Thanks for the Max, The EU/EBU route is always a good route for the Brits to go for. The EU title has proved fruitful for Michael Sprott and Willie Limond is the mandatory for Arthur also.

I wonder if Jonathon Thaxton has considered the EU route. He has spoken of his frustration of not being in the British title reckoning, he is ranked in the EBU rankings and maybe he should reliquish his WBF and go for the EU title, if he wants to go onto bigger and better things.

Something i just noticed looking at the ratings is that all the light heavyweight world champions are from Europe:-

WC Zsolt ERDEI (H/D) INELIGIBLE WBO
WC Fabrice TIOZZO (F) INELIGIBLE WBA
WC Clinton WOODS (GB) INELIGIBLE IBF
WC Tomasz ADAMEK (PL) INELIGIBLE WBC

& also nearly all the super middles champs are from europe (Calzaghe, Beyer, Kessler)

Hayes also the Mandatoryfor the EBU title, he could gofor thatif hebeats Hobson next too.

Maybe Europeans will start to rule the LH divison like the SM.

Don't think Arthur wants to fight Limond again either.

Too bad Audley thinks he's above the EBU title now because he could go for that too.
