Think Derry and Crolla would be a cracker, both can box got good engines, but think Derry has the bigger dig, hope this comes off later in the year :box:

I met Derry in the gym last week, he's a top bloke and he was working his arse off. Good on the lad, i hope a fight with Crolla comes off

Yeah he's a great fighter to watch all action, doesn't mind getting into a war.
Hopefully he's turned the corner.

Matthews is proof that just because the wheels come off doesn't mean you can't put them back on again, so fair play to him, he's shown some real steel to come back and get back in the mix.

X 2..... I did doubt Derry at one stage and I must admit I thought he would call it a day again after Prizefighter. You know what they say about thinking about retirement, usually one setback in a comback means a final retirement.

I am very glad Derry, who came out of that prizefighter without the big money but with alot of credit and an enhanced reputation, has decided to give it a proper go. Seems like the old love for the game is back.

I would love to see Matthews vs Choi 3 - irrespective of what happens between Choi and Asiku.
