Brits who need to wisen up
First topic message reminder :
There are some really good all-Brit fights to be made at the moment. Some can wait IMO, such as Quigg v Frampton, as both are on course to meet further down the line for bigger money, but some of our Brits need to realize what their worth is and take the right challenge.
Firstly, Amir Khan. Someone needs to sit him down and explain that he is not some superstar whose name Brook shalt not speak. Khan has lost several fights now, been sparked twice and looks broken to some degree. He is not ready for any of the elite at 140 and to be honest, this star pulling power he seems to think he has isn't there. Go up to 147, take a warm up and fight Brook in a huge all British battle that would sell out one of the Sheffield stadiums and generate both fighters millions.
The British (and Irish) Middleweights. Guys, you have all lost in your world title challenges. Macklin, yes you performed well versus Martinez, but you were KO'd. Lee, you seem to realize that after your Chavez Jr loss you are best of taking on the Brits for good money in a 4-way tourney. Murray, great performance v Martinez, and I think you see sense. Barker, by all means take on Chavez, but again, you were KO'd by Martinez and will likely lose to jr as there is no way you can stop him. GGG may finish Macklin at world level, he will certainly stop him, so here's hoping these guys see sense and let Hearn put on a 4 man tourney with SKY once they are all free.
Tyson Fury. Time to decide what you want. You wont get Vitali as he is going to retire. And it is obvious that Wlad would kill you. You're not going to be the best heavyweight out there, not any time soon, so why not take huge money and fight Haye. Neitehr of you are better than Wlad, a nd again this would sell out a footy stadium and generate at leat 5 million each.
Bellew. Either come out swinging or shut up. Simple.
Cleverly. Fight a meaningful fight. Why on earth do you need another tune up. Your entire career is a tune up. A unification with Bhop would trump Bhop's mandatory, but failing that fight Shumenov. If it isn't Bhop, Shumenov or Brahmer then it is a joke.
