Dorian Darch

According to his Twitter he was hauled up before the Board recently as he's been stopped in his last four fights.

He's been permitted to continue with his career but wouldn't you assume he'd have to 'drop down a level' for a couple of fights?

Guess what?

He's down to face Simon Valilly (recently moved up to heavy, recently scored a one punch KO of Jone Volau)

Dorian's getting stopped again :doh:

It's time to find another career. I hate when I see guys hang on who are destined for beating after beating.

He's a lovely bloke Dorian (his Twitter is hilarious) and game as f*ck, but he can't punch (one stoppage win) and he's not the most elusive, so he's not really suited to being a 'journeyman'

It's a poor match this I just hope he doesn't get bashed up too much.

Vaililly is a step down from some of the people Darch has been in with he's small and wasn't that good as a cruiser good fight for both men.

I think his problems at cruiser were that he didn’t keep his power when dropping weight.

Rather than keeping his power when moving up a weight it is likely he will have more

Dubois, Joshua, Hughie Fury, Eddie Chambers.

Yes but as stated in my OP he was up before the Board for losing/being stopped in his LAST four, apart from Dubois all the names you list were from 4/5 years back.

I would say that Valilly is better than: Bennett, Webb and Dickinson who have all stopped Darch recently.
