		I know, and I agree. I wuz just having you on a little bit cause I know how much you love Katie. I've never been that impressed with Shields, whereas Katie fights the best opponents, Serrano in particular, and brings more action with her fights. Shields reminds me a little of Laila Ali. Lots of glamour and style, a very good boxer, but not all that interesting to watch. Katie, on the other hand...

		Looks like Hemi Ahio is in the frame to fight Whyte. A real opportunity to fight a top British fighter, and I think Ahio can outwork him, and maybe even stop him. Hope it happens...

It looks like someone has been paying attention:
Francis Waitai is set to defend his IBO Asia Pacific Super Middleweight Title against unbeaten challenger Mikey Helg on June 29th at the Due Drop Events Centre. This all-Kiwi clash is one of the most compelling matchups currently possible in New Zealand boxing.
