It looks like the banking crisis has stooped to new levels

Barack Obama DID NOT win the United States of America presidential elections as it was not reported on fightnews.com , secondsout.com or nownews.co.uk FACT

Seriously though, this might have been a factor due to the exchange rate fall 'cause Jon Banks will be getting less than he expected if he is getting paid in £'s and then converting them to dollars.

I feel sorry for Maccarinelli if this is true.

Nothing worse than an opponent pulling out.

Sucks ass

No-one has offered any evidence that this fight is off- no links etc- its all just rumours.

Whicker you wont get evidence the fight is off because that is the way certain people work, its never announced until the last possible moment.

The fight is 100 per cent off

Who will he fight instead?

No Idea mate, if I get to hear I will let you know but unlikely I will know that because I believe once /if they get a new opponent then the announcement will be made to try and nail it all in one so to speak.

I presume to stay for the title it has to be someone in the top 15 or perhaps they will go with that Interim title crap and allow him to box anyone.

Who knows, rest assured the phones will be hot today

I think Hide be good fight, he not that good anymore.

I think this just serves to remind us that Froch-Pascal is the fight to watch.

I'll be honest, the Macca/Khan/Rogan based bill appeals to me more than Froch. However, take out Macca, then its a harder call to make. Larely a moot point, as it I don't have the Sky plus- so whatever I watch will really be up to friends on the night.

Its on sky site as enzo fighting tbc.

Fight news only report official stuff.

Well, there needs to be some kind of announcment soon, anyway! With how much notice did St Claire come in against Khan? I remember that was quite short notice.

No you misphrased that "St. Clair was so short, no-one noticed" is what you should have said.

I can back up REAL_DEAL. It is indeed Enzo v TBC now. It was Enzo v Banks yesterday. Source - Sky.

Banks' media workout day POSTPONED by Sports Network till later in the week. The plot thickens...

So who now....christ......got to be European hasn't it given the notice?

With 5 days to go TBC is now fighting in 7 of the contests on that bill, including against all three Walsh brothers, and Chisora as well as "Scream" Small and Cox.

Joking aside, this simply isn't attractive- I much prefere to know who the opponents are.

I was gonna buy this PPV. Not so sure now.

Late notice opponent for a 'world' title fight? Just goes to show what kind of joke title that WBO bauble is...
Rob Norton? Mark Hobson? Purleeeaaase. There's also no way in hell Fwank or Enzo would go anywhere near Herbie Hide, as chinny and 'old' as the crazy Nigerian is. It's also similarly impossible that Giacobbe Fragomeni would want to surrender his WBC belt, home advantage and a good training camp to fight the man blitzed in five minutes by David Haye. That just doesn't make sense.

So disappointing. Was really looking forward to see Enzo-Banks. No way I'm buying the PPV now.

Can anyone read Welsh? Wales/Hooky/Stu? My translator picked up the word "off".

I ran it through a translator, and unsurpisingly got jibberish;

Terry Dunstan

I hope Enzo isn't gifted the title like the last time he won the WBO. I thought he should of had a warm up before the banks fight but i think politics were to blame for that.

I get the Welsh BBC site article (written today) as

" He is being Enzo Maccarnielli searching about opponent news signs ôl I Jonathan Banks evoke he ' group duel receiving the Welshman. He was both I be I fight about we hatched weights rather - drum WBO the world crookedly I would sway ExCel crookedly London day Saturn. He is being tîm Maccarnielli doing them choirs I assure opponent other , except he ' is being heartburn unlikely the he will be crown world crookedly the balance for he drives duel he may assert.

"Searching about opponent new signs" ??? " Heartburn unlikley that he will be crown world..."

TEND to suggest a pull out.
