I was told there has not been a Northern Area title fight at any weight for over 5 years? If this is true, why not? Are Masters titles etc taking away from Area belts. Southern Area belts are more active. The Northern Area should merge with the Central Area Chris Burton & Tony Jeffries could easily get a first professional title - why aren't fighters taking advantage?
I'm sure "northern" fighters (more Manchester areas thinking back to be honest) have fought for Central Area titles recently haven't they? I thought they'd scrapped the Northern ones tbh and were just using Central/Midlands/Southern. Seen some great fights for Midlands straps round this way, I'm a fan of the Area titles myself.
