    Nice one...:good

    Tony needs to be stepping it up in the class of his opponents now, I think he will have had tougher sparring than some of the opponents he has been fed...:yep

    Good Luck Jaffa...:good

    Would be interesting to see how he fares with Hainy as his only defeat is to Horton, so could be the smallest of measuring sticks to compare with DeGale.

    Or am I talking shite? :think

    I think that a fight with Horton would be better than Hainy...:yep

    It's about 30 levels up in class from the jokes he's been facing to date.

    Not good enough though, fighting someone that was beaten by the guy James DeGale hammered on Saturday.

    If he lost to Horton I can't even imagine how bad he must be.

    I don't think that they will step him up to quickly as he is a good ticket seller and they will stick him on cards where the main attractions ain't gonna shift many so he will pop up on cards where he ain't the main attraction but will be filling the hall out with his own fans...:yep It ain't good, but that's the otherside of the business I guess...:yep

    I wonder how long he is with his current promoter for...:think

    The fact this is regarded as a step up shows how unbelievably bad his other opponents have been

    Not bad considering how poor he looked against King. Although looking at the guy's record, it seems to be a step down for Jaffa.

    Good luck to Jaffa. Hopefully he impresses in this fight.
