    This looks more and more likely to get the go ahead for Elland Road in May.

    Not a fan of throwing every fight into a stadium but what a scrap this would be. 1

    Fancy Warrington will have too much for SS, the Galahad fight probably will scew people towards SS.

    Maybe shakur or maybe can xu. Either way, there's a big possibility for a unification at E.R next may.

    Would they go for Can Xu at Elland Road?

    Afaik they were already in talks with him and G.B, before shakur won the wbo. It is a unification and Xu is now the superchamp, he has a fight with Robles next Sat 23rd but if he comes through that afaik it's Xu for a unification at E.R but that was a couple of weeks ago when I heard that.
    Maybe TBC has more updated information.

    I’m not sure how I’d lean on this one. Stevenson should be favourite, but Warrington has been on a very good run and is underrated imo. At this exact moment though, I’d favour Stevenson

    Can’t stand Stevenson, so hope Josh does a number on the guy.

    If Warrington brings the same intensity that he brought to the Frampton fight, I’d fancy him to do the job.

    Stevenson will school the **** out of and most likely ko a busted up Warrington late.

    Warrington exemplifies the spirited but ultimately lacking in skills British plodder

    But Stevenson isn't a shot to bits Frampton and he will find Warrington a nice canvas to paint a work of art on.

    Warrington and sky will give it the big'un all week about how Stevenson will freeze, "how will the young brash American cope in hostile territory" by the fights end Adam Smith will change his tune and be talking about names like Hagler, Leonard and even Floyd Mayweather. I've seen this script play put you see.

    I hope Warrington uncultured football fans boo the anthem, that always leads to a more brutal beat down by the American opponents.

    Stevenson couldn’t put a dent in that woman he was wailing on, he isn’t stopping Warrington.

    Warrington is a massive step up for the goofy mouthed one.

    No just reading between the lines on a few things. So a guess up and wishful thinking

    Lol, you're right, he didn't even make a dent in that woman he got caught beating on. That's funny.

    If the Xu unification falls through I'm sure shakur will be next on Warrington list.

    Warrington was off to Vegas for his fans, "I know some right nutters". Instead he boxed the world's no.118 in Leeds.
    I'll believe this when I see it.

    Warrington - I hated him and his whole chavvy act but underneath it all he's a decent person and a great boxer

    Stevesnson - You can have all the talent in the World but if you're a pr!ck it doesn't matter. I really dislike him and would love to see him take a beating.
