Hatton, Woods and Pickering are all in legit title fights on the same bill in May.

Hatton is in the US cause the yanks are craving him
The two other uk guys are in the land of Queensberry.

Yeah!
Wish Itv tried to get them though as they'd be bigger names fighting there especially since two of them are genuine world title holders!

Congratulations Brits. Things like this only happen once every several years with countries not named USA or Mexico. I hope you all enjoy it.

Probably have to go back to the Lennox Lewis Panix era for something similar...
Graham V Brewer, Dunstan v Mayfield, Lewis V Briggs, Austin V Lloyd

The last name i heard for Woods was an Italian called Pietro Aurino (he's lost to Johnny Nelson & Juan Carlos Gomez).
I'm also presuming that Pickering will be facing the IBF featherweight champion Valdemir Pereira (if i'm correct this was on the board about a week ago)
.
Hopefully the UK fights will be at the Sheffield Arena, which is bout 10 minutes from my digs

Aurino - I've seen his cruiserweight world title fights. he and nelson stank out the arena. if i remmeber rightly johnny broke the monotony by stopping him with a head clash...aurino must've bene on the toilet all week after those body shots by JCG.
but he is a good counter punching southpaw & i always thought he was too small to be a cruiser. not such a bad matchup. bring on Glengoffe afterward for CW

Woods will probably fight Jason DeLisle
Pickering is fighting Perrera (spelling?)
Hatton will fight Harris.

Can't see Woods fighting DeLisle, he beat him in 12 rounds a couple of year back, surely team Woods would look else where.
