It's ridiculous that they wait until a week or 2 weeks before the fight to announce opponents.

Would love to see him fight lemieux, no chance tho.

The worst thing about it is that they then use the short notice announcement as some kind of excuse for the weakness of the opponent.

Domenico Spada is probably the best that can be hoped for (I can't see any realistic domestic options).

I heard that Tibbs has Blackwell in for a full week of sparring for BJS and Buglioni so that may give an insight to the style of fighter they are facing .......or just wanting a good hard spar ?

Spada is in line for EBU.

Spada is fighting Rubio for the WBC Interim Title.

Personally think BJS takes Bursak now but it won't happen anytime soon.

IMO OKane would be an OK fight to win the Lonsdale belt outright.
