Well you obviously have a hidden agenda - A new user and your first post was to recommend Choi as an opponent, second was to dismiss Stephen's chances of beating either.

Choi is a far easier fight than Simpson - All Choi has is his dig and strength. He can be EASILY out boxed.
Simpson is a better fighter all round, and he may have done 12 rounds on many occasions but he hasn't won one of them. :wink:

Pacing yourself isn't as hard to do when you're a fit kid naturally which Stephen is, as anyone who's seen him train will admit.
good point about john not winning over 12 rounds,people will say hes had bad decisions, that's excuses, i beleive you take the decision out the judges hands,flipside is he's stopped everyone else before the 12 rounds were complete.But simpson is a machine and stephen will find that out when they meet,no matter how good he is. :TU:

I didn't mean no disrespect to Simpson, Billy. You know you won't get that from me or our camp.
The poster made a point about 12 round distance I was pointing out that fact that's all.
I hope Simpson will be at his best, Stephen will be and I know Ste wouldn't want it any other way as I'm sure John will.

I obviously have my view that Stephen is a different gravy! :TU:

I see on boxrec listings that this fight is down for the British title, is this correct?

I thought Lindsay still held that belt.
