Kirkland fight tonite

[mrbig1]

Interesting fight. Kirkland has is undefeated but hes been able to jeep that status because of his will and punching power. Julio has been in toughter and his two loses are to the likes of which Kirkland has never seen, both in competitive fights. Both men throw a lot, and both men have flaws in their defence. I dont think this will be a fight that is over with one punch because I dont think either guy has enough power to take out the ther like that seeing as though they both have good chins. I think the difference in this fight is that Julio has had to overcome more diversity and will be able to adjust to Kirkland better that Kirkland will adjust to him. That said, Julio should prevail after some shaky moments early on I think he gos on to win a very close decision. A late stoppage over a confused and uncomfortable Kirkland wouldnt surprise me either. But Ill stick with my original prediction: Joel Julio by SD.

Good post sir. I'm not sold on Kirkland. I know he has power, but that's all he is. He can be hit. I want to learn something about his heart and chin.

Yeah,Im leaning heavy on Julio in this one.Kirkland can cave walls and has shown an improved left but that lack of movement might come back to haunt him.That head is stand still.Have to love his intensity though.I think he;ll sink or swim on that all out power.
