Exactly FR,
Like I said, I'd be curious about him fighting Bellew or Clev as the next man.
But from a safety point of view, he's not lost valiantly on the cards a few times during his defeats - he's been absolutely pole-axed.
To suggest his punch resistance will improve, by taking that 6'3 frame down to 12.5 stone is nonsense. Look at Chris Byrd or whatever his name was, duking it with Klitschko in one fight, getting splattered by a journeyman in his next.
I confidently forecast that flaky chin will only get flakier and we'll see another crushing loss yet again.

Chris Byrd dropped 40lbs and he got flattened by Shaun George if my memory serves me correctly I remember seeing it on a ESPN Friday Fight Night which were shown on Channel 5.

That's right mate. Bad stoppage.

And the first knockdown looked bad as well with the second knockdown Jay Nady got the call right.

Byrd went from heavy to light-heavy and looked ill when he weighed in, he should have dropped to cruiser instead.
Enzo isn't dropping the same amount of weight that Byrd did and just from his face he looks cut, I don't think there is a comparison.

Byrd is only just over 6 feet tall and is shorter than Enzo by 3 or 4 inches. Also he was barely much above Cruiser weight himself when he campaigned at heavyweight as he was usually around 210.
I hope your right Don as I think this could be one of the worst moves in a long time for any British fighter.

Yes we know, you've already posted that fact!

Yeah Gomez odds on that the next loss will be another KO and it would be awful to see him get destroyed again.

Enzo comes across as such a nice bloke. Watching that video I cant help but wish him the best of luck.
I really hope he knows what he's doing in dropping down. Id hate to see him fighting dead at the weight and suffering another brutal knockout or a terrible sustained beating.
