Kerry Hope joins James Todd on US fight card

Kerry Hope has been picked as a last-minute replacement for former world champ Carl Daniels, who was supposed to fight Caleb Truax in Saint Paul, Minnesota on Friday November 20th. I suppose this has something to do with Hope not facing Matt Korobov this past weekend.

Just thought you ferners might like to know, since the news doesn't seem to be traveling very fast.

Wise move not to fight Korobov. Though word is Korobov didn't look so good Saturday.

Daniels should show us where Ceri is. Daniels loses to anyone even half decent these days.

I should have been more clear - Hope is replacing Daniels and will be fighting 13-0 (10) Caleb Truax on Friday in St Paul. Daniels, I hear, is in jail.

This is the same card on which Todd will be fighting 14-2 (10) Mohammed Kayongo.

These fights are tomorrow night (Friday). Any calls?

I've got Truax over Hope by late KO and Todd over Kayongo by decision.

I've decided that Hope is hopelessly (ha!) overrated.

I think that Toddy will lose TKO round 3 and that Hope will lose on Points ;;-)

any fighter early on has alot of potential if they want it shame to think how many great fighters there could have been if not matched so hard early on in their careers

his third fight was against a guy that had like 150 amateur fights and won 140 odd isnt that being matchd hard? and its his trainer and matchmakers responsibility to advise him on fights anyone would take that fight for any sort of title
