    I can only imagine the variety of reasons that he kept him out of the ring since the Jones fight.

    Always thought that if he could have got in shape and trimmed down to light welter or even lightweight that he could have done something at British level.
     
  2. It's good to see him back. He's definately got a bit of talent, although question marks remain over his temperament.
     
  3. Is he still with Enzo? Whens he out?

    He's one of the best fighters i've ever shared the ring with.

    I've noticed that you always have a good word for him.

    If I remember correctly you said he should/could have been word class level - any truth?

    I think he's got great, great potential but to be fair he should really be beating Kevin Mcintyre if he is to figure at the highest level, Kevins an excellent fighter but clearly not world class.

    When is he back out? Who against? Who is he with? How do you guys in the know think he will do?


    Great luck to the guy, not seen too much of him but he always looked handy.

    Hope he gets himself in shape, has looked a bit undercooked at times in the past but decent fighter and entertaining.

    He's been up to near 16 stone recently by all accounts.

    I'll be amazed if he can get back to any sort of level if that's true.

    He's a good well rounded fighter and seem's like a nice enough guy I hope he does well, I think he thought he was getting an easy night when he took on Mcintyer and as a result got beaten a rematch for the Celtic title would be a good move for both of them.
