Good answer :nut

I just expect better for a British title fight than an opponent with six KO losses, and hardly any good wins since his first defeat about four years ago.

Nothing against Derry at all, but he's really not all that. A weak chin, a dislike for pressure fighters and a ****ed nose.

The division isn't exactly stacked, but they could have gotten someone better. I'm sure a good super feather like Sykes would have took it, or Buckland perhaps, he struggles getting fights.

Watson was an alright opponent and Limond would have been if he'd tried, but Mathews shouldn't really be in the mix without a consistent run of victories over some decent contenders.

I think it's a solid match up, who else is out there at lightweight for Crolla?

Gary Sykes knows what happens in a Crolla rematch, thats why he ducked him, thats why Crolla now a lightweight!
