i can only guess its for personal reasons, but good on ian napa for stepping in, napa really is the 'nearly man' .... if only he could punch !!

lovely silky skills and american shoulder rolling technique !!

Is Power girlfriend pregnant that could be reason

Boxing News said she was heavily pregnant so maybe thats why.

Surely it was known she would be heavily pregnant when the fight was made though?

This is at Bantamweight tho, I doubt Marc can do that

He did beat Napa at super bantam, but Ian is much too small for the weight, he was a little fly at his peak.

And Marc has had the chance b4, twice in fact and one at the Commonwealth belt

But Napa also had the chances before, Callaghan by the way stepped in at week notice for the commonwealth title at feather, a weight above his & knowing againts a world class fighter. Napa is also willing to box anyone at anytime. These two are throw backs, old school, put some of todays fighters to shame. They deserve whatever they get out the sport

Whats going on with Power then? Maloney must be fed up with him by now. That's a couple of pull outs in a row isn't it? Pity it would have been a decent litle scrap.
