    Martin Rogan has had such momentum in his last 3 fights I hope Frank Warren does not now go safe for his next fight. Sprott or Harrison II have been mentioned, but neither fight excites me.

    Ideally I would like him to fight for the European belt, the strap he morally holds already. However I doubt this could happen.

    Therefore names which would do are - Brewster, Golota, Danny Williams (pay off John McDermott)

    Who would you want?

    Ideally, my ex missus.
    Failing that, reckon he'll take a relatively soft touch to increase his media profile, paving the way for a decent payday in the autumn months.

    Rogans taken a few decent blows plus he fights in a tough style so I don't think he needs to a hand picked opponent.

    Rogans future depends on what Warren thinks of Rogan. He might guide him to a one time only big money pay day aka a loss. He might think he is genuinely good and start pitting him v top 10 fighters. Rogan in terms of victories is officially the best in Europe (not including world class fighters obviously).

    I say put him in against Sprott. The way I look at it is fighters should go the traditional route so when their career is over they have something worthwhile to look back on. WBU won't be in no history books where as the lonsdale belt will be. Rogan has a serious belt, he should add the British and European to that collection and also lool for a fight v Chagaev.

    How about Rahman? Would be a dangerous fight, but Rahman is quite well known over here and it would sell tickets. Then we might see what Rogan's chin is made of.

    Also Monte Barrett could be an option, if FW wants to take a chance with Rogan.

    I reckon if he's headlining, Warren will pit him against some washed up 'name' fighter, like Sprott / Barratt / Guinn someone of that ilk.
    Even Oliver McCall could fit the bill......

    Is Golota's arm still messed up. I'd like to see him fight a big name and not give a crap about his Commonwealth title

    Chagaev would school Rogan badly.

    I'd love to see Rogan fight James Toney, Don't think Toney would travel though! so if not Toney then Brewster like he was promised.
