We analyse the credentials and statistics of Cameron Vuong and Gavin Gwynne as the pair get set to contest a true master versus apprentice battle on the undercard of Sunny Edwards' bout against Galal Yafai this weekend.

Boxing is a unique sport in many ways and throws up a number of cliches and phrases that is unmatched by any other.

Fighters are interviewed more than ever and you could be forgiven for thinking they have a handbook of phrases next to them such are the similarities in their answers.

“Styles make fights,” “A puncher’s chance,” and “Sparring’s sparring” are just three from a number that doesn’t bear contemplating.

Cameron Vuong v Gavin Gwynne has its own, too.

“All of the smoke,” applies to Vuong who has been asking for a testing fight despite only having fought six times.

“Teak tough” and “Father time” applies to Gwynne who despite an over-achieving career is reaching the end.

So will the young upstart continue on his march to stardom or can the Welsh veteran come good in the “last chance saloon”?

Let’s look at the Tale of The Tape...

Cameron Vuong - In Profile

Cameron Vuong doesn’t want to be known as a prospect any longer.

And while a win against Gavin Gwynne will remove that label there may still be question marks over his place in the 135lbs division.

Gwynne, 34, has had a tough career despite it only being 21 fights old.

His performance against Mark Chamberlain in March suggested time was up for the former British and European lightweight champion.

Vuong and his team are getting Gwynne just as he’s opened the door to leave behind a memorable career - it’s the type of matchmaking we’re accustomed to seeing.

An amateur standout from the famous Birtley Boxing Club, Vuong had been left frustrated at a grudge match against Jordan Flynn falling through and called for Gwynne after beating Joe Underwood Hughes last time out.

His speed of shot could spell trouble for Gwynne early on in the contest particularly if the flashy Vuong lands something of note.

Beating the 34-year-old will look good on his record but there is a danger it could create a false expectation around the youngster.

More will be known after his fight on Saturday night.

Strengths:	Weaknesses:
Forces opponents into mistakes	Inexperience
Body shots	Carries hands low
Punches from various angles	Overconfidence
Spiteful puncher	Lacks one-punch power

Gavin Gwynne - In Profile

As soon as Mark Chamberlain began connecting with his long powerful shots against Gavin Gwynne, it was when not if the Welshman would succumb to the shots.

His trainer Tony Borg rightly threw in the towel in round four to save his charge from further punishment.

Eight months on and Gwynne will once again go in and face a lightweight talent tipped for big things.

Now training with Gary Lockett there is little expectation that Gwynne can cause an upset which is reflected in his big outsider price which is remarkable given the fact it’s only been a year since he won British and European titles.

For the Welshman to stand any chance his punch resistance will be super important.

If he can absorb what Vuong lands and force him back with his size and inside work then Gwynne may have a chance.

Getting into the second half of the fight will be key to his prospects as well.

It may be an uphill battle as soon as the first bell sounds and it won’t take long before we find out how much the underdog still has to offer.

Strengths:	Weaknesses:
Experience	Mileage
Height and reach	Punch resistance
Pressure fighting	Vulnerable to uppercuts
Punch output	Prone to cuts and swelling
