At 23 Eggy sure has time on his hands, but needs to fight aboard if he's to make a name for himself on the World stage. So if the return with Skeete comes off & is successful then a few fights on the continent would serve him well.

I agree he has time but i can see him burning out early with that style.

Lots of tough fights already. Lots of punches taken.

We could be looking at his prime now for all we know

Great story and real down to earth lad I hope his success long continues. Love seeing a guy who wasn't meant to do anything overachieve like hell.

Eggington is garbage, footwork and technique is absolutely terrible. Guy just relies on strength and power because he's so big at the weight. The Skeete whooping told me everything I need to know.

That's it! That's the comparison that fits. He is the Brummie Margo.

The Egg sort of looks like something out of Trainspotting.

Some story though as has been mentioned he only wanted to be a journeyman. He'll definitely fight for a world title at the very least and certainly be able to buy his own house outright etc. I wish I could do that, lol.

Haha, yeah he's the Brummie Margarito but he definitely also looks like he just stepped off the Trainspotting 2 set. Good call

Innit. Would be nice to even be on the ladder :-/

Lol, he'd do well to follow in his example and take on all comers. The O is already gone so he doesn't have to worry about that, just concentrate on continuing his aggressive style and winning against legit opposition.
