    Darnell,

    Sorry to hear the fight with Enzo Maccarinelli fell through.
    Perhaps Frank Warren thought you were too much of a risk, and quite rightly you pointed out that your not a big name in the UK. Sellers has a punchers chance, thats all. I don't think Enzo is as good as some people make out, but he's not as bad as others make him out to be either.

    From youtube clips I have seen, such as Nwodo, you look frightening, however, Enzo punches pretty hard too and has good boxing skills and could keep you at distance. I cannot see why FW would want to make a fight against you, high risk, low reward. Thats the way the cookie crumbles for now. You may get a title shot offered, but on terms you may not find acceptable. The David Haye fight fell through too.

    Why don't you chase a fight with former 2 time WBO Heavyweight Champion Herbie Hide? That would probably be a decent payday for you. Perhaps the WBO would rate the winner very highly in the rankings, since you are number 7 and Hide is number 8. Hide is pretty well known in the UK and is looking to move up the rankings quickly it seems.

    Would you take that fight in Germany, if it was an eliminator for the WBO title?

    Oh, and why "Ding a ling man" ? Because you ring opponents heads? :lol:

    Regards

    Hide wouldn't be a great fight for Ding. Hide isn't ranked in the top 40 by any of the other ABCs, so beating Hide wouldn't get him much any closer to a title shot. Also, frankly, Hide has one of the worst chins of any heavyweight titlist in history. If Ding landed a clean one on him, Hide might not wake up...

    Plus, I have a feeling that Universum will be protecting one of their newest assets from big punchers...

    How very, very true. :-(

    And to the original poster...Enzo has some pop, but not anywhere the pop Nwodo has and Ding WALKED through his shots. Darnell has ONE HELL OF A CHIN!!! Im surprised Zakman hasnt proposed marriage yet....:lol:

    Fact is, if Ding keeps winning, someone is going to HAVE to fight him. Hopefully its sooner rather than later!
