    Max, I'm not talking about Ding. There are at least 25 better names in the Cruiserweight division that would have been available to fight this fight that have more credabilty than Sellers. Ding is just one of them. I happen to think that Macca would beat Ding 7 times out of 10 - they've had months and months to make a decent fight happen.

    Enzo needs to come out publicly and say he's disappointed in the choice of opponent if he's to convince me.

    Braithewaite was a shot fighter by the time Enzo got to him. Trust me. Warren wouldn't have let Wayne anywhere near Enzo if this wasn't the case. The promoters know these things. It's a win over a name fighter but it means nothing.

    The Bobby Gunn fight was bad but this is just ridiculous. Ezra Sellers is 39 years old, washed up, and basically 1 fight removed from a 3 year layoff. The WBO should strip this guy Enzo on principle (not that they have any). I hope some tough SOB works his way up to being Enzo's mandatory so we can see him backed in the corner.

    Warren is making Enzo look a compleat joke. I like Enzo and rate him highly enough that he would beat all the top guys at his weight apart from maybe Haye but Warren is making him look a total fool.

    What a joke of an opponent!

    http://www.boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=007726&cat=boxer

    His chin can be compared to Audleys
    He is nearly 40
    This will end up exactly the same as the Bobby Gunn Fight - 1st Round KO

    Im not even convinced Sellers will make the weight - he was 210lb for his last fight and througout his career has been over 200 on a few occasions

    You may get your wish when Sellers lands on the button. If this fossil can spoil Enzo`s coming out party boy wont that be a laugh. It was bad enough when he fought Billy Gunn some unknown fighter from the club circuit but i really fail to see how Warren can sell this. Its just his normal piffle. He protects his cash cows and his investments nothing out of the ordinary there.

    Max are you serious?!?!?!?! Bell would flatten Enzo thats real. His the hardest puncher in that division which has been attested to by many of his opponents. Bell has mixed in a much higher class.Enzo has world class power but thats where it ends. Even Haye would starch him inside of 5.

    Yes I am serious.

    Bell was lucky when he mixed with higher class. He was losing In those fights until he landed a good enough punch.

    Enzo's skill Is better.

    I think Haye would win but not as easy as It could of been a few months back.

    If Dale Brown could beat Bell than so would Enzo.

    This is a ****ing embarassment for boxing. Sellers is a semi-retired 40 year old with no chin and no right to be getting a title shot. Luckily however, he has a bit of class and big power. With any luck Sellers has enough left to starch Enzo and that'd serve Frank Warren right for choosing these fighters.

    When's he gonna learn! If you get beat by a good fighter its often better than beating a **** one!!! Being undeeated is not the be all and end all in boxing, thats why I respect Haye. I can see Haye losing a few fights at heavyweight, but I dont think that diminishes him one bit, coz at least he gave us value for money.

    Not defending Sellers as an oppponent but didn't Braithwaite have two years of Inactivity and came back with a journeymen win too? How was that any different and credible for Enzo?

    well your right, the Braithwaite win gets more credbility than it deserves. He was practically retired, well past his best, basically an journeyman but with some name recognition at that stage in his career. But Ezra Sellers is even older, even more shot, even more retired and wasnt as good as Braithwaite was anyway. They're both pretty poor opponents for someone masquerading as a "world" champion.

    These are just the type of bums that Johnny Nelson made a career fighting, instead of him going on to fight Vasily jirov or Juan Carlos gomez. And just like Johnny Enzo may well retire without every having faced the top man in his division, just happy to have made plenty of money and not take any risks.

    Hate this because Enzo's the real deal and Calzaghe has Improved him. Plus If Haye doesn't beat Mormeck because of the weight, then I don't doubt Enzo would spark Mormeck out.

    yes he did, that was a handpicked opponent too. Macarineii is an egg-chinned joke.
