Comments Thread For: Michael Conlan Calls For Rematch With Leigh Wood Following Frightening 12th-Round TKO Loss

[Madison Boxing]

he'll lose the rematch too. instead of an achilles heel he's got an achilles chin. i wondered why he was being moved so slowly and i got my answer yesterday

Is that what you would back then? What do you think happens in a rematch?

Probably a 50-50 still

i don’t think either fighter is particularly that good, but them together probably makes for a good fight.

It would depend on how the fighters approach it. If Wood getting the stoppage last night makes him think he can just look for a big shot, he would probably get outboxed easily. Conlan isn’t a great 12 round fighter though and will always fade late on, but last night the early knockdown probably made him empty the tank quicker than normal too….But then if the fight is more even early on without any knockdowns, Wood might grind him down a bit quicker.

too many variables. Conlan is the better boxer, but the problem is he doesn’t keep it up over 12 rounds against that kind of pressure. Of course it depends how Conlan is after last night.

if both versions last night fought 10 times, I doubt either wins 7 or more. They’re pretty evenly matched.

Well, you're obviously welcome to your opinion.

I would personally recommend Conlan goes nowhere near this fight for a long time - if he even recovers from the first one.

Dude may end up in a wheelchair or worse... It's a horrible matchup for him.

He ended up getting caught on the cards after that huge knockdown in round one and I just don't see it happening again.

Woods has an iron chin conlan gassed dropping bombs on him. It came so suddenly he was winning the 11th then slipped on that water and after that it was like over 2 mins later lol
