    Just read in today's Boxing News that Booth has took this fight on February 18th. Vacant WBC International Title :)dead) will be on the line.

    "2 Smooth" is saying 2012 will be his last as a pro boxer.

    Anyway, boxrec'd the card and it's got Chris Eubank Jr. and Phil Fury on the undercard with Channel 5 as the TV channel.

    I thought Booth was done after the Quinn fight, didn't he say he was retiring post fight?

    Booth: "I'm going to fight for another year and then call it a day. I wish I could box forever but there comes a time when you have to start thinking about your health. Originally I turned down the Galahad fight down.

    However, after thinking about it further, I decided to take, as title shots don't come around all the time. I've got just under four weeks to prepare for the bout, which is fine at my age"

    I'll just pretend my TV is a microwave like that advert from the 90's. Problem is nowadays that you don't normally get 42" flatscreen microwaves mounted on your wall. ;-)

    Should be an interesting fight. Booth had no business at 122. Such a shame he is over the hill. Galahad should take this on points.

    Would imagine they get timed so they don't clash
