    Rogan tweeted tonight thanking Eddie. I suspect he will get a soft opponent and will get an eliminator if he look OK and he will be ready for when Price vacates

    Harrison II
    Skelton II
    Sexton III
    Sprott

    Seniors tour

    Odd one- he's got good banter but has virtually nothing left in the tank at this point.

    Eddie knows the Belfast scene is buzzing, Get Rogan into a British title fight on a Frampton undercard and place would be rocking with Lindsay as well if he can defeat the G Selby.

    Weird signing but as mentioned above its probably to build his popularity in Belfast. Rogan is awful now though, he'll probably lose to a journeyman.

    has he actually been signed to matchroom though? or has he just been added to this card as a one-off?

    ****ing hell, didn't see this coming at all. Rogan was never anything more really than a glorified Belfast hard man. Picked up a couple a good wins and made himself some decent money being Commonwealth champ and fighting Fury for a decent paycheque but what else does he possibly have left to give at this stage? He's 41 FFS!

    I reckon this really just something tobeef up the card so I doubt it'll be anything more than a 1-fight deal. Rogan's still a big draw in Belfast and adding him to the Frampton-Kiko card will help boost ticket sales.

    Strange though, you'd think Frampton fighting Martinez for the European belt would be able to sell out on the on it's own.

    Signed only to add depth to cards. Rogan as second or third billing in the right match ups is easy. Expect him to be on Irish bills.

    What's the point ? Rogan was finished over 3 years ago.
