Seems tiny Nz is coming through at last with boxing talent. Is it the cold weather? or good coaching, or training supplements.....? Grant Arkle has always been an inspiration in the heavy division.

Hopoate will be a good fight for him in terms of announcing himself to NZ! Hopoate will bring a lot of publicity and Hemi will definitely win.


RE: Professional Boxing in NZ - mippy - 08-13-2015

according to Boxrec Hopoate hasn't fought since his Shane Cameron fight? (If you can call it that) in 2010?


RE: Professional Boxing in NZ - tm7 - 08-13-2015

Doesn't matter if he's any good, he just has a big name on both sides of the Tasman and has been made relevant recently by the Brown Butterbean calling him out and vice versa. It would get a lot of attention for Hemi

This could be a very interesting fight to see where Browne is at? If he's serious about a title shot he needs to end this quickly. He should do and I hope he does but I wouldn't be stunned if this fight went the distance given Browne seems to be over hyped and rated. KB will be watching on for any comparisons with the Izu fight no doubt. Could be a good yard stick

Interesting to see Hemi Ahio scheduled to fight on JP's undercard in October! Sky has obviously put their fighter ahead of their pride.
