Personally, I think it looks like its going to be a tough fight for Arthur, as Gogoladze seems extremely awkward & fast too.

My money's on 'Average' Alex Arthur.

[brown bomber]

My money's on 'Average' Alex Arthur. In what department is he average or do you know him a little better then you should do! :oops:

[victorhugo4222]

My money's on 'Average' Alex Arthur.

How can you justify saying arthur being average?

[nulty]

My money's on 'Average' Alex Arthur.

He's not average. He wasn't blessed with the most natural world class gifts but he's worked damn hard to get to were he is and is far from average.

[brown bomber]

How can you justify saying arthur being average? I think its one of those Khans chin is suspect, Hatton is selfish and really secretly an asshole or Mundines the number one super middle type of comments that are easily written but very hard to substantiate.

[Vantage_West]

My money's on 'Average' Alex Arthur.i kinda agree with that he isnt a great technician not a great puncher not a speedy slick fighter not a great chin not a great game of play.

but everything comes together so well.

like big casamayor or a mini hopkins....but in a white , scottish form

[Vantage_West]

He's not average. He wasn't blessed with the most natural world class gifts but he's worked damn hard to get to were he is and is far from average.yea just like a said in less paragraphs











anyways to the thread.
ive seen koba fight 3 times on are british friend espn. he is a counterpuncher with no real gifted aspects but is trained really really well. nice jab doesnt commit too much and has an alright beard..people may look at the record oh koed=weak chinned he was just beaten to the punch and was swarmed...somthing arthur isnt going to do.

I hope Dunky Isn't just no random name.:|

[Dunky McCafferty]

Thats it uploaded now lads:good

Gogoladze to me seems very talented & could pose a lot of problems for Arthur, he was a talented amateur who represented georgia in the olympics & I would have to say I think hes the most talented fighter has faced to date.
Hes also beaten Carl Johanneson, so that suggests Gogoladze is decent & can take a good punch. But still, Alex Arthur UD:D

[BigEars]

From looking at that it seems Gogoladze can be cut off and when he is , he isn't that effective . I feel Arthur is quite good at cutting off the ring so that bodes well for him .

[achillesthegreat]

Footage on Koba isn't rare. Koba is a boxer so he'll give Arthur something to think about. All the experience Arthur gained against the likes of Limond and Burns now has to be put into action on a higher level.

[achillesthegreat]

A good thing is it can't be said Arthur is ducking or avoiding Johansson. He is now fighting for world honours and facing the man who beat Johnasson!

I dont ever think arthur was dodging Johnasson i just think he seen it as a step down for him and wouldnt do him any good as hes trying for a world title shot.

[Steve Fox]

How can you justify saying arthur being average?Would 'average' be as ridiculous a name as 'amazing'? I think he's well above average, but he ain't amazing is he?

[China_hand_Joe]

GogoladzeI tempted to pick Gogoladze, but only because I keep mis-reading his name as "Godzaghe".

[victorhugo4222]

so what if he calls himself Amazing Alex Arthur its all part of the game nowadays. look at Hatton for his next fight hes calling himself the ''mancunian mexican'' does that mean hes mexican??????????????

[brown bomber]

What about kid diamond.... does that mean he's a kid made of diamond?

[Steve Fox]

so what if he calls himself Amazing Alex Arthur its all part of the game nowadays. look at Hatton for his next fight hes calling himself the ''mancunian mexican'' does that mean hes mexican??????????????The name 'The Mancunian Mexican' refers to his style, as well you know. Having a nickname of 'Amazing' isn't open to misinterpretation. 'The Entertainer' Johnny Nelson - you don't find that amusing? I wasn't really having a dig I was just selecting an alternative name that also begins with an 'A'.

Looks a good boxer. Definitely tricky for Arthur anyway. From that though, he doesn't look like he has overly heavy hands (good knock down, but more timing than power in that one). Combining this with the fact that Arthur is a big big SF, I wouldn't be shocked if Arthur just walks him down and goes at him.

Arthur also has excellent body shots, so I think he could wear the boy down by the mid rounds.

Still...glad it looks like he is moving onto a higher stage. These are the testers!

Yeah your right def going ni the right direction but i think with athur wearing him down i think he will stop him in the later rounds.

Let's be Frank here. Arthurs reasons for not wanting to fight Johansson were manure at best. He wanted a certain amount of money and bullshitted about Carl not proving enough yet. Plus he was then going to fight some other Eastern guy when he proves much more in facing Johansson.

As it is, he is doing something bigger and better than Johansson but had he not, it wouldn't have looked good.
