    He would be a great opponent for Liam Smith

    It would be a massive steal to sign him up before he flies home

    Jones would be a step up in competition and the most reputable name on Smith's resume should FW make it happen.

    FW wouldn't risk it...he's already treading on thin ice with what he's got left.

    Maybe a little too soon for Liam - though would be a massive measuring stick!

    Throw him too the wolves As it is!

    Jones is a WW who hearn hand picked for an easy nights work. Liam should be looking at fighting a legit LMW.

    I agree but FW has 2-3 weeks to find a suitable opponent and produce a fight for Liam which holds some weight.

    Jones has a decent reputation over here and does come to fight.

    think hes fought most of his career at ww, so he shouldn't have too many issues making the weight

    doubt the rose fight took much out of him. Carsons looking for a few paydays, and a return fight vs rose + smith should get him a few quid.
