I just depends what Derry shows up really there has been moments in fights where he is outstanding, hard to hit and good fast punch combinations. Other times especially when he's been hit he just really does lose heart and it costs him fights. He's improved a lot though but he really is chinny and this will haunt him. But If he stays focused for 12 rounds I do think he has a chance Rhun. As I said before in this thread If he loses he will retire for good, so I'm sure he will put in 100%. He is the underdog though, but I think he will definatley put up a good fight I'm looking forward to it.

I'm tempted to try and round up a few mates to go down to Newport for it, as the atmosphere with a bunch of pissed up south walians and scousers should be pretty tasty. Might wait and see what's available closer to the time.
