Simpson aiming for a Commonwealth title shot???

Simpson will fight Ghana's John Gicharu for the right to take on Martin Lindsay of Belfast for the Commonwealth title in January, and believes victory in both fights will set him up for a second showdown with Appleby later in the year

Is this right? What happened to Paul Truscott? Sounds like a load of rubbish to me.

John Gicharu is like shit in a field now on British shows. Wasn't he the lanky guy that Matthews outpointed and Hyland slammed to sleep in a round? True enough, where is Truscott in all of this?

He defends his title on Jan 16th against John Simpson.

Is that Truscott vs Simpson on the 16th of January? Good fight.

If he wins that, then will he be aiming for a British title unification fight?
