A few updates. At Flyweight Lee Haskins is now the mandatory for Andrea Sarritzu the deadline for agreement is 14th February. At Super Bantamweight Jason Booth is now the mandatory for Rendall Munroe with a deadline for agreement set for 20th February. Be interesting to see what happens there. John Murray is the official challenger for Bouzianne and the deadline for purses is the 1st December, the fight between Bouzianne and McCalister has been taken off the schedule. Other potential fights that are going to purses are Paul McCloskey-Giussepe Lauri on 06/02/10 Ryan Rhodes-Christophe Canclaux on 10/12/09 but I don't think that will go ahead with Canclaux going up against Joachim Alcine soon.
I have updated the first post with the latest from all of the domestic bodies. There are a some very interesting updates with a number of interesting fights made and a few suprising developments.
some interesting domestic hw fights there :shock: i wonder how long fury is out for. i imagine when he recovers he'll be straight in line for a shot at one of the domestic titles
a few interesting ones there. matthew hall going straight into a ebu fight after losing to small.. ricky burns to fight for the vacant british....does that mean he's not getting the wbo shot? lee haskins to defend the superfly british title and then go for the euro flyweight title? i know its only 3lbs but whens the last time haskins fought at fly?
Thanks :good Purse bids called for Sykes-Burns :shock: Leva Kirakosyan is still knocking about at Euro level? Some really good domestic HW fights in the next year :happy
I think Frank doesn't want to waste time with fighters padding their records, he has a load of hot prospects coming through who soon could be headlining shows and doesn't really have time for fighters going nowhere so I think he would want Matt Hall to prove he is capable of fighting for major titles. I doubt Ricky will take that fight and will take the world title shot I think he was just the No.1 Contender, I expect to see Scott Lawton or Andy Morris made the opponent for Sykes. As for Lee Haskins he is just lucky that the Euro scene sucks at Flyweight I'm sure he will make the weight but it will be interesting to see how strong he is at that weight and how does against one of the few decent opperators.
