G I didn't realize they paid so well for Charity bouts, Cameron and Betham combined are getting 6 figures!!!!
Thought it was for Charity, might give this a miss now that I know all the cash is going to these idiots lol.

Paige Hareb may be a beast, but it would be a mistake for her to underestimate Hayley Holt. Holt is very, very quick on her feet so Hareb might struggle to get near enough to hit her hard enough to put her on the deck. This match up has all the hallmarks of Fighter v Boxer. I think it could be closer than you are picking.
TAB ODDS
CAMERON $1.13 VS BETHAM $5.00
CULLEN $1.85 VS LUKE $1.85
HOLT $1.70 VS HAREB $2.00
MCFARLAND $3.00 VS SEUSEU $1.33
MESSAM $1.33 VS SAILOR $3.00
PARKINSON $1.70 VS KOOPU $2.00
SPENCER $2.40 VS GUTTENBEIL $1.50
Some interesting odds, I would be fairly confident picking a few of these results.
Although maybe the TAB has some inside knowledge.
Can't see Cullen, McFarland, Parkinson or Spencer winning and I really don't think Betham can get past Cameron (6x2min rounds is in his favour though)

wtf how does Parkinson have better odds? Parkinson is in terrible shape and Koopu is in great shape, i think Koopu is gonna knock him out, that looks like a good one to bet on
Hayley Holt won her first boxing fight against Emma Ferguson last week

Parkinson has a background in boxing and is a complete mongrel, he has a fighters mentality. Koopu is ripped but hes technically not as good and he never had that urge to destroy people like Matua did..
whats Matua's background in boxing?
here's highlights of Hayleys fight with Emma Ferguson, looks like she won it comfortably but she did forget to keep her right hand up a few times, looks like she really tired at the end too, I hear Paige is very fit so that could be a big advantage for her for the last round, but Hayley looked really comfortable lol

Yeah she went ok for a rookie. She had a good corner also. Because Hayley has already had a fight, Im going to bet on Hayley and thats without even seeing that other chick.
Dont know much about Matuas boxing but I think Justin Marshall does lol.
Im wondering if King Carlos will be as fancy in Boxing as he is in Rugby.

Having seen that, I'll stick with my original call.
Hayley does look like a boxer, throwing good 1-2 and 1-2-3 combinations that looked like they were really hurting her opponent.
Some of her punches looked a bit roundhouse to me, which risks opening up the midriff if they aren't delivered quickly. A bit risky early in the bout.
The coach ought to get that right hand up before the weekend.

Shux Los is HUGE. Not too sure if more muscle is the way too go in the boxing ring.
Suddenly the idea of roids by AB's gets only a little bit stronger.
Winners:
SeuSeu
Parkinson
Holt
Guttenbeil
Luke
Messam
Cameron
Winner: LEAGUE

Good call, a guy who's been out of the All Blacks for seven years suddenly becoming ripped is definetly an indication of All Blacks using steroids...We won't mention he's been in South Africa for the last two or so years?
He does looked ripped though, can't believe just how huge he looks. Very impressive.

It's pay-per view in NZ via SKY. Hang around Youtube not long after, you'll probably find some of the matches. I can imagine some finishing pretty quickly.
Just referring to this article: http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/rugby/all-blacks/5947543/All-Blacks-pair-took-steroids-in-the-1990s
The only one that popped into my mind during the 90's was Carlos who went from a stick playing for Horowhenua to a decent sized build playing for Auckland NPC to a beast during the mid to late 90's for the Blues and AB's.
Not that I'm saying that he did. Just saying that he popped into my mind.
He is one of the most impressive builds out of the fighters.* Even Slade doesn't look too bad.
*Hayley's my winner.

My predictions:
Shane Cameron vs. Monty Betham-----very easily
Liam Messam vs. Wendell Sailor-----close
Issac Luke vs. Christian Cullen
Jerry Seuseu vs. Slade McFarland
Awen Guttenbeil vs. Carlos Spencer
Wairangi Koopu vs. Matua Parkinson
Hayley Holt vs. Paige Hareb
Shane Cameron vs. Monty Betham-----very easily
Liam Messam vs. Wendell Sailor-----close
Issac Luke vs. Christian Cullen
Jerry Seuseu vs. Slade McFarland
Awen Guttenbeil vs. Carlos Spencer
Wairangi Koopu vs. Matua Parkinson
Hayley Holt vs. Paige Hareb
How do you know Koopu isn't a nut with his fists? Rugby mentality vs fighting mentality is too different things, plus they are good mates so will be very competitive.
Parkinson's boxing background is having 1 fight on fight for life about 5 years ago. He isn't a technician lol.
I think that will be a very entertaining fight, Mutts will have the power advantage, but he might lag in the 2nd and 3rd rounds.
