    It got cancelled a week or two ago. Rhodes fell ill and his trainer/manager felt it wasn't worth the risk as he would miss out on sparring going into the fight.

    Bunce was hinting that Rhodes had gotten an offer for a bigger fight.

    Sorry, maybe cancelled isint the right word. But from what small was saying on the boxing hour he sounded like its not a certainty that the fight will be moved to another date.

    Buncey was dropping some pretty big hints wasn't he about Rhodes having a bigger fight and there being no need to risk this one.
