    Sounds good, hopefully negotations go well and they get in a good batch of top cruiserweights. I'm sure the contender editing team will be delighted if they manage to get Enzo Calzaghe on the show. :D

    Call him what you want but this man can fight, he has been at wildcard for the longest and beleive me the kid has skills.
    he was supposed to fight on FNF on June 13th but the fight got called off perhaps this is why. Though Freddy Roach told me it was due to his retina being detached. either way this kid can fight and beleive me he will impress

    At the inception of the cruiserwieght division I thought it was a GREAT idea. I mean think about it! Before there was a cruiser division a guy whose best wait was 185-190, for example, would have to go in with guys that were 212, 215, even 220+. I think Jerry Quarry was probably a good example of the need for this division. With a 200 pound limit Quarry would have been a damn killer! And how about Holyfield? I doubt if he could have accomplished what he did at HW without all the experience he gained at cruiser.

    However, this division has never really taken off the way I thought it would. A Contender series migh help bring some much deserved attention to it.

    Question, because I have not seen him fight other than the last bout. Does he still speak with an English accent or has he been americanised?

    "Although the field of fighters has not been signed, show executives are talking to promoters of several notable cruiserweights, with former undisputed champion O'Neil Bell the most prominent name among them... Others in the mix include Vadim Tokarev, B.J. Flores, Darnell "Ding-A-Ling Man" Wilson, Matt Godfrey, Johnathon Banks, Aaron Williams, Shawn Hawk, Emmanuel Nwodo, Ola Afolabi, Ehinomen Ehikhamenor and Mike Alexander."
    Now, that is an interesting line-up! If they can get even a few of those guys, I will be completely sold on the season.

    Ummm no. lol...

    Maybe Pawel or Janik but not Wlodarczyk.

    Wlodarczyk has a title shot secured pretty much, why would he waste his time going to that show. :nut

    After all he will be fighting the winner of Kraj vs Fragmetti. And we wil have 2 Polish World Cruiserweight Champions!
