Lee Selby vs Josh Warrington at Elland Road

[Boxnation fan]

Warrington is a much improved fighter and just may be peaking at the right time.

People forget that he's still only 27 years old...which is young for a British fighter as they tend to mature later then Americans and Latinos when it comes to boxing.

Only way Warrington wins is if he keeps the pressure on Selby for all 12 rounds, he needs to maintain a high work rate and punch out from the start and not allow Selby to find his rhythm as once he does that, it will be hard for Josh to win this.

Its also great for British Boxing that roughly 25,000 people will be watching this fight, which will be the 2nd Highest Live Gate of 2018...quite an accomplishment when you consider this fight is between two featherweights without much mainstream coverage.

fair play to Josh, he done well

This is a good template to use for a hypothetical Mikey vs Loma match up. A case where balance and grit overcomes a pivoting Boxer.

Actually i think Josh fought more like Lomo then Mikey Garcia.

I cant pick it tbh.

On one hand Selby has looked like crap recently, looks extremely drawn at weight and performances bang average.

Warrington is better than given credit for imo. Decent boxer, lacks a bit of pop, high workrate though could be a nightmare if Selby struggles on the scales.

On the other hand, Selby seems to thrive on the big nights when the chips are down, and if he really turns up like he has the potential too, he will probably take the W.

Im thinking Warrington might nick it though
