He said, \u2018Rob&#8217;s next fight needs to be with a guy like Chris Billam-Smith, in that position. And that makes a lot of sense. He&#8217;s number three by the Ring Magazine. Rob&#8217;s number eight by the Ring Magazine. Rob&#8217;s number four by the WBO, Chris is number five by the WBO. Chris is number three or four by the IBF, Rob is number eight by the IBF. So we&#8217;re kind of like circling each other, essentially, politically. He&#8217;s a free agent.
