I really hope that Kingsley Ikeke gets a shot against Winky as has been rumoured. I mean, his chances of victory aren't all that great, but at 32 he needs to get his title shot in soon.

Probably some of you guys saw him on ESPN FNF beating up on Antwun Echols. He's had a hard life, going from problematic Nigeria to being homeless in Toronto while still training. Good to see him get up to this level.

I know he's skinny but the guys ****ing huge for the weight! He looks like a bit of a freak with those long arms but i'd hate to be the one having to get inside them!
On the domestic front there's talk of these two matches coming up: Roy Rutherford/Billy Corcoran for the English Super featherweight title on the Witter/Lynes undercard(Oct 21) and Ross Minter/Brett James which is said to be on for December at the Excel so Williams/Skelton undercard i'd imagine(Dec 3).

Nothing beats Hatton VS. Mayweather, this is the fight I want to see more then any other fight. Also I will love to see Toney VS. Vitali.

We're getting the best fight out there, in just over 48hours.

But....potential fights ?

Mosley-Judah

I hope it will be great like the first fight, but something tells me that it will not last long. I have a feeling that we might see an early stoppage. Can't wait for the fight.

I wanna see Barrera rematch Pacquiao... I think there's much unfinished business there.

I also will love to see the Barrera rematch Pac. But I don't see Barrera wanting the rematch, it should've been done by now. He fought Morales for the third time, why not Pac. I think Barrera last fight before he retires, might be with Pac for big money.

I don't think Barrera wants the Pacquiao fight either... But he's a warrior and so I think it will happen.

I read somewhere that Barrera is willing to have 6 more fights before he retires... So if you're right, we may have to wait a while - (Or unless Barrera get's beaten in the meantime).

Speaking of Corrales-Castillo we don't get to see it here in Canada, again!! :mad: So I'll have to download, meaning I'll be MIA from any boxing boards until I get to watch it. Sunday is Thanksgiving here, thought (we have it earlier than the Americans) so I'll be busy with family stuff for a while as well.

Ah well, I really don't mind watching fights on delay like that, as long as I don't know the result. One advantage of boxing not being in the mainstream is that it is easy to conceal yourself from the results.

Well Bombardier... If it's speed you're after, I've found that the quickest way to get my hands on a top quality fight that's not being shown in the UK, is to download/torrent it from here.

mayweather-hatton, pacquiao-marquez part 2, and yes barrera-pacquiao part 2 (i honestly think that pac has mab's numbers, if and if pac wins against erik the terrible, the word is, pac fights mab next)

Yes, Ring made a similar comparison not that long ago, and it's true. Well, actually they had a dumb cover story trying to compare the middles of today with that era, but they also made this more appropriate comparison in another issue.

and the light welters, its not as bad as we all think I dont reckon at times. Just cos the heavies are piss poor at present.

Its a shame Vit idnt get the push for the belt that Vlad did, we coudl have had a nice little trilogy with Lennox if he had.

Damn those germans they got the wrong brother :)
