Brad Pauls

“Feeling good,” said Pauls. “It’s a chain of fortunate events that’s led to this moment. Best year of my career. Mostmomentum I’ve had and it just keeps getting better and better with the European title being added. I feel this fight’s probably above British level. I think Denzel’s above British level, definitely, so I’m glad the European was added and now the incentive of the world title. Feels right. We was motivated anyway, but it just adds that extra bit for both of us. And yeah, everything I’ve got as always.”

Denzel Bentley

“Yeah, it’s nice, man,” said Bentley. “I’m grateful, I’m happy and I’ve got a job to do on December 7 before I think about anything that’s after. World title shots or whatever. There’s a man in front of me that’s very motivated and, you know, wants the same thing I do. So, got to go to work.”

Fight Prediction

Both fighters have spoken about how motivated they are and they should be. Not only are the British and European belts at stake, but a world title shot could also be forthcoming. On a number of occasions, Bentley’s power has won him fights early – including two second round stoppages this year alone. However, Pauls should have the ability and durability to overcome that power and ultimately win a decision on the scorecards.
