Don't think he has a promoter? Think that has been behind his poor opponents, gets chucked on the odd Matchroom bill in Manchester against a cheap low level opponent. He could do with the Buglioni rematch.
Re: whats with all the crap for hosea burton
Has he been offered anything? Yarde should have fought someone like Burton by now.
So many domestic divisions are stagnant like the light heavyweight division.
Fight each other!

His younger brother Zac made his debut on the Fury bill, he was a really good amateur although has had a few years away from boxing, worth keeping an eye on
Re: whats with all the crap for hosea burton
They both have very good potential
Re: whats with all the crap for hosea burton
If Buatsi beats Summers convincingly then Burton would be a good step up after that.
He's been on plenty of Matchroom bills and works with Joe Gallagher so you'd expect him to be looked after fairly well. Probably just always seen as more of an undercard filler for the Manchester shows topped by Crolla and Quigg. They seemed to have dried up now though so Burton is an afterthought for Eddie.

Re: whats with all the crap for hosea burton
all hes done since this thread was made last year was fight the boxrec #745 (no in last 5 years) and the boxrec #845 (1 win in last 4 years)
so still more utter garbage opposition for hos since his ko loss to bugs. now weighing up near 190
wuts the story

Clearly hasn’t got backing - decent opponents require decent pay.
