    His weight suggests he isn't fat. His ko percentage suggests he is a boxer and has no pop.

    Not bad as a late replacement.

    Shame about Sprott but obviously understandable. Think it'll be too soon for a 4-0 fighter who's only fought people with losing records.

    skelton,fury,mcdermott are fine replacements which i am surprised havnt jumped at the oppurtunity.

    but a reaplcement who is willing and able is good news. good for him. a steve robinson maybe on a minor scale

    Too soon for Skelton or McDermott after their last fights at this stage of their careers and at their age.

    Fury is Hennassy's golden boy at the moment and I'm sure even if Fury wanted to he wouldn't be allowed.

    Fair play to the guy for jumping in there. Who has he got in the first round?

    ABA champion at middleweight, the lad must have grown a little since then.

    Can't be the same fighter ... The amateur Perkins is from Scouseland not a brummie.
