Should Maccarioneli face Norton?

    Rob Norton is the ideal return opponent with meaningful belts on offer. A victory there Huck afterwards for the Euro strap. Then we can talk about World Crowns

    Don't think so Norton offers Macca nothing really. He beats him he stays in the same spot as he was in the WBO rankings.

    Macca just needs an easy enough fight to get his confidence then take on one of the WBO title holders. I think Ramirez would be an easier choice than Ola then take Ola on later on.

    You seen any of Lebedev LHL, you see him as an easy fight??

    If Enzo does win this it wouldnt suprise me at all if he gets a shot at Ramirez before Ofalobi, which would be a shame.

    This is what Enzo is up against if he hopes to reclaim his old title...

    Lebedev:

    Ramirez:

    Cheers for the vids mate.

    Lebedev seems OK to me, decent enough speed for a crusierweight with a bit of power, comp was awful in those vids though. can't see Enzo having too much trouble landing on him....have to wait and see of this new trainer has a positive effect on him.

    I saw the Ramirez-Alexeev fight previously and he is one tough mofo thats for sure, have to wait and see how Enzo performs against Lebedev before I pick that one...slightly leaning towards Ramirez at the moment

    I hope that Enzo can prove me wrong... but the last 2 concusive KO's may have taken there toll... I think that Enzo should have moved on from Camp Calzaghe a lot sooner IMO :yep

    Norton faces Dolan for the 2nd time. Enzo could do well against him, and then pick up the lonsdale belt for keeps. He could have a good 2010 at domestic level, and once he has re-grouped and got his confidence back he could then look at Europe and the World.

    Norton is the perfect fight for him if he is serious.

    A prime Enzo would still lose to Norton.

    Enzo has one decent win against a shot Braithwaite and one win over Hobson. Norton on his day could offer Norton a very stiff test. At the moment I think Norton stops Enzo.

    Would be a good fight to see if Enzo still has anything left.
