    He's had one 6 round fight against a journeyman in over 2 years, that's the reality of it. If you think he's deserving of a title shot then good for you.

    Tbh i'm more interested to hear what happens back stage.

    Paul Cook & Nicky Cook vs Kevin and Alice (Kev's Mum). Could be fight of the night.

    give burns a break,at least both burns and cook will put on a better show than haye and at a fraction of the cost,it looks like the best show watten has put on in a while

    i doubt it,cook or burns are not in the same league as either haye or klit,this should be a easy night for burns:yep

    burns is fringe world class,aint seen nothing to say he is more ,YET,
    and cook is ex euro level,who very luckely won a WBO title:bbb

    I think BBC and ITV are less interest much like the average fans wholiterally dont know who the hell is champ for each division as there are so many straps up for grabs nowadays. If i ask you who is champion of spain in football you say Barcalona, if i ask you who is champion of wimbledon you say Novak Djokovic, if i ask you who is wbo light-middle-weight champ you would probably scratch your head (if your like me). I know alvarez, bundrage & cotto are all champs but dont know who is holder of which etc.

    Impossible to connect with man on the street with this ****, heck they thought klitschko was one man until the haye fight. its criminal really and promoters aiont exactly helping as they buy into this **** and recently we have inter-continental, interim, ordinary, super duper, recess, silver, diamond etc etc the bull**** goes on. There lies the problem in my honest opinion. 1 champ per divison would certainly help get bopxing back on itv/bbc as far as im concerned. Its common sense...

    Which is the lesser evil Billy ?

    Cook and then Adrien Broner at 130lbs or Robert Guerrero at lightweight?

    The tougher fights are surely coming at either weight :good
