Re: Lee Selby vs. Gary Russell Jr.
I've been to Lee's gym many times, know his trainer and interviewed him. Covered, from ringside, his fights.
He has natural talent and has power along with toughness.
Gary Russell, is great to watch and fantastic ability and skills.
Would be a compelling and entertaining fight

Don't believe the hype . Walters would wipe him out inside 4 rounds , he is a belt holder not a world champion.

Re: Lee Selby vs. Gary Russell Jr.
Is it 4 rounds or 2? Either way you're making that assessment based on what exactly?

Re: Lee Selby vs. Gary Russell Jr.
Selby clearly has some power. His KO win over Stephen Smith was brutal and he rocked Gradovich a good few times who can certainly take a punch.

Not sold on Selby as a top top operator (he's clearly at least 'good' though) but he has more pop than his record suggests.

Re: Lee Selby vs. Gary Russell Jr.
that Walters is a murderous puncher and Selby has 8 KO wins and has a poor defence.
Cunt of a Mod. Fact.

Re: Lee Selby vs. Gary Russell Jr.
Selby's first ten or so fights were 4/6 rounders, mainly against British journeymen who earn a living by surviving. It's hardly surprising he wasn't scoring KO's. Peter Buckley took Naz the full 6 rounds too.
Since he ironed out Stephen Smith he has 7 stoppages from 11 fights. He is cleary not a powderpuff puncher.
As for the fight with Russell - I was well impressed with Russell last time. Amazing speed. Selby has a significant height and reach advantage though which - combined with his obvious skill - should allow him to offset that. Good fight.
