He hasn't thought since May on the groves - froch undercard and no talk if his next fight?
Thought he'd surely appear on the joke of a PPV event coming up?

He tweeted a couple weeks ago saying he will be fighting on 29th November, that was before the show was brought forward.
Haven't heard anything since

Kevin just doesn't take boxing seriously.....he will not win a world title. I hope he doesn't regret how he is throwing away so many chances in later life

As a kid he was like a boxing zealot, maybe he's burnt out his enthusiasm.

Maybe he don't take it seriously enough but not fighting since may is out of his control

Not really, he said in an IFL interview that he was meant to be on the Oct 11 card but left it too late to get in the gym after his hols, sounds like he is his own worst enemy

if you look at his record he does this often enough
2014 - 2 fights so far.
2013 - 3 fights , won and defended IBF inter-continental title
2012 - 2 fights , fought for WBO world title
2011 - 1 fight , won the vacant WBO inter-continental
2010 - 2 fights , won WBO inter-continental and fought for interim WBO world title
he isn't one of the more active boxers and he hasn't fought more than 3 times a year since 2006 but he's staying around or there about fighting for a world title all the time.
