    Just because you haven't seen or heard about the fighters he has fought since the Purdy fight, it doesn't mean that he hasn't fought 'anyone'...

    Colomban holds wins over Mosquera, Cabuy, Holiday, Heremaia and pushed a real top prospect/contender in Omotoso all the way in a losing effort. He was unbeaten in 10 fights, was world ranked and earned his right at a shot for the title.

    Uushona, whilst not having many notable names on his record (although he does hold wins over the very decent Nuumbembe a few years ago and Kotey), was a talented fighter as seen in his fight against Vassell. He certainly pushed Vassell harder than what the cards suggested.

    As far as I'm concerned, both fights were competitive. It's not exactly like the opposition Cleverly was given on his title run...And the four domestic fighters you suggested all lost their last fight, so they're so much more worthy at a crack at the title compared to the aforementioned :lol:

    And who gives a ****? Well, me for one. If he wants to fight British opposition all the time, then go for the British title. In no way should the Commonwealth title just be fought for between fighters from this country. There's a reason why the word 'Commonwealth' is in the titles name...I mean, I know all the 'world' titles in boxing are farcical, but lets not step there and make sure all historical lower titles are seen in the same light.

    I thought these too had got along well, I read a thread title about it being all friendly but didn't enter, I see it was sarcasm.

    I thought that, surely most people would try to keep that off a fight night show. Channel 5 will hopefully learn a few things. That advert for the trip to las vegas looked like something off a cheap shopping channel. You could even post in your answers.

    Just me being cynical or is Fury fabricating "depression" to create character?

    "Dislikes" maybe Kos. I was also around when he was active and he'd get ripped apart on this forum if he fought today.
