Thread: Colin Lynes - Paul McCloskey

Anyone looking forward to this one? McCloskey lacks a bit of power but makes up for it in skill, I think he might be one to watch for the future!

McCloskey is a top replacement for Barnes.

I thought the bookies would have him a bigger price.. he's 6/4 which is a bit short to me.

Thought his last fight with Wright was a bit closer than the comms and judges had it.. but he won.

Not sure he'll be able to get past Lynes jab. Should be interesting.

Agree'd I was surprised he had trouble with Wright, he'll need to be better than that to get past Lynes, a big win would really get his career flying, it'll be a good start to the weekend anyway!

I didnt even know Barnes had pulled out . I was looking forward to that fight .

Got my worls xmas party Friday so I wont be able to see it anyway but I expect Colin has an easy nights work .

I'm gonna try to get this stateside. I am amazed at the last minute matchmaking replacement, quality fight this could be.

Ooooh McCloskey is a prospect I've been keeping my eye on, he is coming along nice and this is a proper step up. Lynes may get outboxed but has the experience for sure. Is this on rte?

Been in the Gym with McCloskey, I was very impressed with the Kid one for the Future.
