Surely Gary should be fighting a better opponent than Roman Aramian ranked 191 according to box rec.

Have the WBU made a special exception here?

They must have, normaly you have to be OUTSIDE the world's top 200 to qualify for a shot I believe.

I think he better than this level of fighter, WBU the wrong route for fighters imo.
Earl opponent last night was ranked at 90 by IBO at super featherweight.

Not sure if i should go to the fight as its on my doorstep or watch it on tv for free. The brad pryce fight could be entertaining. dont fancy paying for a one round lockett fight like the last time.

Paul smith (middle weight ) is fighting also, I want to see what he fights like. I like his tatoo on left arm, I might get one.

Why are ITV putting up with this fake world title shit, it's making a mockery of the sport allowing the casual/terrestrial viewer get conned into watching Boxing and thinking they are watching the best contest a "world title". When in reality they are watching two fighters of average ability, one usually so pitifully inept it's embarrassing.
