Bloody tease

I thought were going to give us a name...any rumours on who it might be?

Chris Sanigar (an absolute diamond) told me who the opponent was two weeks ago. Regrettably, I've been sworn to secrecy because A-Force, whom he promotes the Bristol show with, are extremely sensitive. They had a pop at Chris when he revealed the fight was going to be in Bristol!
All I can say is, the opponent is European.

They're waiting for Audley to get back from his training camp in Las Vegas before announcing it.

I'm sorry, mate. I really owe Chris my silence. He's been in the wilderness for a few years after Warren dumped him and, now he's climbing the ladder again, I don't want to jeapordise his relationship with A-Force.

Wladimir Virchis or Rene Monse are the opponents I would most like it to be however Popov would be a good opponent to get in at short notice.

Also Bennie does you knowing the opponent mean the opponent has been preparing for Audley. The opponent will have known about this for the last 2 weeks as well is this what you are saying.

Don't be silly, Audley doesn't allow his opponents any time to prepare

Why does Aud want them to wait till he gets back to make the announcement?
Is it so he can see the disappointment in everyone's faces first hand? :(
