Sorry, Anorak, the Williams speak can go in another thread.
So any of these fights look good? I take it the welterweight bought is between a couple of prospects, with local boy Barnes being the favourite I'm sure. Still, it's not like he's going up against a 40-year old nobody to get an easy win.
Seems like a lot of heavyweight fights. More guys that can be hyped to death until they come over here and get pummelled, I guess.
How about the rest of the fights? Who should we look out for?
Well I have to say that I am looking forward to the Maccarinelli fight, not that I think he is a true prospect but just because his hands must weigh about as much as a four door car. So he is exciting to watch. However he tends to flail around with his hands low so I can't wait for someone to punish him for it.
Alexander was an exciting fighter but is past it and missed his opportunity to shine. Which is a shame. He could have challenged (and probably been beaten) for a world title. He fights are normally fun to watch though.
Barnes can be quite good fun to watch but I don't see th ebirghtest future for him.
So all in all probably fun to watch but nothing you'll be talking about in two weeks.

MACCARINELLI and ALEXANDER are the two fighters to look out for, thats only because both are big punchers and you could see a good KO.
BARNES has skills, i just dont think he has the mental side of the sport to make it.
