    Edison Miranda. The bloke isn't a bad fighter and represents a step up for Bellew, though Bellew should be able to fininsh him. I'll be putting my money on Bellew in 7.

    I also hope that Froch gets Kessler, if so, I 'll have at trip to Nottingham on my hands in November time. I would also love to see Pricey take on Fury, but Fury has to stop fannying out, the big pikey.

    I'll probably end up going to the Price v Audley Harrison fight, but I'm not mega excited about it. Might take the missus.

    I think Froch Kessler next year mate, would be to much of a tough fight that one before the rematch against Bute next year, i see Froch Kessler probably a year in Sept/Oct time. Think Frich will fight Pavlik in the autumn. 

    I would like to see Price/Fury, but, it makes no financial sense really, 18months/2years down the line, they could be fighting for a world title against each other and there will be more money in it than if they fight now. Politics mate unfortunately! 

    When's the Bellew fight? Al look into this other guy as i don't know much about him tbh.

    SLIGHT learning curve fight, gets him another win, keeps him ticking over, and gives Audley another slightly OK pay day (that he doesnt deserve imo)

    I do see that logic but it's a no winner for him in terms of the fight game, if he smashes him it will be a case that Audley is a washed up fighter if he doesn't smash him it will damage his reputation, very strange move be his team this one and as you say it gives Audley a chance he does not deserve

    I'm glad that it turned out to be Audley and not Chisora, Chisora was mentioned, but I would rather his whole career was finished now, I would like Hayes to be aswell and I dont really want to see Price get involved with either of these two after the disgrace a few weeks ago. Problem is with Haye, he can't draw the crowds anymore, thats why he has to make it out as though there is a hate thing going on, exactly the same with Harrison, I hate , and I have no respect for him. I fought in the amateurs with and he couldn't beat me then, he wont beat me know., blah blah blah.

    I mush prefer Froch cause people go to see him box, he doesn't need to sell a fight, cause people who enjoy the sport, enjoy seeing him box. With regards Kessler, Froch will take him the moment he is willing to step into a ring with him, Froch has NEVER stepped away from a fight, and never will for any reason other than serious injury.

    The world needs a heavyweight to come in and clean up, knockout all comers and generally put a stamp of authority on hte game. The Klitschkos aren't bad, but there is something I just dont like about them, they seem to avoid challenges to often.

    There was 30,000 at Upton park Jacko, i can't agree with that mate.....

    Froch has never avoided a fight i agree, but, the last fight with him vs Kessler was tight, a rematch would be tight too. IF he were to lose it, he is then fighting Bute for nothing next spring as there will be nothing on the line. A fight against Pavlik makes more sense from that perspective, its nothing to do with ducking anyone. Its all politics. 

    The Klitschko's have no body left to fight mate, they have fought who ever is put infront of them, and thats all they can do, its not there fault that the heavyweight division is pish, but i cant think of anyone they have avoided during their reigns thats for sure.  I do agree it needs some one to come and stamp there authority, but, in all fairness they have done that for the last 8 years or so, and i just think people are getting bored of them being at the top of the table now.

    What I mean by that is that, if Haye went up and said, I am fighting Derek Chisora, it will be at Upton Park, will be a good fight, and that was it, there is absolutely no way on earth that 30,000 would of turned up. Problem is, it was all staged, evry single last bit of it, from the presser brawl to the BBBC controversy, every single bit of it was contrived. It was the controversy that sold the fight, not the fighters. Froch is the draw for his fights, not any furore surrounding it. Out of those 30,000 at Upton Park, what percentage do you think will go to a fight again? 25-30%? Less? It was for the cameras, for the media, all sorted to make them two as much money as possible. People only turned up because they though it would have a bit of needle.

    I probably don't disagree with a lot of this mate, but, your life span is short as a boxer, its all about making as much as possible whilst you can, as annoying as it is, and some of the matches you think what's the point, its just how it is unfortunately.
