    Don't know whether he won or not.

    He looks like he can become a champion but he needs to work hard and change a few things IMO. His loss to Facey was a major setback but a good learning experience and he has looked better and better each time out afterwards.

    Just seen the news an he won it,Ref stopped it in the 3rd round.Fairplay to him.

    Yes have to agree he will be a good champion very soon he did take a step back after the loss but was in great form against the durable Michael Monaghan and looked very solid

    Yes, he certainly has the power to cause a few problems. Can he do it at the top level? I'm not sure but let's hope so. I think he should go after someone like Gary Lockett next and have a high profile British fight.
