Witter/Hatton is well ahead so far

Hatton v Witter (and it would be even better on terrestrial television)

Earl v Vanzie III (this fight really ought to be made)

Hare v Barnes (I think HARE wins this big)

Oboh v Woods (never going to happen, but an intriguing test for Oboh)

Thompson v Nelson II (I think Nelson stops him late)

I'd hate to see Thompson v anyone good (that includes Nelson). I really like Carl and can see him getting really hurt.

Gomez-Arthur II would be worth a look!

There was evidence in the Uriah Grant fight to support the 'I dont want to see Thompson in with anyone very good' theory.

Nelson would be a bad fight for Carl, granted. But it would be an interesting story and the division needs that impetus as does the autumn of Johnny's career.

I think Nelson would do a bigger number this time round than Last, Thompson is badly gone, had Rothmann been able to plant his feet and punch he would and really should have had him out of there.

great ko though, credit where credit is due, thompson pulled it out the bag, but I agree he sould get taken to task by Nelson and it would be long and systematic, I think Haye is a better fight generating more interest and a garaunteed slug fest for 3 rounds with Haye KO-ing the Cat
Personally I think Carl should hang up his gloves but I know he wont.

Yes, funnily, I think Carl would get less badly hurt by Haye, it would be a swift and thunderous KO, wheras the light fisted Nelson would hammer him relentless for many rounds before he went over.

Barnes v Vincent II

Farnell v Takaloo II

Gomez v Johannson

Haye v Enzo

Robinson v Kelly

Haye v Enzo would be a cracker whilst it lasted. As someone at the BBC joked when it looked like the fight might actually happen on the Beeb for a while.

'Battle of the chinny bangers'

yeah shit thats a goodie Johanssen Gomez .....he is coming on strong Carl ......

I've enjoyed what I've seen of Johannsen, got that rugged 'American' style, don't see him being good enough to break world class, and will probably be another Adrian Stone, way too good for domestic level, not quite good enough to make it at world level.

we got a lot of fighters like that hey..woods to name but one

Yep, no shame in that really, considering how many more fighters there are in the USA than UK, we do alright.

indeed we could do better but I dont wanna start on that just back and relaxed from another break hahaha

and chas symonds was gonna win Jim I told you on the night.

Yes, J, of course, I'm sure you predicted that after getting heavily decked in the second, he would cut James whilst boring in with the 'heid' and open his eye up like a horse's fanny, thus causing a stoppage due to the ridiculous nature of British boxing board rules.

Genius.

Don't you mean the Ezra Sellers fight, David?

Haye vs Maccarinelli

Docherty vs Arthur

Vanzie vs Murray 2

Barnes vs Jennings (is it even worth hoping for)

Lockett vs Farnell

Takaloo vs Williams

I'd also like to see Vincent get another shot at Barnes, and as Mr Payne says, Earl should have to rematch Vanzie.

Vanzie-Murray II. Good call.

now now James, I was right you were wrong, repeat, recite and learn...

Carl Johanneson vs alex arthur would be nice

then for a shot at gomez good call R.D.

Does anyone think they'll ever have the Danny Williams vs Audley Harrison fight they went on about for so long.

Not unless Audley fights and beats Skelton, then I think Danny will get a look in.

Mind, if Danny beats Tyson, he'll be thrown in against some far bigger names, probably lose again, and then meet Audley on the way down.
