Hide to fight for a world title!

Hide is going to get a 'hideing'

 

Doesn't he have an eliminator first with Matt Godfrey?

 

Caznt really see it happening, would be crazy if he pulled it off

 

I reckon he doesn't fancy going up against Godfrey, but at the same time I wouldn't pick him as favourite against either of these guys either. Fragomeni is someone he'd have trouble with too I think. Frag has a good chin and Herbie won't just be able to blast him out in 3 rounds like the other bums he's been fighting.

I think he's damaged goods really, and he's just about getting away with getting a bit of a career going at cruiserweight coz he's been matched cautiously. Once he comes up against someone approaching world class I think he gets knocked out. I don't trust Herbie to win a 12 round decision over anyone competent, not today, so if he fights someone who he can't just knock out in the first couple of rounds then he will lose.

 

hide has done really well thus far at CW shouldve got a shot earlier always in great shape, solid basics and a good punch, he could do it

 

2 weight world champ get in.

 

nobody liked my pun at the start

 

Nope, Hide's past it I'm afraid. He wasted his best years out of his depth in the heavyweights.

 

Awwww.

I suppose Hide might give some guys a few problems with his speed and power. But with a chin like his he won't last too long I think.

 

it was a terrible pun

 

chin up, mate.

 

He wasn't going to get 2 million guaranteed english pounds fighting cruiserweights in 1995.

Hide's purse for Bowe :deal

Herbie Hide is a very wealthy man

 

I wouldnt call winning a heavyweight title being out of his depth. Yes, he certainly wasnt on Bowe or Vitalis level, but the boy done good for a crusier with no chin.
