munroe very impressive

I have said this before , Randall Munroe , is getting better fight by fight

l have seen him fight in uk before he got exposure on tv , and he is seriously a very good fighter

he is in serious shape , and is a handful for anybody

I know everybody on this site , harp on about how great B Dunne is ,but I have said this before , I dont think B Dunne would beat Muroe or even Martiez

he is a light weight , he has no punching power and has fought absolute bums , I would welcome a fight between munroe and dunne

I think munroes work rate is excellent and he can actually box and throw decent combinations

Munroe also has a excellent work rate and is big and powerful for his weight division , I think this chap could be the star of the division not Martiez or Dunne

You must have watched a different fight than me????? Munroe was off the mark for the first 3 rounds and i actually had it evens after the 3 rds, after this you could clearly see that bouiata was out on his feet, he was not fit and had a gameplan which was 3-4 rounds and see what happens!! Munroe was definately the busier and must have outpunched bouiata but 5/6 to 1 but his accuracy was terrible and his handspeed is very poor,he won on sheer workrate and nothing else, also for such a BIG BIG SB he has not power and this comes down to technique and how flat footed he is, he is also very upright and will get tagged quite a lot against decent opposition. He is a very average fighter IMO and i think pickering would beat him if he still has the stamina to go 12 rounds at this stage in his carreer.

No, not everybody harps on about DUNNE. I would say a select few do. I don't rate Dunne at all....

The winner of Pickering v Marsh will get Munroe next , I suspect that will be Marsh .

I don't think we'll be seeing too much of Mr.Nartinez again , I think he'll probably move up in weight and spend a while rebuilding himself in Spain . After all he's still very young .

Dunne will be the next European mandatory , he'll get a shot at Munroe before the year is out .

He was very effective at side punching on the clinch,
he had his opponent winching and uncomfortable on the clinch.

It would be hard to see B-Dunne beating him, although I'd like to see it come off

Bernard has bigger and better options. Bernard is a west coast fighter. West coast of Ireland, mind. Out in Jaxys Casino Bar and Grill, the big fights, against guys wearing gloves 2 sizes bigger than him. Oh he's a rare one alright, that Benny Done In One!!!

Think Munroe is on a different level to Dunne.


Dunnes peashooters wouldnt put a dent in Munroe, his non-existent defense would see him getting pummeled and his poor condition and absence of heart would see him quiting early.



Easy one to call(and I dont think Munroe is anything special).

Dunne has shown he isn't a big puncher, he has shown a very open defense, he has shown stamina problems and he has shown his chin was vulnerable . But when have we ever seen him lacking heart or wanting to quit ?........he could have done so against Martinez but stood and traded with him in vain, in an attempt to turn things around .

Munroe v Dunne is 50/50 for me , but if Munroe was to win I can't imagine it being from Dunne quitting .

Yeah, even when Dunne was caught by Kiko, he went out swinging.
