    He has no chance. Botha is unstoppable and he has a world title to prove it.

    WHITE BUFFALO!

    Kirby would give anyone an uncomfortable night, I would rather see Kirby fighting one of the english stars like Rogan, Now I think that is a winnable fight for him

    I've been a Botha fan for years, so if this fight materializes, I will undoubtedly root for him. I have never heard of this Kirby fella, what's his story my friends?

    :lol:

    I have to admit, I do have a soft spot for Botha, but I don't think he is or has ever been world champion material. He's just likeable, since he always puts up a decent fight and is so much tougher than he looks.

    Yeah the Lewis fight just showed the calibre of Lewis when he is up for it IMO. Kirby can be an uncomfortable night for anyone but Botha would be a big leap too

    :good Thanks for the info mate. Sounds like a rough and tough guy. I will have to research this further to see how a potential match up between him and Botha would go down.

    Very, very strong and un-orthodox - one of those guys whose demeanour outside of the ropes belie his fighting spirit. Botha would have to be a heavy favourite but you would not count him out against anyone
