youll be back as liverpools best boxer in no time

A Rematch with John Simpson for his Featherweight Commonwealth belt would be a good fight for you in the future seeing as you beat him the 1st time, is that a fight you'd like?

Good to see you here Derry! Good to have a few local lads on the boards!

Hopefully you are back in title contention in no time fella, you've got a huge local fanbase!

good to have you on here derry. Hopefully you will have a few fights in liverpool soon, and fighting for titles.

Welcome Derry, Good luck to you are you looking for a rematch with Ramagodi that was a poor decision

Thanks.

There are plenty of good opponents at Super Featherweight on the domestic/European level, so I'll look forward to seeing you against those guys.

Good luck.

cheers mate apprecite it

Hi Derry. I think you vs Ricky Burns would be an excellent fight. With Johansen, Foster Jnr and Gomez either faded or in semi-retirement and Mitchell preparing to move into world level there are lots of opportunities and I wish you all the best.

On a side note who do you think would win in a fight between Lindsay and Simpson? I figure your in the perfect position to make a call on that having been in with both guys.

Cheers mate.

Welcome mate

Good to hear your going up a weight, it can only be beneficial for you. IMO, you never looked comfortable at the lower weights.

Good luck for the future .

Thanks Derry. Your fight with Martin was a good one and the shot he hit you with would have downed an elephant. Lindsay really impressed me against Paul Appleby but I think the young Scot was in there a bit too early. I agree that Simpson looks better with every fight and I also give him a slight edge against the Irishman. Should be a great fight if it ever comes off. All the best mate!

Who is your trainer Derry? Are ya doing much training at the mo?
