6' 3" 203 LBS, could probably make SM with some hard yakka , though don't remember weighing less than 13 stones since I was 22.

Ideal opponent, Gandhi or Mother Theresa.

The Current ABA senior champion, has a similar problem to you with weight making problems. Chunky was his nickname. His name is on the tip of my tongue.... I was very impressed with him.

Stujones your talking about James Degale, a quality fighter who started off as a 81kg junior! hence the nickname Chunky.

ibbo yeah it's true i was all skin and bone(and dehydrated), but i can actually bang a little. Your body type is pretty similar to mine except youve got a bit more bulk than me. I'm thinking off doing a few weights to get up to 75kg.I've seen all your pro fights cos they've all been local to me, your debut and the teasdale KO were great performances.

Thats the fella, quality I hope him being tight at the weight will not effect his commonwealth chances.

Thanks, my other two werent very good performances though, but thats part of me not motivating myself before i enter the ring, but its experience. Haighy where you from? How many fights you had? What gym you train at?
