    Just seen that W****n will be putting on a card in the Echo Arena on 7th December with the 3 Smith Brothers defending their British titles. Paul Butler will also feature defending his British & Commonwealth.

    What are everyones thoughs?

    Any other fighters/fights you would like to see on the card?

    Will anyone be going?

    I will definately be going if the card doesn't get pulled beforehand (and thats a big IF knowing W****n haha)

    are the smiths that big a draw to sell out the echo??

    price could do with getting out again quietly on an undercard

    Paul Smith Vs Luke Blackledge

    Stephen Smith Vs Sykes and Liam is TBA

    Not too bad if you look at the rankings in the Super Middleweight and Superfeatherweight divisions.

    4 British title fights on one night is never a bad thing. Something about the belt just makes most title fights absolute barnstormers!

    A few years back when Paul fought Dodson and Quigley I think both of them fights were pretty much sell outs. But if they are all just in pretty straight forward defences then I wouldnt be too sure.

    Thats not a bad shout if they could get Price a fight on the bill, with W****n signing the deal to show Maloneys fighters on Boxnation then it could be very possible, he needs a fight to get his confidence back again.

    Paul Butler brings plenty of fans from Ellesmere Port and if Price was on the card too then he would sell plenty of tickets.

    Paul wants to get blackledge out the way then he's aiming for a world title shot. So he just said on the radio

    The programme I bought at the Copper Box show on Saturday advertises another Copper Box show for the 30th of November.

    I might go to the show at the Echo but I'll wait until the running order is released the week of the fight to decide; if it's going to last until the wee hours like his shows recently I won't bother making the trip.

    What Liverpool lacks is a mid sized boxing venue I think. It usually goes from the Olympia which is about 1,000 seats to the Echo which is an 9 - 10,000 seat arena.

    Did anybody go to the Price vs ***ton/Skelton fights at the Aintree Equestion Centre? I think thay done about 4,000 in there, but I've never seen any boxing in there before or after those fights.

    I know when Bellew fough McIntosh at the Echo they only used the bottom tier seats. But suggesting by the multiple prices for this card I dont think this would happen here.
