Came across this whilst bumbling about the bbbofc's website.

Cook must fight Gamaliel Dias in a final eliminator.

Ah ha! Can't beat BBN!

Any ideas how things work out with the EBU title? Cyril Thomas is Cook's mandatory, and I think that fight would work out roughly the same time as is planned for this fight. Would Cook get dispensation or anything, or would he have to drop the EBU title. And if he did, would he be installed as mandatory should he lose to Dias (which he won't of course

)

Managed to miss this bit of news, this is excellent stuff. Feel that a world title shot is coming a bit soon personally, but if he was to lose his title shot, it could well benefit him in the long run anyhow.
