    I heard this mentioned on ITV4. I don't see anyone in Britain touching him, but would prefer him to pick up a European belt first

    Erdei is clearly a winnable fight if FW gets home advantage

    not for at least another year, already started a thread on this, i think he should fight a few former world title challangers. If Woods looses get him in the ring to.

    It was a really entertaining fight. MacIntosh was game throughout.
    Knockdowns in a few rounds, Cleverly seems to have good timing if not really heavy hands. He's a big bloke but very trim, his future is looking increasingly bright. A few more fights perhaps European, then maybe Frank can pull a few strings with the WBO.

    That's what I think too but Woods may retire if he loses to Cloud. Great potential fight all the same though.

    Thinking about it.... if Woods DID beat Cloud and Clevely won the WBO title in the next year (rightfully or wrongfully) then it would make one hell of a all British unification fight wouldn't it?

    Great fight for the fans. Mcintosh tried his best but just didn't have the ability to beat him.

    i felt if mcintosh was willin to throw combinations he would of stood a chance because he did take cleverly out of his game plan but more props to cleverly for fighting like that and being succesful def a european title before a world title test the water first
