    Bradley Saunders is the one who scored the 1st round knockout.

    Next fight will be tough for him though, he's up against a Cuban who put in a good performance himself.
    Didn't see the Cuban... Who do you like in that fight?

          Billy Joe has been my favourite so far, but there is a little bias in me for our boys, although i did catch the Correa fight which impressed me.

            I've seen Correa a few times 'live' as well, and this was definitely the best I've ever seen him.
            I haven't seen Fletcher, but he can't be a complete chump, he's won Commonwealth gold before.

              My bad, I got confused about the Cuban. He received a bye so I can't call the fight.

              I think he's only on the team because of Lara's failed defection.

                  Warren at flyweight, and Andrade at welter.

                    Andrade didn't look that good, I think he's capable of better though.

                      Yeah, I'm hoping BJ'll get the win...

                      Lara succeded in his second attempt. He is now pro, and has won his debut already. This is a kid I train, doing very light sparring with him, about a year ago in Turkey:
