Quite surprised, especially as he is 22 now.

Not fooled for one minute.

Bit of redemption at the Euro's at 64kg and the pro in the New Year once he's heard the Am's offer.

Fancied going to the euros as its just down the road, same night as haye's fight though, no contest really.

Still don't think he'll even stay for the Euro's... think this PR is also known as touting for better offers.

Although maybe he does want a bit of a added marquee value by winning the Euro's.

He's still World Amateur Champion! And he WILL win the Europeans...even at 64kg.

Who cares what he does as an amateur between now and 2012?

The onus is now on him to redeem himself and staying amateur wont erase Beijing, unless he stays the full 4 years, which could ruin his pro chances.
