    "case closed"? Oh well, thats for a least hearing my appeal.....;o)

    Would Your Honour care to answer the case for Urango being a better win than Sanchez now?

    Meh, any difference between Sanchez and Urango is negligible. They are both power punchers that failed to do a lot (so far in Urango's case, could change starting with next week). Infact, there is so little in it one win for Urango against Berto would edge him ahead, so I guess you'll be praying to God almighty one of those roundhouse swings hits something.

    Freddie Welsh, Jimmy Wilde and Jim Driscoll would all be up there. Just shows in times gone by people really did go to America.

    I'm sorry but Urango isn't exactly providing me with a hell of a lot of evidence just yet. Carlos Vilches and Hermit Ngoudjo :nono

    They've both done **** all and thats why its marginal :nono

    You might rate his skills highly but I don't - not really. :nono

    IF he beats Berto :thumbsup

    I'm not rating his skills, I'm rating his achievements and they are better than Sanchez's. Sanchez never got past the "prospect" level, Urango is a world class fighter.

    Having said that he's made for Berto and I think he'll get stopped.

    Urango is only a world champ because he fought for a vacant title against a soft opponent. That's like rating Nicky Cook as a world class fighter, its proof that holding a world title does not neccessarily mean you will continue at that level. Urango still has some way to go for me to prove that, and losing to Berto wouldn't necessarily disprove it either if he goes back down to 140.

    He does look a little better than Sanchez though.

    well for every mug who says Hamed was "exposed" and a "fraud", etc

    in the fullness of time - he has got quite a impressive legacy equal to that of any British elite fighter

    apart from Lennie Lewis who is in a class of his own
