with stephen beating simpson an simpson beating lindsay on wednesday in a real quality fight it must surly give the lad alot of confidence an hope for big things in the future, although some say his win over simpson could of gone either way the lad broke his hand early on in the fight an fought him in his own back yard.swifty is only a youg lad with very few fights behind him. your thoughts on how far he can go? if your browsing ste,hows the hand healing?
Simpson is a genuine european level fighter so to even be competitive with him in your 11th fight deserves credit.
Quality prospect. Shame he bust his hand. I've seen the scar, and it looks like it was quite a major prob. I think he fought against Simpson the wa he did because of the hand. Excellent boxer and seems to carry a bit of power. If I'm being honest, I would like to have seen him against Lindsay, but if he fights and beats him then I fully expect him to face Lindsay. The path seems to be straight forward. Simpson - Lindsay - onwards to euro I reckon
Have to disagree with you there mate, Degale is the best prospect in the UK by a mile...... I agree that Swifty is a good fighter but to me he never beat Simpson ive watched the fight back a few times and still dont get how he got the points win.
I thought the Simpson fight was very close and would not have been surprised if it had gone the other way, but the fact is although ste is still green he hung with one of the top guys in his division, more power to him. I think a good fight would be a smith Simpson return then Lindsay fighting the einner
