Would five KO wins in five fights have anything to do with it?

I know Hilly pretty well and it has to be an injury or something for him to pull out. His dad and trainer Craig senior has a big wrap on him so i dont think it would have anything to do with Shaggy's record to pull out from the fight.

Maybe not the only one to pull out on those fights, more latter.

I think Giltrow and La Porto have fair excuses for not fighting King.

I think Loporto would be a step to far at this time for King.

The Giltrow fight is still on the schedule, but it is only an eight round fight.

Craig Hill pulled out due to an injury....would have been a good fight.

what about Rocky Jerkic???

I think Rocky is scheduled to fight Aswin Cubay the following week but would be a good scrap. Steve Della has a bloke from the UK named Paul King i think. He is 17 and 3 but hasn't had a fight over here yet.

Shannon had no takers, albeit promoter Di Carlo offered good coin...so he's now off the card :(
