    Hopefully.

    Paul David doesn't deserve a shot anyway, DeGale is a more deserving candidate.

    with smith being ranked 5 by wbo he will not in my opinion fight degale and risk the ranking

    I doubt he will fight Degale. He want's one more easy defence so he can keep his title for good. Would be very suprised if Warren made this fight.

    Glad i didnt buy my ticket i dare i say i dont think tickets were going that well as i could still get virtually front row seats the other day on the echo website.

    Either Smith Degale or Smith world title fight this is big news either way imo

    I think Warren knows Smith aint world class, why would he be worried about putting this fight together?

    De Gale is too good for Smith.

    To move fighters onto the December 11th bill?

    Warren seemed certain the Liverpool card was going to go ahead last Friday after the Bellew fight. I hope he wasn't telling fibs....you know how that upsets people....;)

    Stielglitz versus Smith isn't the big news Frankie hinted at on the December 11th bill is it?

    I wouldn't have thought so but, IF the Echo is cancelled, that seems more likely than DeGale, for me.

    No it can't be because he said something along the lines of 'it will rejuvinate British boxing and make everyone buy a ticket'.

    Reckon its more likley he has got Smith a title shot and it will be DeGale vs David for the vacant title....which is bull**** as Anderson, Quigley and Groves deserve there shot more.
