    Not sure if this has been posted already, but Don is a 28 year old, former Commonwealth champ, miles better than anyone else you have below featherweight at the moment.

    He's pretty skilled, went off track due to eating and drinking a bit too much.
    Hopefully he can get things on track now he's emigrated. :thumbsup

    Hope the dirty soap dodging **** realises that we wash daily over here & expect a certain decorum attributed to a first world country, make sure he smartens himself up a bit

    Can you tell me what happened with Wilson listed as 12-3 but fighting for a Comonwealth title with a 0-3 record

    also how Did Broadhurst get the fight in the first place only fought 2 guys with winning record in 8 fights and gets a Title shot


    Then fights a 0-3 bloke then starts fight people with winning records and gets beat twice in a row

    very strange record there

    Well there is a lack of Commonwealth talent at super-fly so you don't have to be particularly good to get a title shot.

    As for the African guys he fought, I very much doubt their Boxrec records are accurate, pretty much every African fighter claims they have a different record to what is on Boxrec. I doubt a guy who is genuinely 0-3 is going to get a title shot.

    Also a lot of the smaller guys in Europe have poor records on paper due to being forced to fight guys way out of their league or in higher weight classes due to the lack of talent in Europe at fly/super-fly/bantam.

    Chris Edwards being a good example of this, much better than his record suggests.
