Toney did not sign with King, if I am not mistaken Toney was a mandatory defence.
He did sign with King and King has Co Promotional rights over him now, which happens when you want a shot at a King fighter who holds a title and when he knows who'll win.

I'd say Audley has more of a right to challendge for it then Koc.
Because its a voluntary defence, Koc is with Sauerland and Sauerland have options on Vidoz.
Yeah but Vidoz should still have the right to choose his opponents.
Vidoz should take up Audley's offr and give us and EBU champ.
Can;t believe we havent had one since Lennox!
Warren should get the winner of Skelton and Williams a shot. [/url]
When you have a promotion contract you dont have the right to choose who you will fight, you could either accept the opponent or not. Its Sauerland that pays the purse for both boxers not Vidoz.

Why? He only has a promotional deal with Sauerland, that doesn;t mean Sauerland says who he'll fight does it?
If so then maybe Audleyshould start making a deal with Sauerland.
Vidoz has an exclussive promotion contract with Sauerland so unless they lose a pursebid or someone makes a very big offer to Sauerland, Vidoz will fight on Sauerland cards atleast 2 more times.
I would disagree that Etteine is on the same level as Wiggins etc. Sure he has his faults but at one stage was in the top ten and had beaten Clay-Bey. Wiggins and all haven't managed that type of win. Alot of posters (including myself) are saying Harrison vs Clay-Bey would be nice - well Brock beat a guy who beat Clay-Bey.
If Audley is desperately struggling for a oppoenent, but him in with Bonnin again - sorry but there is unfinsihed business there. That stoppage was awful and Bonnin was well in the fight (winning in most eyes).
I don't see why a clay bey fight couldn't be made actually. He's pretty much unnattached, and he needs the fight as much as Audrey in my opinion.
Harrison didn't mention Clay Bey at all in his shouting out Brock/McLine spiel. I'm sure it could be made quite easily though.
He really needs 2 more fights by the end of the year though. Even if it's a stop-gap fight, at least he'd be keeping the wheels oiled while he keeps working on the infamous McLine-type fight for December.
Someone like Tann, Bryant - Terry Smith has a decent US reputation after taking Brock the distance. He needs to fight in 2 or 3 weeks

Etienne was shot to pieces by the time Brock faced him if you watch that fight you will see that his balance was so poor that he was being rocked by jabs. He was fininshed before the Tyson fight which is why he went back to his old criminal ways.
I think an ideal fight for Audley would be Monte Barrett and I even think he would beat Chris Byrd right now who is a "champ" on borrowed time

I agree, but I doubt Goosen would let him have a shot at Tann. Terry Smith would take the fight, and he could likely land Bryant or Clay-Bey. At worst, he should get in the ring with a journeyman like Willie Chapman or Zumbrun just to get some activity in this year.
But -- I honestly think he's done for the year. I hope I'm wrong, but he's squandering his career.

At least most had heard of Etteine!
Only because he got sparked by Tyson.
Wiggins had beat Bryant and Tshabalala and had pushed Monte Battett and Davarryl Williamson close
