    When has anybody ever taken Frank Warren's ramblings as the truth?

    This is just another dig at the Calzaghe camp.

    Maybe these two will fight on Joe's promotion in March?

    I think Rhodes would give him a sound boxing lesson. Pryce looks overweight at LMW and has to wear his shorts extra high to hide his tummy.

    Mate you need to get your facts right before posting. Enzo mac was sparring with 2 heavies prior to the haye fight. Also, the only british gym in years to produce 3 world champions let their fighters down with their amateurish ways? :patsch

    Looking at rees record you have to wonder how the hell the wba even ranked him in the top 20. He was fighting 6 rounders then a world title fight :huh.

    When one considers that a fighter with as few KOs Willie Limond (who I think was past his peak when the fight occured) hurt Khan and almost had him out of there, it's a mystery as to why one of these fighters wouldn't accept the bout, just on the off chance that they catch him.

    A question of heart?

    I know Bradley posts on here occasionally as does Jamie Moore but I strongly feel that Moore is the best Light Middleweight in the country and by some distance. I don't like this thread, but I think Rob means well by it he just has a funny way of putting things. :good

    If you've taken my comment as one which is derogatory towards Limond, please don't, as it was anything but. He's a good boxer regardless of the lack of KO power. The inference was that perhaps the other ex-champion mentioned in this thread doesn't possess the desire to take a fight with Kahn.

    I think Moore is world class. I think Rhodes, while been one of my favourite fighter, is just below world class. But I think that a Pryce, Rhodes, Moore unification would be great viewing. All three fighters have demonstrated incredible longevity and the ability to rebound well from dips in form and setbacks. They are all very good fighters.

    Sorry Leif, I have not taken your comment that way at all. I was just intending to dispute the fact that Willie is A) Past his best and B) A non-puncher. He can crack and has scored a large amount of knockdowns in his career. He is a sharp puncher, if not a KO artist. I really hope 2009 see's him return to championship class.

    You think Pryce is up there with them ? I have always doubted Pryce.

    JT, did you ever have to wear your trunks as high as Pryce to head your tummy ?
