    I've only heard three names mentioned by Frank ****** in the last 3 months

    Mosley, Cotto and Kell Brook

    Can't wait to find out who it is....

    Embarrassing that he can be considered a world champion.

    Can't knock his work rate though- 22 fights and he's only just turned 19!

    Yep, now confirmed.

    Haven't seen him fight. Sturm stopped him which doesn't tell us much. He's Euro champ which also doesn't tell us much

    This highlights the problem with the governing bodies having international/intercontinental/silver belts. The people that are fighting for them usually haven't even won domestic titles, yet by winning one of these phony belts their highly ranked and can get a crack at a world title. Prime examples include:

    Tommy Langford
    Jack Catterall
    John wayne Hibbert who's now fighting for the wbc silver title
    Charlie Edwards
    Martin Ward
    Robbie Davis JNR

    All are ranked with world governing bodies without winning a british title, hence why we get mismatches at world title level

    Great post - Hibbert was getting schooled by Ryan, who hurt his back and then the fight had to be stopped - with Hibbert celebrating like he just starched him. Martin Ward could cure insomnia, and didn't Charlie Edwards swerve fighting Andrew Selby?

    I know everyone was waiting for Liam to fight a big name and we have a big name in Predrag Radosevic, quite a few letters in that name. Strange how the tickets go on sale before the opponent is named. Cotto denies Liverpool again shucks!
