broadhurst v Aaron Ross added to the April 15 card now.
Ross goes well and doesn't leave wondering. might be a good little scrap that one.

Doesn't look like much of a fight.
I've seen both fight a few times, i don't think either fighter can really be in a bad fight, both will bring it and it should be entertaining.
Pony Shaw may have lost his last 4, but Dibb,Fleming and co have never been hit as much as they did while fighting Shaw.
I agree Brute, the best fighter in his division should be the one who holds the Australian belt. And if i hadn't seen both Smith and Shaw fight prior to this matchup, i would probably agreed on that as well.

I can tell you for sure more fighters would contest the Aussie title if they are offered more $2500 the min Should be $4000.
There should also have mandatory defences and don't rate the guys who have moved past Aus title level as they are not going to fight for it. Maybe even purse bids the top promoter could bid to keep the title moving on Fox??
purse bids is the go for the ozzy titles i believe that's what they do for the British Title

This doesn't mean it will be easier to get more fights but
