Seems to have been inactive since his 2nd loss whats going on with him? dose anyone think he is a reallistic prospect, I only ever saw him robbed against Gary Beardsly but he looked resonably skillfull there.

He is a british fighter who is light middle, not a world beater but looked to me to be at the standard of a national title. I just saw him on the under card of a carl froch bout I was watching on video today and got to thinking.

think he is injured at the moment, should be back fairly soon though. his two losses as a pro were both very disputed results one against gary beardsley ( who he beat in a rematch) and one against the strong jason collins who he also holds a stoppage win against. i watched nearly all his fights a few years back on his road to the aba title and he was awsome, he stopped 7 out of his 8 opponents on the way to winning the light-middleweight tittle beating opponents such as sam webb, daniel cadman, micheal rennie and in the final stephen birch. most of his fights as a pro seem to have been at middle or even up round the supermiddleweight division but i believe if he can get back down to light middle again he could be a defenate force in the next few years.
