Arthur v Cook

comment on the article

It has been announced that Alex Arthur will defend his WBO Superfeather belt against Nicky Cook in September. www.frankwarren.tv/drill/New...
Cook, who was unlucky not to get his shot against Harrison for the Featherweight belt and was later outclassed by Lueveno for the Belt harrison vacated, is getting another world title opportunity.

Will Cook finally claim a world title or will the bigger man in Arthur have too much power for him?

Also Amir Khan on the card against the ever dangerous TBA.

Khan should steer well clear of TBA - the man's a beast! When he was fighting at Flyweight a year ago he looked a big hitter. He's still active now and is not shot by a long way, whatever the experts say. Top 10 Lightweight for sure. After a warm-up fight against TBA Amir should win all world titles at all weights at once.

Sorry, Alex Arthur / Nicky Cook. I fancy Arthur to win but still feel that neither is good enough to mix it with the big names in the division. The winner should prove me wrong by challenging one of the other title holders.

Cook is a little maggot of a man. His face causes a great deal of anger in me every time I see it. I hope Arthur gives him a good pasting, to be honest.

Alex Kid will smash Cook within 6 rounds. This point aside it will still be a more interesting fight than Amir Khan's. Unless we're all being fooled and TBA is really Pacman/Diaz x3/Katsidas/Romonov/cassmayor/
Campbell...Come on FW show us all up!
