  • Monte Barrett vs Shane Cameron tomorrow, opinions?

    Personally... Monte should cruise to a UD Imo. I'm not too worried about judging in Kiwi-land.
    Don't really care for Shane sparring with Haye.... I don't think it'll give him anything significant to beat Monte.
    Thoughts NSB?

    Shane Cameron isn't very good.

    Monte Barrett is age 41 now. Unlike Cameron, he was a decent fringe contender in for several years, but now he's well past his prime.

    To be honest, it's not an interesting fight.

    What interests me more is the HW clash between Abdusalamov and Byarm (televised by ESPN2 as far as I know).

      Monte Barrett was a decent fringe contender for the better part of a decade, just outside the top 10, but he's faded now.

      I know it isn't that important or interesting.... I think it's a big fight in kiwi land though. Imo I bet when and if Monte wins, he'll fall out tua for a trilogy
      .... Of which will be bog there, but maybe not so much to the world. Maybe if tua got in shape and got all his personal problems resolved

          Isn't Monte fighting Shane because Tua called off the plans for a rematch to retire? Monte was able to smartly outbox Tua, he's old as hell but I don't think Shane will be a problem.

          If Monte wins, maybe a fight with Seth Mitchell is on the horizon? I know Monte planned to retire, but he'll stay in the game as long as he's offered a decent check.

            Nah, he might've tried to pursue a third fight after... but I know he's calling for it after he fights Shane.
            If he's offered that kind of fight though, I think he'll take it. He can make decent money fighting in Kiwi-land, but fighting in the states would give him that much more.
            Basically, I think if Seth calls him up, he'll answer.

                I got into an argument with somebody on a different site citing ages between the two.
                I was like.... even with the age difference, I think Barret is still better. Plus the judges at home haven't been too bad to Monte.
