They even said that Ajasif just looked shit hot on the night n in all fairness no excuses were made but Travis recieved a terrible (n I mean terrible) cut in sparring about 2 months before the fight so he needed to be out of sparring for a while which is terrible against Ajasif, obviously Ajasif is a strong kid too so Travis is just taking a step down in class n working his way back up.

Even Ronnie Rowe (birtley trainer) said regarding Dolan that it's his last chance, so he really will be up for it. I've got a feeling this is going to be a ******* of a card.

Speaking to jaffas dad and he said he is putting together the undercard and travis ain't on it or at least he knows nothing of it, hope he is on like

Just over a week til this and really looking forward to going to this. Hope Dolan can come out aggressive and force JLD to fight as if he doesn't it could be a comfortable nights work. How do people see this fight? JLD 117-111 I go for.

Cornish is on bill against the good old tba but hope its a genuine non Eastern European heavyweight for a change.

Peter cope is always in a good scrap looking forward to see how he develops as he has a good style just needs to sit down on his shots

If your on iceferg any word on travis? He mentioned on Facebook he is on bill but jaffas dad wasn't aware of this and he put the card together

i got my tickets off jon-lewis, saw that cornish down gym he's been sparring jld. looking forward to this expecting a real battle n agree FH about 117-111 after a real battle although the more i think i just don't know. dolan is a really good operater 3x aba champ, commonwealth gold medalist, and this is his last chance to prove his talent as a pro. he's not going to go quietly imo

How has sparring been going with JLD and Cornish? Don't rate Cornish yet tho when he steps up he may prove a lot of people wrong. Your right about Dolan it's probably his last chance so he will come in great shape and be up for this I think tactically be very interested to see how he fights esp the first few rounds.

Anyword on travis fighting?

Looking forward to this card. JLS is solid & well-organised, I think he'll be able to control the fight as Dolan fades & will win by late stoppage.

Undercard looks good as well with Gary Cornish & Danny Price, shame they're both fighting TBA

Good to see Boxing is coming back to teesside regularly, Hall is defending his commonwealth title in darlington next month.

think peter cope will be the fight of the night he has a good style and is an excellent combination puncher but lacks power so it always gives his opponent a chance and he looks like he struggles at the weight so be interesting fight

What were the prices for this? I see Steve Wraith is charging £39 quid for his latest card in May which is headlined by a 33 yr old who has only had 5 fights and hasn't fought since 2005

he'll be 33 in May anyway

Must be a fairly popular lad with a few mates that he can sell too, i dont know what the deal is with the 8 year absence but wouldn't have him down as headline material.

It's good that there is boxing back in the North East (and particularly Newcastle, for logistic reasons), but it does take the piss a bit when you can get to see Purdy, Barker and Camacho-Clark for as little as £20 and we have to pay double to see this bloke. i know all about the costs, small arena etc but still a bit shit for the paying punter who doesnt know any of the boxers.

The Sunderland card is pretty good - British title, relative big name up here in JLD, supported by people most have heard of like cornish and price.

[Smoggy7188]

The Hall bill looks good to with chubz and hepper on the undercard. Fox/Mcray on jld undercard looks a good little scrap. If its 39quid then kash will be on undercard again.

never heard of hepper, but thomas ward is on and is supposed to be good - to be fair he has been on the last 2 Wraith cards, and will prob be on this one as well. would have been more appealing if he (despite age, and lack of fights), ismay or even clauzel were the headliner.

re: kash i'm confused, are you taking the piss, or do you rate him?

[Smoggy7188]

Hepper likes a good war. I dont rate kash but he sells bucketload of tickets thats why he will be on undercard.
