IS IT TIME FOR MEDLEY TO STEP IT UP ?

No disrespect to the guy, but i feel he could be fighting better quality opponents ??? ;;-)

Definately! I have been contemplating whether to start this thread myself for about six months or more.

Since Hlatswayo he's fought no one of significance, and that was like 7-8 fights ago, he had a lot of trouble with a very green Tui Luveni and there's now talk of him fighting Mundine

Medley has some good fights here in Australia over the next 2 years; Dawson;Waters,Singh,Davidson at Lt Middle. Taliepai;Crampton;Taylor at Middle, should he get through these guys he'll be 30 and still young and ready to go overseas.

I bet my house he fights a small asian on the Geale undercard

Medley asked to step up against Hlatswayo. I think the problem is managers etc not letting there fighters fight the hard fights.
Im sure if you asked Medley he would gladly fight whoever you put in front of him, Just like most fighters would. And after watching the Fox fight cards its going to be hard to get guys over here to fight. Why would any decent opponent come here if they don't get a fair deal of the Judges.

Rob is a very under-rated Boxer, I have watched him fight since he was a 14 year old kid, he has all of the attributes to become World Champion. He is with the right people at the moment to get him there, look for him to step it up very soon & fulfill his potential.

Couldn't agree more that he ticks most of the box's to become world champ and i think if his team grabs the bull by the horns NOW he has a chance to become world champ, I've always enjoyed watching Rob fight...It's just time to raise that bar...
