Anyone here interested in this card? Anyone going to it or going to watch it on Fox?
If anyone wants some any info about the Melbourne based fighters, I can give you some pretty solid insight through either sparring them, going to the same gym or having seen them fight before.

Apparantly they will. Just had a look at Boxrec and its a really different card to the one i thought was taking place, but yea, Adam Forsyth is listed.

He's over in Germany fine tuning Wlad with Emmanuel and the boys.

I'm still training, and was scheduled to fight in a week.. but am having a couple of problems i have to get right mate.
Who is on the card?
Paul Bourke, a supermiddleweight, and Steve Attard, were on the card but for different reasons are no longer.
Tim Rolph fights Joe D'Angelo.. Rolph is a tough as tough can be fighter. Short walk up sort of fighter.. have done a few rounds with him. Not a great technician, his power wont be walked through but still isnt great.. a good body puncher and will only be beaten by a BIG puncher or a neat boxer (who will have a field day with him but had better have good endurance). An out of shape fighter will be in for a nightmare against him.
Bruce Glozer fights Nick Savidis.. Savidis was supposed to fight a rematch with Paul Bourke.. not sure what happened. Apparantly Savidis is a neat southpaw, does things well but nothing exceptionally well.
Faisal Fayad fights Dennapa Bigshotcamp.. know fuck all about either.
Adam Forsyth gets his second fight.. its always a crowd pleaser when the big boys get in there.
Susie Ramadan fights for the Aus title against very tough Edith Smith. Train at the same gym as Susie, and she is an unbelievable fighter. For those who think women cant do justice to boxing - watch it!
Johannes 'Tito' Mwetupunga is up against Willie Hadlow.. Johannes is a talent. Represented his native country (an African nation.. possibly Namibia?) at the 2006 Commonwealth Games and claims an Amateur record fo 70-5. Has an absolute piston jab and looks very capable. Would question his right hand though.
Oyewale Omotoso fights 15-7 Tia Koswara (who ive never heard of!). But Wale is good. Real good. Explosive speed, extremely cool and calm, nice head and foot movement. Has 6 knockouts from 7.. but i think that might be decieving in terms of how good his power is.

It's a shame this card is televised because it does nothing to showcase Oz boxing. The card is garbage.

Yep, 1 of the worst FOX cards ever put together.
I think its a bout time FOX take this slot away from Murray Thomson & give to another VIC promoter like Brian Armatruda or Peter Maniatis or even give it to Ace Boxing in QLD.
Murray Thomson cards are consistantly the worst on FOX's calendar.:deal

[Only registered and activated users can see links] is the link to one thread.. and [Only registered and activated users can see links] is the link to another! Be gentle lol
just curoise MB which fighters have you sparred of the card and how did you go, i wouldnt mind a bit of a insight. Thanks mate..
Tim Rolph and another guy, who was supposed to fight but didnt, Paul Bourke. Found Rolph pretty easy to be honest.. had a very walk up style and me being a long puncher with descent handspeed it suited me. He was very tough though.. he wore the best i could throw with a smile. I dont think his overly talented, just a guy who enjoys the sport and works had to make himself the best he can be out of it. As a result, he was a pretty fit pressure fighter. He was a neat body puncher, but lacked any real pop.

Oyewale Omotoso is an interesting fighter, rocked the Indo with a sweet left hook in round 1.
