Wheres Dave Howe and Coleman Barratt ?

Post by funso banjo baby »

I remember someone saying Dave Howe had to pull out of a fight for private reasons some while back. But is he planning to return?

Coleman Barratt had a york Hall tune up scrapped in the early summer and obviously missed the chance to fight Fury for whatever reason. anyone know what his plans are?

Last I heard he was planning on going down to cruiser. I never understood why Coleman Barratt fights at heavyweight as he is a very small heavyweight and could easily be more successful at cruiser.

Barrett still holds the Irish Heavyweight Title and isn't too keen on letting go of it, the only real challengers are Rogan, Fury and McBride. He is definitely better suited to Cruiserweight and could make an impact on the European scene at that weight.

You're right actually, I just had a look at the EBU rankings and there is a lot more depth there than I thought. Tims is a good shout at Cruiser. :TU:
