    Pretty sure it was Sartisan for one of the WBA's interim bollocks

    Good decision. He has business to clear up in Britain and he needs more experience. World titles will come along down the line. No need to rush.

    Could have been or the 'regular' WBA champion Sartison. As silly as it sounds though this fight is much more appealing to the fans than either of the other 2

    He'd beat Stieglitz tomorrow. He took ten rounds to beat Velecky, who Bellew stopped inside a round.... the only decent fighter he's beaten is Orneilas, of course he beat Gevor but that was by DQ.

    Sartison isn't a clown by any means, in nearly 30 fights he's only ever lost to Kessler..... not a fight I'd pick for him right now.

    good decision. build the fanbase here and clear up business before moving on. no one cares about him calling himself a world champ for an interim belt when no real fan would consider him a champ. we will however consider him the legit british and commonwealth champ and the best 168 in the country.
