Khan-Kotelnik Undercard

[JazMerkin]

A pair of great fights on here.

Hall vs Small looks like it could be great & I get the impression that if Small can last beyond the first few rounds, he will take it, as I think he's got into his head. Hall is a tough customer though & wouldn't be surprised if he gets him out early, but I reckon he may do too much too soon.

Also on there is Kell Brook vs Michael Lomax. This will be the first real test for Brook since McIntyre & arguably greater. It should offer a good indication of how far he can go as Lomax is a difficult fighter, particularly due to his height & I reckon this is actually a pretty good undercard, although not quite as good as the Khan-Barrera one.

I'd like to have seen Maccarinelli take on Ola again, because Ola has been kinda frozen out since beating him as none of Ramirez or Tokarev want to give him a shot.

[Hoggmeister]

Yeah its gonna be an amazing night of boxing and i cant wait! Im picking Anthony Small to outpoint Matthew Hall in a tough fan friendly fight and think Kell Brook will be much too fast and accurate for Michael Lomax, possibly stopping him in the middle to late rounds.

I think it will be the other way round if anything in the Hall fight, I think Small will get stopped around the 8th 9th, Hall imo will walk him down, can i ask mate in what way do you think he has got in his head?

I think Brook is a couple of levels above the likes of Lpomax who was soundly beaton by Craig Watson.

I just feel Hall wants to beat the shit out of him a bit too much & will go after him & if Anthony can get through the first couple of rounds then I think he can either take him out late or win on points in a close fight. I know its a comparison Small brought up in a different way, & in talent its not applicable, but Hall is reminding me of Hatton before the Mayweather fight. I actually think both guys are talented enough to go beyond British level & worthy of challenging for a world title, if not winning it. It helps that the LMW div is a bit sparse right now

Is Enzo still boxing on the undercard at all?

[rowlesy]

He's against Lebedev(sp?) isn't he?

[Master]

Watching this in the pub what time is it due to start?

[bzkfn]

Correct and correct spelling too. I see Enzo losing another one here. I think Frank is giving up on Enzo now, and he's feeding Lebedev his first test. Real crossroads fight here.

[superheavyrhun]

I'm on a stag do this weekend (who thought this was a good weekend?!?!?) so not sure I'll get around to watching any of it, but some very good looking support bouts there.

I think Small will have the measure of Hall, Small was unlucky in his defeat, he seemed to be trying to outmacho Pryce and show he could take the punches, and the ref stopped it cause he wasn't throwing back. Stupid tactic, and a big setback for him, but I reckon he'll be British champion come Saturday.

As for Brook v Lomax, as has been mentioned above I reckon Brook is too good for Lomax, and although his reach will give him some advantage, Brook will get in and land the heavy shots.

In terms of Enzo, I hope he gets the job done. Lebedev's been lined up for him for a year or so now, not sure if it's Warren getting in on the Russian market or if he's a fight tailor-made for Enzo.

[Fenster]

I know Hall has improved since the Concepcion loss but i can't get away from it. I think Small might be too tricky and considering he is the underdog and i don't see the fight going the distance ive backed him for the KO. Should be a cracker.

I think Brook will handle Lomax fairly comfortably. Brook is a massive favourite with the bookies. I think he'll win between rounds 5-8.

[Fenster]

Anyone know the running order?

According to Sky's adverts they are showing Hall-Small and the poxy Olympian bridle jobs before Khan.. so no Brook-LOmax or Enzo fight live...

[bzkfn]

I agree Fenster. Lomax is a decent test, but Brook is a star in the making and I can see him walking through Lomax.

I like Matthew Hall alot, and I actually felt he'd KO Bradley Pryce. I do wonder though if Small might be a bit too clever and unorthadox for him. On the other hand, how will Small stand up to the power of Hall. If Pryce can hurt him, Hall definately has the power to. It's a real interesting fight.

What happened to Macklin being on this card?

[Fenster]

Macklin has joined Hatton Promotions

He's fighting Darren Barker later in the year.. which will be an absolute cracker

Since when!? WTF, I thought he had the greatest promotor in the world in Frank Warren. At least thats what he said. What happened to that then?

I bet Darren sparks him.

Just found out ITV will be showing some boxing so staying home and watching that instead. Save my self some money that way.
