    Less than 4 weeks to go and still no word on Macca's opponent on the Calzaghe-Kessler undercard...

    Something tells me it won't be a very competitive defence. don't know what happened with all the talk of unification with cunningham.

    1 Marco Huck
    2 David Haye
    3 Johnathon Banks
    4 Vincenzo Cantatore
    5 Gregory Drozd
    6 Giacobbe Fragomeni
    7 Darnell Wilson
    8 Pietro Aurino
    9 O'Neil Bell
    10 Herbie Hide
    11 Alexander Alexeev
    12 Alexander Gurov
    13 Rudolf Kraj
    14 Rob Calloway
    15 Laudelino Barros

    my moneys on FW picking herbie hide who has somehow made it back into the top ten. i know he's ko'd 5 since coming back but the opposition has been **** poor

    Rob Calloway is my bet.

    He won again last weekend.

    Agree - Calloway for me. Hide cant come back to the UK as there is a warrant out for his arrest.

    At the end of the day its going to be a big dissapointment after a super performance against Braithwaite.

    Typical Frank. Talks big and then fails to really deliver.

    Frank puts on good bouts but we are talking about a man who has the power to OWN British boxing and having it absolutely thriving.

    sucka macca should better pray marco huck doesnt insist on fighting him. that would be one painfull experience for him:yep

    alexeev would do bad bad things to him as well.

    and kraj would kick his ass too.

    man, macca better keep his head down. he looks primed for a serious butkicking:yep

    Nice to see Marco Huck nuthuggers on this site, the kids' got a good bit of talent, though he's still rough around the edges, and a total headcase. :yep

    have to admit i haven't seen much about the euro cruiserweights except for cantatore, fragomeni and gurov who would probably be three of the easiest defences out there for macca.

    huck will be the next mandatory for the ibf title though won't he? never heard of alexeev

    I would like to see him in with Herbie just for the domestic match up. He will not be put in with a top guy such as Braithwaite or Calloway so the Herbie fight would make sense both for Macca and us watchers.

    It's a real shame - Enzo must be quite embarrased by all of this!

    Thought he was superb against braithwaite. Really improved since joining team Calzaghe.

    He just mopped the ring with Braithwaite, and Calloway is hardly a "top guy", though it would be an interesting fight for sure.
