October 24 in Sheffield, he's fighting an inexperienced Aussie for the IBF number two spot. Great match by Dennis Hobson. A third fight with Glen Johnson isn't out of the question for Woods if he wins. Johnson praised Hobson for the way he was treated in Sheffield after the first two fights.

Glen's a class act and I thought the promotion was too, worth it for Thompson v Rothmann alone! I liked the fact that the hometown crowd acknowledged Glen's victory for what it was.

How Woods stayed on his feet in those early rounds is beyond me, he really took a shellacking early on.

Whilst it's hardly Gatti v Ward, I have no objections to them fighting a third time if they both want to, but Johnson has some better offers coming his way I feel. He may want a tune up, though in fairness to Clinton, he's a bit better than a tune-up fight.

I would be trying to pursue for a shot at Fabrice Tiozzo for the WBA title. Woods doesn't have that much time and I think Tiozzo is as easy as some of these eliminator matches planned.

Tiozzo is there for the taking for either Woods or Oboh.
