boring……
O someone is going to get ko’ed , mostlikely Alessio
Ford has already earned a rematch? HOW?? There is no one else that deserves a shot at the belt? Big Time favoratism, almost to the extent of EliteXC. Complete BS.
yah i really don’t like pavelich, i don’t think you should be pres. and manager for some athletes. They just use Ryan Ford because he’s a local boy and draws a big crowd.
Thanks for covering this Kris, this is a great feeder org. and Pavelich has done a great job to help the sport grow, along with Jason Macdonald who has several fighters in this one. The biggest and baddest not mentioned here is Roger Hollett, a truly scary powerful dude and in my opinion a future world LHW champion.
Alessio is a beast. I don’t see him getting knocked out here, although I have been surprised before.
Alessio has never been kod and his ground is far superior to daley. The only way Daleys gonna win this is by decision, if Alessio lets it get that far.
