prefers having distance in his fights.
