    Finally moving to Lightweight!

    Hopefully this will reinvigorate the Amazing one! I reckon AAA will clean up in the UK quick smart, beat Thaxton for Euro, then embark upon a glorious faliure in the world scene!:happy

    If only this had happened 2/3 years ago!

    Alex Arhur is crap. He needs to move his head for starters. I used to rate him but he performances have conitued to baffle me. He is a very one dimensional fighter.

    Yeah, I agree. Alex Arhur is crap. Alex Arthur may be fringe world class though!

    I think he was fringe world class in his prime, these days I doubt it. Him and Thaxton would be interesting, neither are going anywhere at world level with the quality there is at lightweight at the moment.

    Yep. Arthur should have moved up to lightweight 3 years ago. I still think he can do the business inside the ring and could give us a few very interesting fights over the next year or two. I wonder if he will be kept away from Thaxton, Murray and Khan or that we may get to see some top class domestic scraps in the division.

    Did Arthur even have a prime?

    He's an okay fighter, but nothing like as good as he thought he was. But at least he's at lightweight where he can fight good domestic matchups with Murray, Thaxton, Khan etc. He was milling around fighting European nobodies at 130.

    if arthur is serious about being a world title fights he cant afford to wait around .he should be pushed in with the likes of thaxton at the least.He has to target the big boys,and im not talkijng domestically.if he is serious there is no other way for him .

    Arthur v Khan soon perhaps? Any chance of Fwankie letting that happen?

    Only when he's sure he can't wring any more decent paydays out of Arthur.
