they mentioned on ringside the other night that he's a "free agent". if that's the case he either wants to get himself with FW or go Stateside before his career fizzles out.

Fwank offers good paydays, some padding fights and a shot at a title, a winnable shot, more often than not. Followed by some soft defences then a fight with Mitchell.

USA - Less money, harder fights, more chance of improving as a fighter and a shot at a genuine world title, most likely in a hostile enviroment or on some major US undercard.

Depends which way he wants go. Wouldn't blame him whichever way he decided to go, but the US option would probably improve him, as a fighter at 24 yrs old.

2 examples Khan (now), Mitchell (now). Not the most ideal but trying to prove a point.

i dont think he'd need some padding fights and then a shot at a title,he's unbeaten and was the european champion so he doesnt need that i dont think.He could fight mitchell in his next fight and it would sell i reckon

I agree, I was just speculating that might be the way Warren would take him, if he decided to go with him :TU:

yeah i can see your point,i think mitchell would be a good test though to see if he's ready for the world scene and also it should be a decent enough pay day for the two of them

it's a frightening thought that his career would just "fizzle out" after the action that lad's served up, without having at least a house to show for it. Such is boxing however. I'm not saying it will fizzle out only that it would seem unfair if he wasn't rewarded for what he's done.

don't go there mate you'll depress us all. A year or 2 back I remember watching John Uttaka for Portsmouth and thinking he didn't know how to play football. This year I went to see Niall Ranger waste space on St James Park....seeing Bacary Sagne all over him was like watching a lion and a lamb together. And there's plenty of other utter dross.

They were on about Ranger on talksport the other day and saying he might be the next big thing on tyneside. Haven't seen him myself.

At World level, I have reservations about his power, but his other attributes can hopefully compensate.
