So who for Martin Rogan next?....

[clintuk]

According to boxrec he's been boosted to No.2 in the UK heavyweights after beating Skelton and No.16 in the world!! .... although I can't say he deserves to be 16th in the world after 12 pro fights, he still worked like a dog the other day and I actually enjoyed a Skelton fight!

So, any thoughts on who should be the next opponent in the Martin Rogan story?

Well hes had a fantastic year, but hes only fought on the British circut. If he crosses the pond, I doubt hell have too much sucess but theres only one way to find out. Despite his ranking, he needs to fight a Monte Barrett or Timor Ibragimov type fighter to see where he stands in the big picture. And he needs that fight to be outside the UK imo. Albert Sosnowki would be an interesting fight for him too.

He can be out boxed but the guy has a will to win at all costs which will only get him so far but its alway a good fight that he is in,and he has a good chin.He should defend the title he won a couple of times.

The fact that he beat Audley and stopped Skelton means he is a good fighter. Other than a shot at the title he should fight Danny Williams and finish this tier of fighters. All credit to him.

Bring on the Klitchkos, David Haye, Michael Flattley, The green Goblin, Osama Bin Laden, Lex Luther, Frank Bruno, Both Klitchkos together, Manny Pacquiao seein as hes so fukkin good, Bruce Lee, Margret Thatcher, The grumpy teacher out of Harry Potter. He will have them all.

But on a serious note, Martin "where to mate" Rogan should concentrate on defending the belt nobody saw him winning a year ago. If he keeps hold of it and impresses, takes on a couple of bigger known world names and beats them you just never know. But i will be honest and say that is a very long shot. He maybe has enough to defend what he has, and time isnt really on his side is it.

I hope im wrong but 1 defeat and his little adventure will be over and we wont hear much of him again. Id love him to win something massive.

Picture this.

In ten days time Gomez gets injured in training and pulls out of the bout with Klitschko senior.

With all tickets sold the fight has to go ahead but they can't get a replacement.

"Without a ranked contender what this fight is going to need is a novelty...."

Definitely a long shot for him to fight for anything big, but... would just be a great story if it continues...he seems like a pretty decent guy too.

How bout' Tyson Fury eh?... that'd be interesting if anything else

I'm already humming the theme tune

I'd love to see him in with that flabby mess James Toney, although with Toney's chin & technique there's almost no way he could win logically. TBH he's well above Danny Williams level right now, Williams lost to badly to Sosnowski last time out & looked crap against John McDermott before that.

Also he could go in against another of the faded US names like Hasim Rahman. Or stick him in with Tye Fields that would be good to watch

In the papers it says they will show the Rogan fight verses Skelton on BBC 1 Northern Ireland today at 10.45. It should be on the sky channel.
