It's getting boring.

Cheer up Whicker its not that bad!, if he wins the Euro title there be plenty of British fighters he could face.

thats possible, yeah- there are also plenty of anonomous Europeans he could face. :)

But yeah- I hope things pick up.

Hatton could fight Mark Thompson if he win British title just one an elimantor. Michael Jennings. These fights can get made imo.

Yes the Welterweight division is very exciting domestically also chuck Jamie Cox in the mix along with Thompson, McIntyre, Brook, Jennings, Hatton. There will be some good match-ups to look forward to

I think I may have been a bit too cynical in my last post by implying that every single domestic prospect has their own intercontinental belt to fight for! Sometimes this sport can be very frustrating!

There are some good domestic scraps possible at welterweight as highlighted by Alexpaterson above, though I think we can rule Kell Brook out of that mix as he appears to be being pushed towards a WBO title shot. It's a damn shame that Brook VS Jennings never happened, I was looking forward to that one. Do we know who Mark Thompson's co-challenger for the vacant title would be if Brook gives it up? Good opportunity for Hatton to be nominated there surely?
