They've wanted a final eliminator with Alexander or a Bradley rematch since Witter lost the belt. Ingle's good at his job but would not have 'made' this match in the usual sense.
Precisely. Ingle may have wanted the opponent - but Hennessy would have done the lobbying to get the fight made an eliminator.

One would have thought that the WBC made this fight not John Ingle!

Well, as you well know BC - fighter rankings are hardly independent from the honeyed words of promoters now are they?

Correct on the former. Arum has really slashed his prices. You can see Mosley v Margarito for $25.
King's cards are always the best quality. Just look at the 14/2 bill for proof.

Just read on the current scene that they are trying to make Witter vs Mike Alvarado for the undercard of Pavlik-Rubio/Jennings-Cotto.....any truth to this?
Mike Alvarado:
