The guy is full of shit enzo has offered to fight hobson but he way over priced himself in order for the fight not to go ahead.
Macca has already said he would fight him in his home town or kitchen if he wanted for free.

I don't believe that. Enzo took the WBU title route to avoid Hobson and his British title. If he was so determined to fight Hobson, why did he go down that route?
PS: Hobson is desperate to win a Lonsdale Belt outright. He's one notch away, and is looking for a suitable British opponent. Why not issue a public challenge on behalf of Enzo if what your saying about your man is true? Send a letter to "Seconds Out".
I'm sure Hobson would accept.

Over a week ago Team Hobson approached Team Macca to discuss the fight on Sept 3rd. Team Macca said they were going a completely different route money was never mentioned because Team Macca said that the fight would be more viable in 12-18 months time. No fight has ever been offered to Hobson by Maccas team. So go back and find out who's lying to who.
A similar situation happened on another boxing forum. Hobsons' team were completely exonerated and an aplogy was offered to Team Hobson stating that no fight had been offered to Team Hobson by another so called leading Cruiser. There are a lot of people on this site who will have read that thread and I'm sure now will be backing Hobson to acheive his aim to prove himself the best Cruiser in Britain. While it seems others are not as confident in their fighters.

Reeso mate, MAY is a big word in Boxing as we often discover to the cost of big fights.

If Enzo was fighting good opponents in defence of his laughable WBU title, I might believe you. But the opposition has been of the gift variety and continues in that vein against a faded Dane next month.
Thus Enzo's claims he wants to fight a live fighter like Hobson don't hold up.

A while back we had a great year ahead in the domestic light-middles, but it all came crashing down as one by one they lost.
Now we have two cracking divisions in the Cruiserweights and the Lightweights and we could see some top domestic match-ups, in the lightweights case we have already seen three in Cook/Bennett, Earl/Vanzie and Earl/Murray, and we have Hunt/Meager and Phillips/Bennett happening soon.
On the 10th of next month we have Haye/Thompson and then the winner fighting the winner of Hobson/Macca!

In the real world of boxing what Maccarinelli says means absolute shit just like what Hobson says means shit.
But what does mean something is that Team Hobson(not Hobson) approached Team Maccrinelli(not Maccarinelli) to do the fight on Sept 3rd.If Maccarinelli had any balls he could go and ask the team if they have any knowledge of this.I'm sure with a little bit of internal questioning they will find that the question was asked.
If it comes back as a negative then more details will be released as to who asked who,when and where.
But I will tell you this all Maccarinelli will find out one way or another is that Mark Hobson's services were offered approx 10 days ago for the date in September.

It's depressing that the best fighters don't meet any more because of the number of crappy options available in the form of crappy world titles. Can you imagine Ali and Frazier never meeting throughout their careers? You can today.

So why does your loverboy keep fighting overmatched bums then? He has even said before on Sky that he needed two-three more fights before he would fight Nelson and co. Well, thats 1 fight down now. (What a dismal showing by the way). Why doesn't he call out the big boys now?

Whatever Team Hobson say is far more factual in my brief experience.
Experience tells me on another forum that other peoples version of events is often skewed or ill-informed.
Some people got very

recently.
