This dude was a good cruiserweight but a poor heavy. and he is over 40 years old. i wanted to have a better opponent for Dimitrenko because i will go there.

After Gomez has pulled out, the undercard for Veit-Calzone is not that great. Hope Calzone doesn´t repeat his first round ko.......

I was about to make a post, I think its a decent match.

Although, Al Cole last defeat was a bad one prior to that he ran some very good fighters close. A very close points loss to Rahman, he wasn't that far away vs Whittikar and ran Jeremy Williams to a draw.

He is respectable, even at heavyweight.

he is well past it Bubi.

was scheduled to fight skelton some time ago but withdrew.

Cole is a well past it "name"

Best days at Cruiser and, I think, his last noteworthy performance was beating that hyped up Vinnie Madelone(sp?)

That being said, he is an honest pro and wont roll over. Not sure what is to be gained from fighting him though

Yes, but Dimentrenko has got more time on his hands than Skelton. I see Cole as a decent step up.

From what I have seen, I quite like Dimentrenko - I think he can go to European level.
