It appears that Enzo Maccarinelli's defense of the WBO cruiserweight title against Ezra Sellers on the November 3 has been blocked by the British Boxing Board of Control. The BBBC has refused to clear Seller, calling the bout a mismatch and noting that Sellers was in no worthy of a title shot. [details]

Good, at this stage of his career Maccarinelli should fighting far better opponents. Don't get me wrong but Sellers potentially is a good fighter and he stopped Carl Thompson but this would be only his second fight in his return.

Someone like Vadim Tokarev would be suitable.

It speaks volumes for Maccarinelli's ambition in that Ezra Sellers is deemed a less worthy opponent than Bobby Gunn. Enzo is going in the wrong direction if he wants to taken seriously as 'world champion'.

Well done to the bbbc, this fight should never have been set up. Hopefully the bbbc refusing to sanction this fight sends a message to Wank Warren that his generally poor matchmaking wont be allowed. Enzo is wasting his time at the moment, when his could be really making his mark.

Tokarev, Wlodarzyk, Huck, Wilson... even O'Neil Bell. A fight that offers a test and suggests he resmebles anything close to world class. IMO, he hasn't passed that examination yet.

It is going to be hard to find someone else who will accept Franks ridiculous contractual demands.

Yep, echo's my sentiments. Also this bill will be shown across the world, he should be showcasing his talent.

well its about ****ing time somebody with a little authority figured out what maccarinelli was doing (i.e. making as many easy title defenses as he could).

enzo should stop being such a ****ing ***** and fight darnell wilson. hes a guy who actually deserves a title shot.
