You do realise that Rob didn't rank the fighters, don't you, Ishy? I love these updates as it saves me looking them up so thanks for posting them again, Rob:good.
Thanks for that, I have tried their page a few times it always seemed to crash :fire Trying to work out who Clev will be facing (provided he gets past Courtney Fry) in his Euro fight. You can guess a number of them are obvious no's at this point. So my guess would be any of the following Nadjib Mohammedi will probably be the opponent even with his loss after all this is boxing and we all know that the governing bodies tend to be slow to change something like this. David Kostecki is a decent possibilty as are Antonio Brancalion and Rachid Kanfouah. An outside is Thierry Karl (who knocked out [FONT=Arial][FONT=Verdana]Nadjib Mohammedi)[/FONT] [/FONT]but according to box rec he has a fight scheduled for November. Wouldn't mind any of those to be honest all good tough tests for him.
