Hobson-v-Thompson & other interesting bbbofc suggestions

Post by jomothepure »

I say 'suugestions' because how wateright many of these will become remains to be seen, although most are mandatories, so...

Anyway...Hobson against the cat is proposed for the British cruiser title. Ecellent name for Hobson's resume after the loss to Enzo, whilst this would be the last chance for the Cat to show he is still safe and ready to continue after the poor 'win' last time out.

At heavy...jesus...you must win a bronze medallion for knowing what's happening here. Gammer-v-Skelton. Ok. For the VACANT British title. Apparently Paul Boyce won the bids and this will take place at The Showground, Carmarthen on 23rd June. Obviously it's highly unlikely Skelton would have this fight and then Williams II less than a month later. WTF is happening here I don't know.

At light heavy it's poor old Oboh against Haymer. Apparently Oboh is fighting unbeaten Brian Kamoko in Gahan in a fortnights time, so fingers crossed he's now getting the fights he deserves. Just don't let him go to church in the build up to a fight from now on. http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=090061

Everything else has been pretty much discussed. Burns-Docherty and Murray-Mitchell are huge stand-outs for SF eliminators. I reckon one of these will happen. Answers on a postcard please which one I think will go ahead.

Moving into Europe, [sarcasm]I'm enthralled by the prospect of Sprott-McDermott for the EU title [/sarcasm]

Dany Williams is official challenger for the EBU title, although assuming he beats Skelton again, we may well see him get his shot at Valuev.

And Nicky Cook has vacated the EBU feather title.

Burns v Docherty wont happen . Tommy Gilmour will try and get Craig a fight for the commonwealth title.Where Murray v Mitchell will not happen at the moment any way. Kevin will continue to defend his IBF belt. So expect to see Burns V Murray in a final eliminator.

Think it (EBU) said this was either cancelled or postponed, for a reason I know not.
