Esham pickering Vs Matthew Marsh??

[yvonne]

Hi they Chantelle.Nice video of Marsh on your thread.He has good around boxing skills and he utilized his combinations from the head,chin and body really good in the opening rounds mainly,as well as using the same good technique throughout the rest of the fight.I remember him fighting Derry Matthews not so long ago.He was always going to find it hard fighting with Derry Matthew due to the lack of height and experience.Mind you he done himself proud for taking on a fighter like Derry Matthews so early on in his pro career.I dont mean to ""DISH"" Marsh but would you agree that he seems to lack power in his punches?I mean he got in some top notch Uppercuts in the opening rounds,"while he was nice and fresh",and their seemed to be no effect to them.Obviousley you dont and cant always win a fight by K.O but to fight someone as good as Pickering then he'll struggle to win early.Nevertheless it should be a AWESOME fight and i'd like to see Marsh win and i hope he does.When is the fight??THANKS!

Hello Chantelle, I'm also biased cos Matt's my best mate so I think he will win. Not taking anything away from Pickering cos I know he's a tough boxer but Matt is relentless when he boxes. His opponants have to work twice as hard and I know how much he wants this title.

This should be a really good fight!I remember Esham fighting my local hero Hunter for the European title a couple of years back(2005).Pickering had Hunter down TWICE!Once in round 2 and again in round 3.But as soon as Esham recieved a cut near the eye he was on the back foot and that then Hunter fought back in great deternination and won after 12rounds.Great fight that was.Esham is always game.Im looking forward to this one.Should be a little slug fest!

You think they rushed Hunter a little putting him in there with Molitor?
It seemed he was just operating at Euro level then wham...Title shot.
Particularily when there was a huge payday available for him V dunne.

Im not too sure if he was rushed!Hunter was the kind of fighter that would fight anyone at any time in due course.I think he maybe took the IBF title fight to Molitor at a good time really.I mean Hunter Cleared up the Brishish title up,then retained the EU belt a few times after taking off Esham so when he got the chance to fight for the IBF he made the right choice i think.He had the advantage of the IBF challenge due to him fighting on home ground at the Awesome BOURGH HALL in Hartlepool(his key venue for MATCHROOM fights).There was talks that Hunter never felt very well before the fight with Molitor on the 10th Nov 2006.Weather it was the weight issue that he had trouble with afterward through his Career i dont know!!But i remember seeing Hunter on the walk in of the fight and he looked ready for it.The atmosphere in the Hall was Awesome!I was about 10 metres from ring-side.I knew Molitor was a classy fight and i asure you he was from the first bell.Hunter went down twice.The second time he went down was his last for the fight.Mind you it was aquality shot from Molitor.

Matt's been working on his power punches and that showed in his last fight with the round one knock out. His opponant didn't get up til several minutes afterwards and even had to be helped out of the ring.

This next fight will show Matt's new strength I think.
