    Presumably to avoid Ivan Glazchin. English promoter should know more good english (scottish/welsh/etc...) or local figthers who they can trust to not bottle it or cave in after two good digs.

    Haha, cheers lad, better late than never ;)

    Carlos I wouldn't be surprised to see you matched with Gavin Reid, a tough guy but a bit(well maybe more than a bit) lacking in the skills department.

    Bam bam hit the nail in the head there. I should have said British or Irish rather than English. Hopefully get someone who's been in with other good prospects so I can compare my performance. It always looks good if you KO someone who's went the distance with a prospect

    Im still not sure if a defenite date has been set but I know it's either going to be the 4th or 11th June. Once they get the nod from sky then the tickets should go on sale soon after

    That Kimball article is bang on the money - at last someone has put this into perspective. How I am sick reading about Valero's loss to boxing etc. How about his family and the dubious questions to his health etc...

    Plus, I remember McGuigan calling for him to quit the ring after his last outing - warning of health dangers.....

    Lads - if anyone has Brian Magee's number - give him a quick call and do a piece on his thoughts on the Froch-Kessler fight. I would love to read his thoughts on this one.

    O'Hara bout in England
    22 April 2010 - By Cormac Campbell Kevin O'Hara's, 17-5 (5KO) British super-featherweight title fight against Gary Sykes will take place in England on May 28.
    The Sky Sports televised, Frank Maloney promoted show will be held in the Huddersfield Sports Centre.
    Sykes, 15-0 (4KO) claimed the title with a points victory over Andy Morris at the same venue in March.
    Belfast fight fans had been hopeful that the bout would form a Belfast double-header topped by British featherweight champion Martin Lindsay's second defence which is pencilled in for the city in early July.
