    Not a bad fight. He hasn't fought in years and obliterated his return opponent in 90 sec. Get in another camp with his new trainer, take care of this guy and come back in September. Step up and maybe get Joshua or the winner of Povetkin vs Wilder at the end of the year. This guy is undefeated and Di Mori had one loss, just trying to climb the rankings vs decent opposition
    In what universe are these jokers decent opposition?

      No idea why Oquendo is even ranked, let alone a mandatory but WBA I guess.
      Shame.

      I'd like to see Browne get s Haye/Fury/Joshua payday.

      Obviously he's the big underdog against all 3 but he's got a punchers chance.

        I like Browne too. He seems like a nice guy.

        Don't think he can beat any of those guys. Especially after seeing him getting hurt vs Chagaev. But also seems like he's been mocked around by Hatton for a couple of years. He was hardly on the radar in the last couple of years, just waiting on that title fight.

        Would like to see him make financial gains from it, but a quick fight with Oquendo in Australia might be alright

          Very slim chance but he can punch so if he lands a good shot who knows.

          Browne's chin ain't great, so early KO vs Haye and Joshua are safe bets. But I still think it's a solid fight for all 3.

            It makes most sense for Haye right now. but a fight with Fury would also be good and probably more realistic - although I think Fury would 12-0 him easily.

            But yeah solid fights all around really, and would be good to see Browne in some bigger fights. I was actually impressed with the check hook for a guy of his size.

              This is today's boxing. Where guys with strong followings get to carefully manage their careers in order to position themselves for title shots or the most lucrative fighter available. You could put any fighter vs haye, he's going to sell. He's the man in the UK. The guy is ranked and haye needs rounds. This guy then maybe a helenius or glazkov in September. If he has 4 fights this year that'll be a successful return to boxing. Plus I'm sure part of it is to line his pockets.

                GARBAGE. Boxing is killing its self.

                  Any path David Haye takes, he'll get criticized.

                  If he fights bums, he's taking the easy route.

                  If he fights top tier, he's getting shots off the back of inactivity that he doesn't deserve.

                  Either way, there's going to be detractors.

                  Personally, I don't want him making a big payday without earning his way back onto the ladder - even if it means he has to fight a few warm bodies, make him wait his turn.

                  Too much mouth and not enough boxing in recent years.

                    I'd be pretty annoyed if I'd already purchased a ticket. Lets see what happens but after hearing this I'd much rather he fought Briggs just for the entertainment value! I know he would be criticised for that one as well but I still turn on the Vitali/Briggs fight for a laugh sometimes. Briggs can eat shots and would at least take him rounds

                      Hate needs a fight that is going to go 5-6 rounds, the de Moro fight showed nothing, he has a lot of rust to shake off.

                      This guy is young and will have some ambition, I'd have liked a more recognised name but I don't mind this one too much.
