Healy has fought quite a few decent/good domestic fighters, but he's lost to them all inside the distance.
Antony Small, Mathew Hall, Andy Lee, Jamie Moore all beat him in 4 rounds or less.
A good opponent for only your 3rd fight, experianced but beatable.Comment

I want degale to do well, I dont want anyone to beat him until they let Darren Sutherland at him in a year or 2.
No point in wasting that fight in anything less than a 10 rounder. In an ideal world they'd fight each other for a euro or world title in 2 years time, both unbeaten until then. Then Daz KOs him.Comment

Of course he is Frank, I guess we'll find out in 5 years time when he fights someone with a live pulse. Anyone who really wants to become the future of British Boxing needs to get away from (the massively unpopular and rightly so) Frank Warren.Comment
