    Barker is apparently fighting Darren McDermott defending the commonwealth and in a final eliminator for Macklins British title.

    Think Barnes has to complete 1 or 2 fights until he fights under the hayemaker banner, not too sure.

    Witter was lined up to fight Branco for the Euro wasnt he but Branco pulled out?

    Gavin Rees was never offered a fight with Amir Khan despite what Warren says. He would have snapped his hand off if a formal offer was ever made. Typical Warren hot air. Has some contractual issues with Sports Network but is planning on ein back in the ring before the summer.

    Or did Witter get a better offer to fight the WBCs number 1 in an eliminator? I seem to remember that being a rumour?

    6) Colin Lynes is done and should retire.

    Barker needs to move on, he is well beyond McDermott and Macklin will vacate before fighting him. Macklin will want the fight but Warren will never allow it.

    Hatton's fighting the P4P#1 and Witter's nowhere to be seen. The story of their careers.

    David Barnes has been mixing with a very dodgy crowd in Manchester of late, not sure if that's anything to do with his inactivity though.
