    I have good mates who are scousers. There is alot of animosity between mancs and scousers when it comes to sport but away from sport they generally get on well.

    I just don't like him because of what i know. Comes across as a good bloke but hes far from it believe me

    Elite at British level, possibly fringe European. Worse fighters have had world title shots imo.

    :deal

    After you listen to the toe2toe podcast for a while you soon realise even his "knowledge" is just the same drivel over and again. Every fighter somehow reminds him of Ezzard Charles or another murders row fighter. Final straw was this week when he in all seriousness tried to feed us the "Floyd let maidana hit him for the fans" line.

    If the likes of Rose can get a world title shot and paul smith can be on the verge of it then I suppose derry could get one, but for me he's between British and European level,
