LMAO that he has a title. Look at his some of his opponents on boxrec and try not to piss yourself.

****ing joke. 'English cruiserweight title' is worth about as much as a used sheet of toilet paper

I was hoping Issac Chamberlain would fight for this title next.

Yes it's true that most prospect fighters get to build a record of around 10 fights against journeymen and then get an English title shot or fringe ranking belt.

However usually an English title defence is against another prospect and is a worthy opponent.

Don't hate on these guys just yet, the challenger fought the no.1 ranked WBC guy a couple fights ago, albeit, he lost but he is challenging again now. These guys are willing.

Very hard to make big fights in first few fights and every fight unless your an Olympic gold medalist wanting to go the quick route and have massive backing from a big promoter

I will look forward to this matchup ith a keen eye
