Good on you, didnt get to see it but the British next? You've had a couple of great wins. No-one would have picked you doing unsworth on the 1st.

Derry will be back in title contention in not time. I would not be surprised if he were to get at the British at either SFW or Lightweight in the near future I think managed correctly he could end up getting a shot at the Euro at SFW if he so wished and then who knows. The key for Derry is to get him into th right fights and he will excel.

Based on last nights solid performance Derry would certainly give most LW's in the UK a hard time,when the Corolla fight happens it will me mega tough to call but imo Derry's experience and natural strength advantage will tell.

Is there any chance of Matthews vs Tseveenpurev III over 10 rounds?

It might not be a sensible risk/reward fight, but their PrizeFighter bout was possibly the best PrizeFighter fight so far and I would like to see it.

Okay, I didn't think the Tseveenpurev fight was very likely in reality.

Why not? I know he is more solid at lightweight but he made the weight for prizefighter and he looked good at the weight. I just thought that title opportunities might arise at 130 that could tempt him? If he was offered a Euro shot against that Belgian Fegatelli would he not take it that would be a great and winnable fight for Derry
