When will Mark Hobson fight again and who will it be against?

Probably Haye the two of them put all the the work into generating a Buzz around it and soon they could both have a title the other wants. pleas boxing god in the sky

I'd still like to see Haye Vs Hobson, but I think if Haye becomes European champion which I expect he will, then if the Hobson fight does not happen in the following fight, Haye would have to move on and target more top ranked world fighters or he'd be looking for a world title shot.

On world level its getting good with the Undisputed Cruiserweight World Championship fight coming up soon.

And of course our own Johnny Nelson I wonder will Nelson get a shot at making his the fourth belt in the mix. Can't see it myself.

I think the fight might still go ahed even if it isn't immediat. Hobson would be a legitimate European title defence and would bring in a resonable aduiance. Haye's team must appriciate that as he hasn't won passed the 5th round classic boxers who can frustrate haye for a few rounds would be good for his development.

Yes thats very true what you said, if Haye would hold the European for a while then Hobson could well happen. Haye certainly does need to get rounds in the bank as he needs that when the time comes to dig deep in a fight.

What would you think about a rematch with Carl Thompson and Haye next year?

Im kind of torn, I would like to see it because it is a pick em fight, and would be a legitimate contest for European honners, would also be good if Haye could bannish the one loss of his carrer. On the other hand Carl is getting old and if the fight does happen and he looses it will not do his body much good.

If Haye doesn't get rounds in his next fight then booth should consider putting him in against ether a Hobson type opponent or a light punchin Heavyweight because at some point in his carrer he is going to have to go the distance because the guys at the very top get hit less and thus are less likely to go down in 4 and he will need those rounds against a good opponent.

I can't see Haye wanting to make too many European title defences if any and I can't see him being too keen to give Hobson a fight and a big payday. If Haye loses to Gurov, I think Hobson won't want to give Haye a way back but will realise there aren't a lot of options out there for him.

Maybe a Arslan rematch to try and settle the score? Rothman again maybe? Think Thompson and Haye will be looking at title fights and I can't see Enzo's people wanting him in the ring with Mark.

He must need to defend commonwealth soon
