    I do believe lee Haskins has paid his dues and deserves a world title shot.

    Would he be better chasing Jamie McDonnell or if butler wins his dropping back down to super fly as it is only 3lbs. Either way he deserves a go!

    He has been avoided for many years due to his southpaw very unpredictable style and he can bang a bit for the lower weights.

    31 wins and only 13 by KO, so he doesn't bang at all really, I wouldn't advise him going after either to be honest as there are other fighters more suited to him. McDonnell is too big and rangy for him and Butler is too talented. Probably does deserve a shot but he would be making a mistake by taking the fights against these guys.

    He'd put on a clinic against McDonnell. Would never make super fly. Atleast deserves his shot

    I believe butler beats him but I could see him upsetting McDonnell

    Yeah but look how much McDonnell has improved though! He gets better as his opposition does too and that's the most impressive thing, I also think his brother does the same too.

    Oh yeah of course pal, but I just don't see it as the best career move for Haskins.

    What the **** are you talking about? Are you just trying to find all of my comments on the forum just to talk absolute **** and not actually make any boxing related comments? You must be about 12 years old looking at the maturity of your comments, sad little ****!

    Yeah in a unification.

    Haskins is a tough fight for little money, I can't see anyone fighting him voluntarily.

    Haskins is in a tricky situation as always, hes No.3 with the wbc but doesnt have that financial backing to support him from a promotional stance, although ch 5 may help. He deserves his chance for sure though
