    There is something to be gained if he stops him impressively. You said the same thing about Bellew's last fight, but that actually reflected well on him. :D

    This guys never been stopped but with Gavin's accuracy he has a good chance to be the first one.

    i agree mate we were gonna turn it down we wanted to fight someone from over here u get more credit an we know what there like he holds a first round stoppage over some one who took khan distance over 8 or 10 but then lost to him later on on points an he holds a first round ko over a former ebu lightweight champion but would still rather fight someone i know something about

    Don't worry about it, your still getting pushed more than all the other prospects Frank Warren has right now, so he obviously has a lot of confidence in you :good

    it has nothing to do with an average fight though both guys are working hard and actually trying to close the show.

    it's not a different game. it's combat and in combat people want to see a competative match up that results in a good tough fight.

    Whats happened with BJS ? Is he taking some time off to shed some weight and get down to a better weight ? No way he should be fighting that heavy !

    Nice one Frankie. I always think they bring these foreign guys over for financial reasons only but the benefits are limited, as you've said above- still do a number on him like Tony did and you'll get a good response. That last win was sensational, mostly due to the fact that we knew how good saville was going in. All the best anyway mate:good

    The problem is imo that keeping the "0" seems a lot more important in boxing than in mma.

    Winning record opponent, can't ask for much more this early.

    Sure I read in boxing news a while back that they were looking at Nigel Wright, Dean Harrison as possible opponents in the near future. Fighting those this soon would be very impressive.

    Yeah mate I was thinking more in the future, thats well impressive though that theyre knocking names like that about after you've only fought 4 times. Both of them British title challengers.

    The fight with Dean (alhough he got stopped recently and unsure on his futre) would be a intriguing one, local derby and all that, plus you've sparred aint u? Dunno if I'd want to see it though cos you've already outclassed one of our (Wolverhampton) hometown favourites! ha.

    Anyway mate good luck for the 5th keep doing what your doing, very impressive.

    Oh but I hope your football team lose Sunday :good

    i prefer the khan with a loss who now doesn't have to maintain the allure of invincibility. the undefeated khan was being managed too much. the khan with a loss has faced much better comp.

    bring on the losses. these losses clearly make fights grow and reassess their career in a good way.

    let em know you want these fights. find your level and be proud of it.

    don't let frank give you any wbu ****. thankfully he seems to have dropped that piece of ****. british, commonwealth, europe. you should be good enough for those and then you can really test yourself on the world stage.

    I totally agree with you mate its just a shame it seems the more casual fans, promoters, media etc still place too much impiortance on the "0".

    i think this stupid 0 obession is because of the amount of belts out there.Having a belt no longer means your a great fighter to casuals or the media so the 0 is seen as the mark of a great fighter
