David Price, Jamie Moore, Michael Jennings, Derry Mathews haha, I remember it was a big shock when the little Choi fella battered him from pillar to post! Then that Martin Lindsay ko.... ooof. Kevin Mitchell although, what a fight he put up vs Linares. A bit unlucky but them punches were caused by punches so fair.
Channel 5 and Big Mick are our only hope, even if Hearn tried it he'd make a hash of it with 30 year olds being billed as Next Gen and 90/10 fights.
I think a lot of it comes down to the backing. Watch Charlie Edwards and Andrew Selby fights, one became a World Champion, the others life is in a complete mess after his career didn't just go off the rails but off the bridge and into the river. Only one was exciting to watch and it wasn't the one guided with Hearn money.
Swifty smith,honestly thought he was going all the way but fell short at world level by quite some way. with regards to napa i always thought as ridiculous as it sounds that he was far too small at fly and should of been at least a weight division lower and he certainly had no business up at banter. But theres obviously no money down at them weights which is why he did what he did.
No I agree with that..he was tiny at the weight..I was gonna put same thing in my post...size difference with him n McDonell and Stuart hall
