    Big fight in the making for crolla on april 19th in manchester so hopefully he comes through this unscathed. Simmo is dangerous though in my opinion and has had plenty of notice for this fight unlike the coyle fight

    Who should simpson be fighting then, at this stage of his career he will see this as 1 final chance to get back in the mix, hes had plenty of notice that hes been boxing on this bill. He doesnt deserve a fight with crolla, theres plenty ahead of him in the queue. Daft comment really hes been gifted a chance in front of his home crowd

    Even Hearn said that Simpson wasn't a lightweight after he lost to Coyle. So how about fighting someone at his preferred weight? That would be a decent start no?

    Like someone said earlier, he didnt have to accept. He pushed for this fight.

    Crolla will be too strong as Simpson isn't a lightweight. I know Crolla isn't a big lightweight himself, but he's grown into the weight well unlike Simpson.
    I hope i'm wrong though and Simpson can pull it off, but it's a big big ask.

    Got nothing on George Groves...

    Good fight this though, be better if Simpson had a full camp but will still be tough for Crolla and maybe even too tough.
