This thread illustrates how easily rumours can spread in boxing. I'm glad Smigga can see the funny side of it though :TU:

Smigga never walks away from a challenge - my good scouse pal will tell you he will meet anyone and I believe him - but would he beat Degale??

I think if I find better odds than 3/1 I might have a couple of quid on McDermott. Will be very surprised if this is the pushover that some people think, I'm sure Smigga doesn't see it as one

I'm sure smigga wouldn't be as glib as spud, no, no newsflash there, though.

If Smigga cannot get rid of Darren McDermott with relative ease at a weight higher than McDermott is used to then it will blow out the water everyones claims that Smigga is better than Domestic class.

Its a lose-lose fight for Smigga I am afraid and if I were his manager as stated when this fight was first declared - I would have never agreed to it.

You should make him an offer he can't refuse. "Make me your manager." Just don't use predictive texting, I once made the mistake of offering to be a manger and was pelted with corn seed.

you need to be a BBofC license holder to be a manager, and spud will get that far,
