My thoughts on CURTIS WOODHOUSE V WILLIE LIMOND Boxing

CURTIS WOODHOUSE V WILLIE LIMOND
sky_sp121:00 Friday 27th June



Summary : 

Curtis Woodhouse, The 34-year-old  ex Premier League footballer who retired immediately from boxing after his all out war with Darren Hamilton back  in February of this year has being tempted back into the ring.
Who would blame him ? but is it a case of the heart ruling the head for Curtis Maybe it was the lucrative offer from across the border to take on Limond in Scotland too hot to turn down?
Answers on a postcard  :)

If we look at both fighters records:
boxrec.com Curtis Woodhouse 

boxrec.com Willie Limond 

Willie comes out on top with more experience as he has fought against renowned fighters in Alex Arthur, Erik Morales, Amir Khan and Anthony Crolla while Curtis has fought Derry Mathews, Frankie Gavin  both fighter have moved up and down weight classes and making weight for tonights  light welterweight title should hold no problems for both. My concern really is with woodhouse, his last fight was a do or die fight in which he put  1000% of his  heart soul and  life into that fight. Question for me is, while Curtis will give his all tonight 110% against Limond. I just feel he might not reproduce that kind of mental/physical performance from his last fight tonight. against Limond, who since his loss to Anthony Crolla has had 3 fights and won so confidence will be high and this bout with Woodhouse will be a step in the right direction if he wins tonight. Both are well  schooled fighters  and while both fighters  don't have  Ko power imo they will have no problem going to war toe to toe tonight. Either way, It makes for a entertaining  fight for us boxing fans.
