If it is Darren Stubbs then given by fight time my opponent will have had 8 weeks notice, as for being avoided?? Obviously I'm not avoided Anymore but to be honest I'm happy about that, all I'll say is "can he ko him??" YES I CAN... All the best for the new year eh

Just a quote for the tough guy only that mate, I think Audley is the last fighter on the planet I'll ever be compared to in all honesty :wink:

What you looking to get out of this fight Bomber ? Stubbs is 39 and despite winning the last twice, he's not really worthy of a Commonwealth title fight in my book. Taken to points last time by Hastings Rasani who Mcintosh dispatched in three rounds. Stubbs is just a steady domestic level pro whos got a heavily padded record against 'opponents' at the end of the day. Mismatch.

Is this for the vacant British???

This is what I don't understand. I understood that Bomber wouldn't give McKenzie if his next opponent was a step-up. This is a step-down, IMO. I would much rather see Bomber/McKenzie II. It would also make Frankie's next PPV easier to sell.

At least he's keeping busy and active? So long as the rematch happens.

Precisely, but I doubt it will happen if it doesn't happen within the next 6 months.

Just bought tickets for this show. I've never been to York Hall before, only really been to the larger venues like the O2 Arena, MEN and Nottingham Arena so quite looking forward to it.

Presumably the views are good from anywhere you sit given the small size of the venue?

If you have a normal ticket you can sit anywhere other than ringside. If you get there early enough that includes the seats just behind ringside. The view from the balcony upstairs is great but quite hard to get into (or back into) once it starts going.

I'm not a matchmaker and I'll never try telling my matchmaker or manager what to do, like I always say, I'll fight anyone, I'll say this much though I feel Darren Stubbs is better than Billy Boyle!! IMHO, yet no one says a thing when he is contesting the British title, I have just fought 2 guys no one wants to fight in Ajisafe and McKenzie,

I wanted McIntosh but it's not happened, I seem to remember Danny Mc fighting Rasani instead!! The same Rasani I stopped in the first round!! Once again not much said about that?? If it is to be Stubbs then he has wins over prospects such as John Ibbotson and is a prizefighter finalist too!! The guy comes to fight and messing round with fighters in the last chance saloon bar is always highly dangerous IMO..
