    Klassen is the biggest fly in the ointment for Willie on that list IMO although Zappa could be interesting. Malcolm has a whole bag of tricks and whilst not being a puncher he is very tricky - ignore the dissenting vote Klassen ran rings around Gairy that night.
    Vic's manager Elias Nasser is no relation to Khoder; he is the brother of Jamal Vic's strength and conditioning coach and a very cluey bloke as well as being a gent

    In order for Kicket v Zappa to occur, both camps need to agree on the weight at which they will fight. I'm hearing Kicket wants the fight at 59kg and Lenny wants 61kg.

    Atleast they are talking. It's a start.

    Yep sounds good to me.:good
    Zappa was well under Lightweight last night anyways.
    I couldnt see how 60kg would be an issue.

    Probably accurate to say that the scales used for last nights show were not accurate. lol

    Lenny has a fight on his hands to get to 61kg. Better that you believe Lenny was closer to 63.4 kg the other night at the weigh in.

    I thought it was funny Couser weighed in 20 pounds less than his last fight and that was only a month ago.

    Awad dropped about the same in a month.

    Even Sol was at his lightest since before he took that break off.

    Cerniza was 60.8. He wouldn't make that if he chopped off a leg. lol

    or u could look at it this way, they are all young, have a three way life long war, all fight each other now, then maybe 3 years later , like the old days, whenever they needed a fight , just call one another out............... im dreamin but i love the sound of it

    Im hearing the bulid it up arguement and I understand where its coming from.
    But I heard that a year ago, back then they wanted to build it up for a fight about now, now its going be next year, then how long? They could all loose by then and we could be robbed of a fight when all 3 are young, unbeaten and hungry, which can be the best time to see these types of fights. And can be the best time for them to happen, a loss doesnt mean the end of the world when you young and coming up.

    Dib wont fight either for just about anything right now. I think he expects bigger things to happen for him, even though he is very lucky that winning a minor title has happened for him at all.

    I do think Wille wants Zapp and Zapp wants Willie but there are obviously some snags. Lenny isnt ranked by any of the major bodies, Willie is about to be ranked relatively high in a division that Lenny says he cant make. So I guess you can see why Willie would be wary to risk that by fighting at Lenny's weight.

    A while back, with Lenny's am pedigree, Lenny had the better resume. Now it is firmly in Willie's favour with his last two victories.

    My preference, as fan, is have for each to have two or three more fights each at the most and then get it on early 09. Before the footy seasons start so as to get a wider audience. Thats still nearly 6 months away.
    By then who knows what Dib will be doing..a loss puts him in the picture. More wins I think he will price himself out and look to lift his profile elsewhere

    I never saw this coming. I didn't even know Willy was on the card.

    I guess Kickets camp and Jamie Myer Promotions had some work to do to find an opponent and that's why it came out of the blue...other than Ippy giving us the heads up and checking boxrec, I wouldn't have even known Kicket was fighting.

    The kid stays active that's for sure.

    Good for him to stay busy and get some exposure.
