No fights since being stopped in March 2021 and apart from a tweet in April 2021 saying he will be back he seems to have got quiet. Any ideas?

Barely heard a thing from him. I’d assume he’ll be out once Frank actually starts announcing some some more shows.

Talk of him being the next Calzaghe was a tad premature. It will take him some time to recover from that defeat.

I think he’s got a fair bit of potential still. Not Calzaghe levels but could win a British title. For me the main issue was his matchmaking- I know fighters have to step up at some point but he went from journeyman to a decent British title level fighter and got badly stopped.

Agree. Has talent. Would've been better to have got back in there I think rather than having a prolonged break.

Clarke is a formidable man. It was too much.

Clarke is tough and game but far from formidable. Hutchinson was a massive favourite going into their fight. Was a good performance by Lennox. Unfortunately his career has stood still since due to heartbreaking issues out the ring. Hopefully his back soon defending his title. Always nice to see a local lad do well.

Talented guy (I've lauded him myself on here) but in need of a chin transplant or a far better defence if he wants to make a big splash.

If he's got any sense he'll get the hell away from the Ingle gym and get himself a much better trainer
A World Youth Gold Medalist of his ability and potential shouldn't be getting sparked out by someone of Lennox Clarke level.
Shane Mcguigan would be a good fit

What has McGuigan got which Ingle hasn't?

Technically, Dom has as well.

Actually just seen his Instagram page, more recent photos and videos of him training, also mention of a fight being announced soon by FWarren six days ago.

No chance. He’s a fighter through and through.

It's a forum for opinions pal
You Ingle Defence League, Sheffield boys are far too sensitive over anything said about that gym.
