Simpson would face anyone, so would Choi.

Id like them both to win, but will pick Choi as he's won at a slightly higher level. But Simpson might do it if the age kicks in late on with Choi.

Great matchmaking. Can't fail to be explosive. It was always mooted when Simpson was British champ.

Why will Simpson get "smashed"?? Other than Selby, I can't think of anyone to have done this. Simpson's record could have been much, much better had it not been for a number of close - and debatable - decision losses (Stephen Smith x 2 in the not-so-distant past to name just a couple).

Cos it's Choi! Although he may be getting a bit old now.

This fight is for the WBO Inter-Continental title.

Is Hearn intending to send Simpson on the path to a WBO title shot?
