    Hide would be silly to take the fight tbh and can see his promoters stopping it. he is 1 fight away from being WBC mandotory. if he won that he could command a decent fee for the fight.

    Hernandez is too clever for Macca and can bang a bit.

    I think Hernandez could be a problem for Macca. He dropped Braithwaite in RD1 1 and twice in the 2nd RD he just got complaicent, can't see it happening again. Gregory Drozd has a fight scheduled soon maybe he would step in. I would prefer if Hide prepared for Macca, as at his age this will likely be his last shot at the title and he needs to make sure he is 100%.

    This announcement tells me that Warren will be able to put Enzo in with anyone.

    Excluding an outside chance of Herbie, it's bound to be a no hoper. Bobby Gunn's last victim.

    Can't see Hide getting a shot.

    Assuming that no-one top notch will want to take a fight at this late notice and Warren won't see the need to take a risk how about Rob Norton - boxed okay last time out?

    There is no way FW will let Enzo in with Hide.

    It will end up being a nobody in terms of being ranked. Lucky for Enzo - it probably means he will have two fights after Haye brutally smashed his face in before he realises he just ain't good enough and retires. :yep

    I think Braithwaite was only down once (in the first). Hernandez was a bit overrated and Braothwaite was too big a step up for him, they ain't gonna put him in with someone that comfortably beat Braithwaite after he's had three easy 8 rounders against not-all-that opposition since.

    Getting past the WBO is one thing, but the BBBoC are a more difficult animal.

    [Edit - Gunn was sanctioned]

    Still no word on what punchbag Enzo will be facing yet?

    I used to like big Enzo, but the outlandish statements he has been making since Haye whupped that welsh ass of his has had my big scottish head shaking from side to side in disbelief.
    "Im punching so aaard I have to hold the power baaack" & other stupid quotes, it looks like Enzo still believes his own hype that was lavished upon him before the Haye fight.
    & a man who doesnt learn from his mistakes gets no sympathy from me. Enzo needs another whooping to get his head out of the clouds once & for all.
    Like most here, I would have loved to see Hide dishing out some punishment, but hey-ho still no word... Dont anyone have contacts in here anymore?
    Maybe Im just spoiled with Jeff Thomas giving the forum inside info, & Im GREEDY FOR MORE....
    We need some insider info. & the place is crawling with welshies, cymrus or whatever they are called... Dont any of them know something? & I mean boxing in particular. Its a long shot, but I thought I would ask anyway.
    Are there any welsh brain cells out there anywhere... & if there are, report to Dunky immediately!
