Lee Selby Next Defence

[Stuarty]

Sky reporting that he's in talks to face Eric Hunter in March, possibly in Cardiff. Anyone know much about Hunter? Can't remember if I've seen any of his fights. Couple of DQs on his record suggest he may be a bit of a loose cannon.

Looks like a mandatory - Hunter is 3 in the IBF ratings for last month, with positions 1 and 2 vacant. See http://www.ibfusbaregistration.com/ibfu ... w=rankings. I had to look him up, as I hadn't heard of him.

PS - on Hunter's Boxrec record, his opponent in his last fight was apparently down "thrice". Have we stepped back to 1784?

I think all boxing reports should be written in the style of Pierce Egan.

Be great to have a world title fight in Wales.
Hope they build him up there and use a few up and comers as support.
His bro the obvious choice.

I like it in the Motorpoint when its packed. Great atmosphere. Be good to get Andrew on the undercard in an eliminator for the british.
He's doing an 8 rounder on the 6th Feb, should be able to do it.
