Does anyone know what is happening with Nicki Smedly? Another talented kid -needs to fight regularly and he can achieve a lot as well, i think + lets not forget Steve Barnes Jnr. I'm very fond of everyone from Sheffield and its great to see the kids do so well and the established champions coming back -Ryan and Junior.

I was told Dennis Hobson gave Smedley his contract back. Dennis has got a kid called Joe Elfidh who looks a prospect.

Trust me, I've been there, and I know you'll be hurting just as much as Kev.
There's always a light at the end of the tunnel - I've gone up, down, and roundabout with Ry, but what we've always said it's the manner of dealing with a loss that says the right thing about a boxer.
He can, and will come again.
Good luck mate.

No bother mate Cheers

Kev says he was signing up for this Boxrec so he could "dig me out a hole" after me bigging him up
Yea defo coming back obviously just bit shocked with it all
but Boxing is a Cruel sport and hes came back before

He used to get annoyed about getting beat off a Boy called Richard hatton in the Amateurs
Look at him now

I think a few more defences of his British belt are in order first - I would go Doherty, Hatton, Watson and then move up to European class. He's still young so there's no rush as long as he's not being given pushovers. Perhaps when Jennings gets beat off Cotto then you could stick him in with Brook. I just want to see Kell clean up domestically first because there's a lot of good fights out there, and like I say, he does have age on his side.

Jackiewicz has a defence lined up at the end of the month, should he win. Maybe Kell could get a look in after that. Its a winnable fight for him.

As for Mcintrye, he's been through lows like this before and comeback. Its a hard defeat that he had. He never recovered from that first knockdown. Kev did show fighting heart to get up from the 2nd knockdown , when that right landed i thought no way would he get to his feet, but he did.

Great thing is that new friendships have been formed as well.
Ezekiel is going places - no doubt at all.
And when you think back to all those "biscuit" jibes etc, I have to have a snigger to myself because I have a long memory, and some of those people taking the piss then, are giving it the "I told you so" line now.
Hey but that's boxing - tomorrow's chip paper and all that.

well like sheffield-boxin said hes gone down to lightwelter plus didnt he pull out of a fight with kell once?

sheffield boxin wrote:kell can make light welter but it kills him. there's hardly any fat on him at welter so would struggle to meet 10stone. if anything he will prob move up to lightmiddle as he grows.

Personally I think making light welter would be too much for him and he would be drained at lightwelter.

Emma your opinion on boxing is like me making an opinion on sky diving, ps i dont know nothing about sky diving
