        I know it's a ****ty division but really he needs to fight an eliminator or at least someone ranked in the top 100 before he gets a shot at any title.
        Seriously don't talk about eliminators and shots at the title when Wilson has fought 4 better fighters in his last four fights than Enzo has his entire career minus Braithwaite. haye is the best cruiserweight and Mormeck is still number two but is fading. Thanks to Duva giving Flores a ****ty ass deal to fight Wilson and even a worse promotional contract offer, him and I talked tonight about signing with Don King. So now Wilson needs someone else for Feb 8th. DUva is dropping the ball for him here. But like I started to rant about earlier, Wilson isn't the best out there and sure he has some losses, he is though a more viable candidate for any title shot than Maccarenelli. I like Enzo but his accent to the top of the WBO was bull**** and he has fought my little sister, the neighbor's dog and Wayne Braithwaite in his last few fights.

            Yes, but your lil sister is one tough old bird.

            Enzo's resume isn't stellar (neither is Haye's for that matter) but frankly this Wilson chap has recently lost 4 consecutive fights and no-one in Europe (i.e. where the belts and money in this division are) has heard of him. He needs to get his arse over here or he can stay in his own country and continue to fight some more random rednecks.

            Haye-Maccarinelli is a massive massive fight in the UK. Each fighter is probably earning a higher purse than anyone else in the division has ever earned. Wilson means **** so I can't see how you can say he's a more "viable candidate" to take on Haye than the WBO champion who is undefeated in several years and is a pretty big name over here.

              I do agree that the Enzo-WBO belt shenanigans are a bit silly. It really is as though the WBO was setup purely to give Warren's fighters easy access to world title they can defend for several years whilst remaining undefeated.

              Then once they've milked it for all it's worth go to the US with the aim of getting a "superfight" off the back of their unbeaten record and "world title". I always try to stick up for the sport when my friends go on about how corrupt it is...but sometimes you have to wonder whats going one behind the scenes.

                C'mon Darnell had an exciting TV knockout in a fight he was badly losing. He's rugged but he's not quite championship level.

                  Macca is ONLY getting a shot BECAUSE OF THE BRIT FACTOR.
                  Macca has done **** all to warrant a title tilt.
                  His biggest win was a laboured decision over an inactive past his sell by date Braithwaite.
                  FACT.
                  Haye's record pisses all over that of Macca.
                  Fragomeni & Mormeck are 2 names for starters.
                  Haye also fought for his Legitimate World titles.
                  Who did Macca beat?
                  I have nothing against Macca but he really hasn't done anything against anyone.

                    That'll be Frank Warren with 2 World Champions (well, 3 if you count Arthur, which I don't) with the WBO belt, 1 of whom is also unified champion and P4P top 3 (at least)? It's hardly the sort of cabal Don King had going with one or two of the sanctioning bodies .....

                    He does have some clout with the WBO though. Mind you, it was the Brits who first gave their belts some meaning so that could be why.

                      Laboured win over Braithwaite? Really?
                      You illustrate my point about Haye's record perfectly. Winning in France against Mormeck is not to be sniffed at, and major congratulations to Haye for doing that. He is undoubtedly the undisputed CW champion. But before Mormeck his resume is also pretty crap. Fragomeni might have been undefeated but had never fought outside Italy before that, and he wasn't up to much.

                      Maccarinelli is getting the title shot because it's the biggest money fight out there for Haye. Yes, its marketability is increased because its an all British fight but it's also a unification fight an I'm all for them. Well done Haye and Maccarinelli for putting your titles on the line and giving us the fight we want to see.
