    Same here, you'd expect Warren to get about 6 bills out of that little lot.

    I reckon they will make a good 3 cards out of that line up, if they did put it all on a show it would make a perfect esb meet up...

    I wonder if we see Gavin in a title fight on the Macklin vs Barker undercard. Would explain why he has put it in Birmingham.

    Gavin will be in a title fight. They said they didn't give him a title fight on the Upton Park card cos they wanted his first title fight in Birmingham.

    Not sure what title though, probably will be a shitty intercontinental type like Degale fought for. Though I hope Frank takes a risk and puts Frankie in with the winner of Daws-Williams.

    Ajose is in a WBC eliminator in September so wouldnt be suprised if he vacated the Commonwealth and Gavin fights for the vacant title. Jason Cook would be a good opponent.

    I think he should.

    It will allow the fans a first really good look at what type of fighter Gavin will be.

    I'm not so sure (in fact I'm certain that he won't) that he will be the pressure fighter that we've seen thus far, hence him being caught with stray headbutts etc - it's difficult when the crowd know that he was an amateur champion and are baying for blood.

    He'd beat either of those anyway, they might as well get on with it. Beating an average journeyman like a Sam Horton (even though he's got a winning record let's be realistic) won't do him any good.
