Unification fight for the IBF and WBC titles. This would be one for the purists.

Selby in an 8-4/7-5 type decision. I can see GRJr winning some rounds, especially early with his style, but Selby will slow him down with body shots and get his timing and turn the fight around and have GRJr chasing shadows at times

People should know that while Russell has tremendous hand-speed, his feet aren't very quick.
If he can't get close, his handspeed is useless.

Selby to win, his height, reach and movement will nullify Russells speed

Selby wins this.

SKY calling him the Welsh Mayweather, nearly made me put my foot through the TV.
