    He's a proper nugget too outside the ring.

    He's not really deserving but ain't going to begrudge him a shot, it's not as if it's the deepest division in boxing.

    He's past it now imo. I agree with TFFP. Feel a bit sorry for him in the respect that he was only able to boil down to cruiser when they upped the limit to 14st4lbs by which time he was too old and has lost his speed

    Hide's just been keeping busy. The fight before last was a favour to the promoter. 4 of his last 6 opponents lasting the distance shows he's not what he was, but he'll surely be in better form for his world title shot.

    Herbie is past it. I'll still be cheering for him though. He wud have destroyed him in his prime.

    Sulaiman has done a lot of good for boxing in regards to pioneering safety and other projects which is more than can be said for the others. He surely can't be a bigger tit than Gilberto Mendoza (WBA) who does his best to dilute an already ridiculous title picture with his three tier belt nonsense.
