From what I have seen Clark,Simmonds,Butcher, Slowey and Cornish.. I also think there is a couple other that may get there in the next couple of years Roberts, Appleby(at lightweight).. John Simpson is already there more or less.. I think he should be fighting Buckland in the New Year.

what Butcher fight have you seen ?

Appleby at lightweight i wouldent be sure ,his form at SFW has been patchy i thought he was lucky to get the win against Ormond and obv his loss to John Simpson was a hard one to stomach ...

Simmons no doubt will end up fighting for the British title if he stays unbeaten over the next year. It's such a poor division in this country domestically though.

I should have said seen or heard about... I've heard very good things about butcher the rest I have seen.. Paul is naturally bigger he will do a lot better at lightweight. I agree ormond and Simpson fights weren't great but he needed a rest after the fight with Liam Walsh that was a gut wrencher.. Time will tell all these fighters more than capable given the right chances

Dave thank ronnie for the spar with ricky for me

In the Applebey fight your right It was a gut rencher, as for Butcher time will tell wont it ,he has to get passed Michael Ramabeletsa first who is talking a tough fight and like any fighter could be a potential banana slip but its iain first time over ten rounds, hes as strong as an ox but rambalesta i think will come to attack and will try and out muscle.

He has been enjoying the sparring was telling me about the shin to shin that kinda thing can only happen when Ronald's involved...

another show planned for Feb/March time mate

Paul, is working rt hard at it. He's made a gd go of it. Not an easy bizzness to break in2, even harder up this end of the country.

It is quite hard in Scotland to break through,and the stable has grown this year with a few novices , still a lot of hard work to be done mate but lets hope 2012 will be as good as 2012 !

Hope your well

Av, watched young Butcher for years. Plus we were in the same gym, for a time. Always new he had the potential. Was surprised he didn't sign wif 1 of the bigger promoters up here, but that's not held him back. Paul has, a real gd kid in him. Is he a big ticket seller? I think he must be, as he comes across well, seems to me like he'd be well liked thou his way. Which is a positive, he's not full of his oan bullshite.

Thanks for your assessment ,He does well with tickets ,hes a popular laddie in his area and that reflects well . and he isnae full of bullshit , hes an honest pro who just wants a go like most do . Props must go to his brother and his team aswell they do well to keep him in good shape

Yip, great wee team around him. Lot of time for them

Paul Graham is a breath of fresh air, his boys are kept busy and his shows are lowkey which is understandable given the climate.Its nice to see a what seems quiet manager/promoter going abour his business.

Aye, I agree there. It's not jet aboot the coin wif him, i see. He' all for his fighters. Takes it all wif him, as if he's in there wif em. Top block

Your time will come again with regards to boxing, too much knowledge to never be used

Not intrested at all, in that side of things. Ad rather spend ma time wif wee Millie, than down a gym.
