Now he has signed with Matchroom he will get the big fights he deserves.
How far can he go?

He is 35 so time isn't on his side. European at the very best.

I hear you but he now has the No 1 promoter in Britain. Money talks. if Fast Car wants to get him to the top quickly im sure he will!

More likely he will defending his British against one of Hearns other boys at a similar weight. Essentially will be a stepping stone, but of course whoever wins, Eddie will come with the champion and leave with the champion

I'm pleased for Hamilton but there's not point in being placed at the top and getting pounded a la Lee Purdy.

Hamilton allway's comes ready & has a deep seated hunger within & you can tell fearon loves that & is really helping the lad out

They are maybe looking for Darren to defend his title against Tom Stalker at some point next year?
Darren struggled with the movement of Adil Anwar and Eddie might see him as an ideal step up opponent for Stalker who has lots of talent and great footwork when he uses it.
I'm not saying Tom Stalker would win but with his pedigree it is a winnable fight.
It will also show what Tom Stalker will do in the pro ranks when he has a limited but very strong, fit hungry fighter on his case for 12 rounds.

Chris Jenkins in Cardiff Feb 1st or too soon?

I'd expect a fight with Curtis Woodhouse next on the Coyle undercard in Hull in February. Can't see him going past domestic level though, strength will only take you so far and at 35 time isn't on his side. Should look for a fight with Willie Limond for the Commonwealth title.

Exactly. Fast car Eddie knows the deal.
