Just seen on Ringside that he might be fighting Demarcus Corley or Julio Diaz awful matchmaking if either of these come off

Not good at all. I reckon the winner of Mcalister v Shafikov would be better opponent!

Should cash in on the Khan Petterson fight and try and get Anthony Petterson over and make it a WBA eliminator

We were saying before (months ago) that Julio Diaz would be acceptable for Burns.... I think he would be acceptable for McCloskey also. Demarcus Corley no - it would be back to 2008 when he was beating Bezan and Garnacia.

He's only won 2 off his last 5

Katsidis. Winnable fight against someone who will give it 100%, and will push the action.

Maybe, but his 3 defeats were against quality operators and one of his wins was against a Ngudjio who isn't a bad fighter.

I think he is certainly on a similar level to Bredis Prescott.
