A few weeks ago, I asked what has happend to Roman Karmazin - I think Mr King must have read that post. He is now scheduled to face Keith Holmes (another one whose dissapeared) in an eliminator for the IBF title. That could be a tasty match and the winner vs the excellent Ouma would also be tasty.

Its scheduled on the 2nd April, with Riveria vs Damngard and Braithwaite vs Mormeck.

Good bill.

Not sure how much Keith Holmes has left, he seems to have been around for ages now. Good fight but Karmazin has been pretty inactive hasn't he?

Yes, Holmes is probably more effective at LM anyhow.

From now to May is scorching for the light-middles. First, there's Holmes vs. Karmazin, then just over a month later it's Castillejo vs. Mayorga, then the week after that it's Trinidad vs. Wright. I'd also like to see Ouma vs. Santos in the near future.
I hope, somehow, we end up with a unified champion by the end of next year or so.

I'd like to see Verno Phillips in the mix still also, looking at Ouma vs Jantuah - Phillips did a much better job.

Barry McGuigan mentioned on Sky that Jantuah beat Santos, surely a fight in the future.

And there is Sergio Martinez who deserves a big fight.

got to be said there seem to be a lot of important matchups being made suddenly. from featherweight all the way up to middleweight things are looking pretty good.
