Comments Thread For: Jack Catterall has set his sights on Liam Paro after beating Regis Prograis

Wouldn't the fight be bigger down under ?

I thought that was the case. I am Australian and the world title fights are always a big deal here, but the fact that Paro had to go back to Puerto Rico again to fight a challenger to make decent money means that somehow Eddie could not pay him enough for a fight in Ausrtralia. It is very strange. I do not understand. Somebody suggested they could not get the government to support them (meaning pay them).

That is the crux of this issue. Paro comes from an island and wins on islands, why not England? I look at him as one of Eddys next cash cows if Paro buys in. Eddy has a deal for him.

Yes, I believe Eddie will offer him a good deal. The fact that Paro is fighting away (again) means he could not get decent money in Australia (which seems very strange).

If I was on Paro's management team, I would not let him go and fight Jack in the UK. Short of Paro knocking him out he will lose on the scorecards. Your hometown 4 point advantage wipes him out at the start of the fight. The problem is Eddie will offer significant money that will be difficult for Paro to get elsewhere.

Catteral is more hittable than it seems when he's fighting a shot and short armed dinosaur with no footwork. My money would be on Paro.

Jack looked pretty average I thought, Paro should be able to get him, much quicker feet and hands than Regis. I would bloody hope he wins, Catterall is Kinda **** to watch.

Jack looked good against a tricky opponnet , lets see what's next for this talented kid who was on hold for quite a while with the Josh Taylor saga .

Paro isn't scared to travel, so maybe Eddy can get him into the UK. The problem for Cat is, Paro isn't shot, keep away won't be an option. Who said I don't like Aussies? This one me like.

Paro should win
