    Bingo!! :good

    Olusegun is not half as good as he's made out to be. A quality counterpuncher, a quality boxer period will take him to school.

    hopefully mccloskeys straight punches and counter-puncher style will be the medicine required!

    Godfather Ajose is the undefeated and undisputed Nigerian, African Boxing Union, British Empire Commonwealth(a belt Witter held and Ajose was his mandatory who he refused to fight) and WBF Intercontinental champion and soon to the British, European and WBC champion. I don't think much of fighters who avoid opponents. Sugar Ray Leonard and Ali might have preferred not to fight Hearns and Foreman and Benn may actually have not preferred to fight McClellan but they did and the won. Guys like Witter make mistakes. They thought Badley was nothing and got their arse kicked deservedly.

    Wishful thinking. Lets hope McCloskey shares your confidence.

    You would wish for such wouldn't you. Unfortunately your wish will not come true. The difference between us is that I only wish the fight actually gets made so that McCloskey can be given the Ajose 1st class experience.

    I must say you are a very loyal fan but your argument simply isnt backed up with much sense. Where are you going with this?? WBF Intercontinential title?? African Boxing Union?? Soon to be British, European and WBC champ?? Comon now mate lets be sensible. Ajose brings no weight to the table so there is no way he is gona get a shot at WBC title. He has missed the plane I'm afraid. Talk is very cheap. He does alot of it.

    What a shame.
    AO now in his 30th year and still no sign of THE big fight he needs.
    His career is surely going down the toilet, and it has to be the fault of that pint sized little oaf Maloney, unless anyone on here knows anything different?

    No it's just because he's complete average.

    In this 140 division he has 0% chance of doing anything.

    Plus the fact that he hasn't exactly got a fan base - if Olusegun was in any world title fight (even a European title fight - not that he could be, I don't think :yep) you know he would have to be the 'away' fighter; imagine Olusegun vs Urango in the UK - about 200 people would show up for it! Thats why, IMO, Maloney likes keeping him at domestic level - means he can match Olu with a UK fighter as the headline fight (with the UK fighter being the draw) or stick him on the undercard.

    Still, I wish him all the best! :good
