It's David Price. But that one slipped under the radar, should be a good test.

[Chambers2]

Nice to see Bellew-McKenzie back on the list, come on Bomber!!

Looking forward to Pryce-McDermott already, excellent fight for Prycey just what his career needs. It's a tough ask though, because only the elite domestic fighters beat BIG John, so we should findout more about the BIG Scouser in this one

[kamicazze]

Gavin didnt want to fight Amar?

[leforge]

Can see Price stopping Mcdermott be a good fight.

[Gazmac81]

Think hes going back to Light welter

Strange one Maloney promotingt the Simpson vs Smith fight

dont think either is with him

Gavin didnt want to fight Amar?

[15829]

think its gavin v williams may 21st possibly for commonwealth


maloney had options on simpson when he fought lindsay


cant wait to see price in a proper test think he'll stop mcdermott late on

[Gazmac81]

I remember him saying he had booked the Kings hall for Lindsays 2 defences after that one

think its gavin v williams may 21st possibly for commonwealth


maloney had options on simpson when he fought lindsay


cant wait to see price in a proper test think he'll stop mcdermott late on

[Frankie Gavin]

It ent me vs williams but don't get me wrong its a fight I would relish an guarantee I would win cause he can't out box me so his gonna come straight at me which will suit me to the ground

Seen that other thing from the Board about IJL having received a 'severe reprimand' over that Prizefighter scorecard?

[Horse]

Seen that other thing from the Board about IJL having received a 'severe reprimand' over that Prizefighter scorecard?

What do they think he did wrong?

Is that little announcement the end of the matter as far as they are concerned?

[Bomber 1]

Gavin didnt want to fight Amar?

That's wrong!! Frankie would fight anyone, he'd never knock back a fight, Lomax is better than Amar.. Frankie is the future of our game in this country IMHO ;)

Guess so Horse. I believe it's over the round where he scored the guy who'd been knocked down the winner, but the notice is pretty vague:

Referee Mr. Ian John-Lewis appeared before the Stewards of the Board regarding his performance at the recent Prizefighter tournament in Liverpool on Wednesday, 23rd March 2011.

Following Mr. John-Lewis’ evidence, the Stewards have issued a severe reprimand and advised of future conduct.

It doesn't really mean anything, does it?

Was Ian John Lewis instructed not to score the fight a draw? Did the BBBofC give their permission for there to be a no draw policy at PrizeFighter?

It seems he only got "in trouble" because his scoring of the last round was so clearly wrong, rather than the BBBofC seeing a problem with him trying to desperately score the fight to one fighter or the other, instead of scoring the fight the obvious way and giving a draw.

[Glyn Leach]

You'd have to ask them Horse. Looks to me as though they just wanted to be seen to be doing something about something people were complaining about.

[Horse]

You'd have to ask them Horse.

Yeah, I was just throwing the questions out there really.

Looks to me as though they just wanted to be seen to be doing something about something people were complaining about.

Do you think they satisfied anyone with this announcement? It makes me have less respect for them than I would have if they had done nothing.

Make you right imo the English aint big enough for him.. Frinkie is rated 6 in UK imo he beats Daws Wright and Cook now you'v also got British Champion Ashley Theophane who aint on the list who i think would be an easier fight then Wright and Cook, Theophane has been offered the fight and dont fancy it at all..
1 Amir Khan
2 Paul McCloskey
3 Lenny Daws
4 Nigel Wright
5 Jason Cook
6 Frankie Gavin

[Horse]

Shouldn't Rob Norton have been given a mandatory challenger? He hasn't fought in over a year.

Hide has legal troubles, Maccarinelli is moving down to light heavyweight and Afolabi might not be eligible. Dunstan, the English champion, is the obvious choice to be made mandatory challenger if the other major British cruiserweights are unavailable.


Also, Barker hasn't fought for over a year either and hasn't defended the British title in the 16 1/2 months since he won the title.

Is there no one worthy of becoming his mandatory challenger, or being given an eliminator for the title? Is the Commonwealth champion Martin Murray not worthy?

Agree mate, empty gesture at the end of the day

[fasteddie]

[fasteddie]

nigel wright says he is the most avoided fighter in britain,i disagree id go as far as saying he is the most boring fighter in british boxing. he cant get the fights cause the t.v companies dont wanna see a boring fight

Totally disagree.What is boring about Nigel Wright? Did you see him against Kevin Mac in the rematch or holding Daws to a draw,defeating Alex Arthur? I dont think he can be called negative at all,he is an excellently schooled southpaw boxer/puncher.Solid English champ/British challenger at 10st and who knows at Lightweight.I think he would beat the likes of Steve Williams with a lot to spare.

[15829]

am a big fan of nigel wright andn think he will be a tough fight for anyone at light welter or lightweight, am a fan of williams seen him fight 4 or 5 times live think he falls short against the likes of wright and gavin
