    dunky you have got a serious problem mate,who the f**k are you to say limond doesn't want hard fights,willie would gladly box any of the above named boxers he simply needs to be given the chance,AA will need to rebuild himself at lightweight and hopefully not get thrown in as he was the first to admit his performance v cook wasn't good enough.

    the thing we normally complain about with frank warren world champions is that they do not do things properly and win domestic titles.

    Cook won the Commonwealth, British and European title. He got a deserved shot at feather but was weight drained. To be honest he did not deserve a world title fight against Arthur but fair play to him he won it.

    both arthur and cook are good european level fighters neither are true world class if either were to go in with a real top tier fighter they would have ktfo brutally! i like cook but he annoyed me the way he was calling out harrison and talking **** about him, fair does he got treated **** in the end but a mentally and physically fit harrison would have mauled him inside 3/4 rounds as would guzman to aa

    Nicky beat Alex fair and square!!, he stuck to his gameplan and didn't let Arthur get into his stride at all.

    I seem to remember Arthur was listless and seemed non-plussed by the whole thing.A weight issue maybe?

    It made me chuckle when he blamed home fighter bias by the judges though....like he didn't realise his performance just wasn't up to scratch.

    AA seems a top bloke btw.

    How do you think Arthur would do against Martinez?

    I think a 100% AA would beat Martinez if there were no weight issues but he'll never go back to super-feather so we need to see how he copes at lightweight. I still FW will get a world title shot for him against someone like Paulus Moses given the association between the two relevant promoters. The game ain't up for AA yet but he needs to get back to winning, winning well and fighting regularly as he can.
