No definite opponent for Tony Oakey for this weekend as yet. Darren Corbett's late pull out has really messed things up.

No, they're close to naming an opponent. Don't hold your breath though. Some of the names already put forward by Sports Network have been turned down by the Board they were that bad.

This bill is going to be very intriguing. I'm looking forward to one fight in particular.

Any details?? Or is this some private joke. Which is the fight your looking forward to.

Steve Spartacus sounded interested on Saturday at the Ally Pally, do you know if he is one of the names touted and turned down?

He wasn't among the two or three names I heard, but I'll find out more if I can...

Thanks Bennie, he was definately telling his supporters that he may get a shot at Oakey this weekend, just waiting for the call. He was pretty devastating on Satuday night, he blew Rasani away easily.

There was no joke. There may be an intriguing heavyweight match up which would be of interest to the majority, and would certainly make up for people's disappointment about Oakey-Corbett falling through. We'll have to wait and see.
