Seems Anderson is enjoying life under Shannon. Whose corner will Shannon be in though when he fights Nuumbembe again??? http://www.sportinglife.com/boxing/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=boxing/07/08/09/BOXING_Anderson_Manchester.html
Call me cynical but I am not sure that Ando and Nuumbembee will fight again. If you are being trained by the same trainer presumably they might even be sparring together so why would they fight. Hell they might even have become friends by now. I must admit after my previous debates with Top Dog and Dunky I am now keen on Ando and watch out for him. It will be interesting to see him and Matthew Hatton. I favour Ando as he is strong lad with some ability and a good chin. Still not sure if he can progress beyond European level as I hear Osei Bonsu is a bit of monster.
Believe Ali is gonna fight gary Young next. Hopefuly going to get an interview with him over the next couple of weeks.
Ali will ko gary young...he seems to have been pro for a while now and has not even done anything yet...been fighting journeymen for years and when he did step up it was over within 20seconds agaist Colin McNeil
I don't think monsters possess chins as suspect as his . The guy can certainly punch though . I'd also be interested in who Olusegun may be fighting next , I presume it will be a defense of his commonwealth title(unless it's a 6/8 rounder stay busy fight) ?
I'd imagine, if Ali is anything to go by, Sky will only be interested in Ajose if he is fighting a british opponent.
Top Dog and Big Ears nothing signed yet though I expect it will be October as opposed to September. Things are delayed after what happened to Big James Oyebola who was Ajose's boxing manager. I have heard Lynes has been ordered to defend the British title against David Barnes. This is an intriguing one as I am not sure how Barnes is fighting these days. Lately I have seen him in a few meaningless fights which I cannot read to much into. Ajose is now in the WBC top 10 ratings so we can defend the commonwealth title or take out someone higher in the ratings like Lazcano or Demetrius Hopkins. Mind you after watching some of the Welterweight wotrld title fights e.g. Williams vs Margarito, Cotto vs Judah, Cintron VS Matthyse I know Ajose knows he can shake up the Welterweight division as well so interesting possibilities.
You are probably right but the obvious one is Colin Lynes but I am not sure he will take the fight this time. We would happily take it however you never know. I am impressed with Lynes last performance against Muttley and his confidence must be Sky high.
Can you ask Ali why a fight with Matthew Hatton fell through. Unless I am mistaken his promoter Frank Maloney said he would try and make the fight after the Anderson fight. Lynes versus Barnes is a good matchup as both have decent skills. I do respect Lynes, but he is a bit limited at times and I think that Ajose would work him out and perhaps even stop him.
Rich - I will ask. Barnes is training with Shannon too now isnt he. So BArnes, Ali and Ando all there - good sparring to be had !
Exactly so it is unlikely that they would fight each other as they have all probably become good mates by now. I remember that when Ajose stopped Nuumbembee Barnes came in with Nuumbembee and was in his corner that night.
Hi Olu, I thought after Lynes won last time out the doors would be open for Ajose, but it looks as if your man will get frozen out, I reckon Lynes and his team will look at Ajose as a far too dangerous fight. I'm interested to see Ajose in with a big name welterweight, I await with baited breath:thumbsup
