Aussie to fight Kenyan and the first poster with the story has Manchester against his location? How the hell?
Funny? A week has elapsed and nobody else is hearing anything :think What's the latest from Manchester ???
Either would De Mori by the sound of things. A few weeks ago he was claiming he'd be on the Stiverne vs Arreola undercard. But that fight is about 3 weeks away and not a word.
Klitchko v Leapai is now confirmed to be aired on ESPN so that is two big heavyweight fights in a couple of weeks getting great US/world exposure - with Leapai stating in a recent interview that De Mori was his toughest fight to date it would actually be an interesting storyline if Mark could get that undercard shot. Shame things don't happen that way. I think the problem is that because its a Goosen and Don King Co-promotion and all Goosens heavyweights already have their dance cards filled it will be very hard to put more heavyweights on that card. Its ESPN and there wont be much money left to throw around. Too bad - must suck even more than it used to be a Don King fighter these days - at least in the olden days he made his fighters some money so that he could steal from them - these days his fighters just sit on the shelf till they expire. Ahh well maybe one day we will De Mori in with a live dog but I wouldn't hold my breath.
Mark's next fight will be on the 23rd of May in Australia. Very unlikely to be against anyone who can hit back and forget Australians. He hasn't fought one since Johnny Wyborn knocked him out.
De Mori was claiming on Twitter he'd be on the Stiverne vs Arreola undercard. Looks more likely he will be on a May 23rd Chad Bennett undercard in Newcastle :roll:
Ochieng is down to fight David Rodriguez in Texas mid July. No mention of anything else for him on Boxrec at the moment.
