    Hamidi is a very good fighter i thought he beat Murray

    I like Simpson hopefully he can get to European as he is a solid fighter and good to watch. I'll be honest he might get a Euro title if its a weak champion or something but a normal Euro champ i think would beat him IMO

    well im going to disagree with you on that one,look at the improvement in john since his last fight he will only get better honest,if applyby wins the euro which is a big ask away from home john would gladly fight him again

    I'd love to see Simpson settle the score with Appleby, no chance he's a better fighter then John- that was a very weird performance.

    There is no point beating the world and his wife, just beat the guys you need to beat.

    A lot of people are wanting Fury to beat all of Sprott, Skelton, Rogan, Harrison and Williams - most of those are pretty much done already, and the ones that aren't will be by the time he gets to them.

    Sometimes clearing out domestically is seen as more important than it actually is. No point messing around, it leads to a loss of motivation, and often, a great chance to succeed at the higher level.

    On Simpson, I don't see why not - stick him in and find out :good

    Dont see any reason why he cant. Hes rapidly improving under billy nelson and looks to have the hunger back which he seemed to lack a while back

    yeh if appleby wins the Euro, id think Simpson would beat him.

    Simpson has improved heaps although i have only saw the Appleby and Trusscot 2 fights to judge on.
