Both Peter McGrail and Jazza Dickens opponents reveal they're going for the stoppage
Peter McGrail delivered a chilling big fight prediction when he came face-to-face with Alexander Espinoza for the first time ahead of Probellum Liverpool II.
World-champion-in-the-making McGrail, 26 from Liverpool, headlines a packed card at the Eventim Olympia on Saturday night, October 15, and has vowed to make light work of the hardest fight of his professional career, in front of his raucous fans.
The co-main event sees Jazza Dickens face dangerman Lerato Dlamini for the vacant IBO world featherweight title and the pair exchanged pre-fight barbs at Thursday’s press conference.
A confident Dlamini told host Ali Drew that he plans to cause a major upset and KO his rival, which prompted Dickens to ditch the pleasantries and set the South African straight.

Super bantamweight star, Peter McGrail said: “I see a one-sided fight, with me hitting him loads and him not hitting me much at all.
“I hope his training camp has gone well and good luck to him on Saturday night, because he is going to need it.”
Trained by Paul Stevenson at the Everton Red Triangle gym, McGrail shares the card with younger brother Joe. The talented southpaw has won four fights with three knockouts so far in the pro ranks, which follows an amateur career that saw him collect Commonwealth Games and European Championships gold and World bronze medals.
Alexander Espinoza, known as 'Supernova', said: “I won’t say a round in which this fight will end but it is all about me and I am going to be the winner. I can promise everyone a good fight.”
'Lights Out' Lerato Dlamini said: “I think I am going to stop Jazza in the later rounds.
“I won’t get a decision in his backyard, so I think I am going to stop him.”
Jazza Dickens, a two-time world title challenger, replied: “I was going to welcome him to Liverpool but now he’s going home with a bandage on his head! I see me getting my arm raised and getting this win in front of a crazy crowd here in Liverpool.”
