    i was very impressed with herbie's performance against mikhail nasyrov, he looked very sharpe, quick reflexes, fast hands and a great jab. does anybody know who herbies fighting next? and does anybody think hide will win or be capable of winning against any of the world champions? thankyou, regards herbie hides biggest fan

    He's be a handful for anyone, even at this point in his career.

    aslong as herbie keeps on winning then at some point he'll have to fight enzo. if enzo loses the fight to haye, i can see this happening much sooner. if he wins the haye fight then i imagine he'll be lining up big money fights stateside with someone like cunningham.

    I would have loved to see him fight Danny Williams. I think that would have been a good fight while it lasted. He missed out on the domestic heavyweight action. I worry about his chin. However, he does have good power and his latest victory was impressive. I just don't know if he has a strong enough mentality or even enough left to win a world title.

    It'll be interesting to see where he's rated the next time the WBC put out their rankings. Herbie may not be an awful long way away from getting himself into a mandatory position, and then he'll have to fight a belt-holder.

    A keep-busy fight in the meantime would probably be a good idea. Best not to let Herbie have too much free time on his hands! ;)

    I'm beginning to remember how he totally bottled it when the Williams fight was there.

    He was at his enigmatic best last time out, looks great at cruiser

    He could be a major player there, as long as he hits the other bloke first ;)

    will get KOed as soon as he fights someone good, that russian looked fat , and if he lost weight would have only been a super-middle, it was not a good win for chinny herbie.

    Absolutley ! Hide has talent , hes real quick he hits real hard but his chin is questionable and he's a f**king mentalist. He'll throw it away somehow

    He has a horrendous chin problem. If he could take a shot he'd be a right handful.

    He has lost the bounce he had early on in his career. He used to have a spring in his step and could deliver some terrific KO punches. After his brother died he went a bit off the rails and has never been the same.

    Apparently http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=194447605 is his space. He writes ""I sparred with Virgil Hill in Las Vegas, and I beat him up so hard, every time he hears my name, his nose starts to bleed.""
