Selkirk v Al Harbi for me. That would be a cracker.
Tom Costello would give anyone on that list serious trouble. Couple more fights for Tom (perhaps one at area level or a ten rounder against decent opposition) and he'll be ready I reckon. When he's 100% he is a joy to watch.

Yes Insider, Thomas is a good lad with a great right cross, your are right he needs one or two competitive ten rounders, before he makes an assault on a big title, due to inactivity, then he will knock doors down, but he is a middleweight now, so he will be chasing Billie Joe, Barker, Hope and Murray ect..

True Naj, he was close to super middle last time I watched him at the civic. Could he still squeeze into light middle if he needed to? Middle is the better division if you ask me so that's where I would be aiming domestically. Conception would be a good test for a midlands belt.

i hope so, saw his debut years back and he looked fantastic, hope he starts going places.

Joe Selkirk turned professional long before Ochieng. What is happening with him? allegedly is a big promoter what is the issue?
