COVENTRY'S OWN FAVOURITE NEIL SIMPSON FROM WILLENHALL HAD BEEN DUE TO FIGHT TONY OAKEY FROM PORTSMOUTH ON MARCH 18TH IN THE SECOND DEFENCE OF HIS TITLE.THIS FIGHT HAD BEEN POSTPONED IN SEPTEMBER WHEN NEIL BROKE HIS WRIST IN TRAINING . OAKEY ACCUSED NEIL OF WASTING EIGHT MONTHS OF HIS CAREER, BUT NOW THE FIGHT WAS TO GO ON IT SEEMS QUITE CLEAR THAT OAKEY NEVER HAD ANY INTENTION OF GETTING IT ON WITH SIMMO.

GOOD LUCK IN YOUR NEXT DEFENCE NEIL.

AN INTERESTING ARTICLE BY CLIVE BERNATH FROM SECONDS OUT.COM

IMAGINE A MINI KNOCKOUT TOURNAMENT BETWEEN CLINTON WOODS, DARREN CORBETT, NEIL SIMPSON, AND TONY OAKEY. SIMPSON ALREADY LOST (CONTROVERSIALLY) TO CORBETT ON POINTS A FEW YEARS AGO, BUT THE COVENTRY MAN HAS IMPROVED SINCE. WOODS WOULD PROBABLY EMERGE THE VICTOR, BUT OAKEY IS THE ONE WHO MAY SURPRISE A FEW PEOPLE. NEVER THE LESS GREAT FIGHTS FOR THE FANS.

THANKS JIM.
