    I'm not saying that Ali isn't a good fighter, but what are his biggest notable wins? Zahir Raheem.
    Have you only seen that fight? That's not enough to base an opinion on. Nate has fought a lot tougher guys than him.

Ali likes to keep distance and walk his opponent down, he has quick hands and a strong right hand.
      Yes you're exactly right, and Nate knows that. Nate knows what he's doing, and he's more than ready for this fight.

        I don't want to ruin the fight for you right now & others and give one side an unfair advantage.to tweak their camp..you found out on Valentines Day after the 3rd round when Nate blood had been spilled.

          You mean I will find out on V-Day? Yes. You're right. We will all see on V-Day, so make sure you don't miss it.

                Nate is the real deal. What you see is what you get.
                I just text Nate and told him about this forum, and that anyone who doesn't think Nate can do it are the ones that are basing Ali on the Zahir fight.
                Baloyi is the strongest guy Ali has ever fought, and Nate is stronger than him, so he's in for a surprise.
                Nate's going to beat his body so bad that he's going to start pissing blood. Just watch..

                  I just got off the phone with Nate and told him what you said, and he said he'll make sure to give you a shout out when he's won the fight, so don't turn the channel!

                    Nate's learned to protect his chin much better in the 4 years since he was last stopped. He trains like a beast and his age is misleading, since he started boxing so late. Nate's faced far better opposition than this guy who's never been out of South Africa and only faced one guy with a pulse, a fading Raheem. Nate should be a sizable favorite and I wish him the best of luck.

                      Ha Funeka can crack. Nate can too. But Nate is a way better boxer so if he gets past the first couple rounds, Nate should be fine.

                      Funeka is a really tall lightweight. Kind of hard to believe he makes weight.
