    Its a pity all the New Age Promoters bullshitters have moved.This is worse than any the man they loved to hate ever put together,and theres STILL the chance of last minute replacements.Might go on the other forum to see what they say.

    It does have a world champion on the undercard (no, not Scott Quigg, I'm talking about Jamie McDonnell who won a world title in his last fight and is now fighting an 8 rounder :huh)

    It's a poor undercard. It's a pity Joshua isn't on it. They could have tried to get a good competitive MW fight such as Murray - Lee. If it had a good mw fight such as that, Quigg vs whathisface, McDonnell in a 12 rounder against a higher ranked guy and Joshua on the card, it wouldn't have been too bad.

    Is Pacquiao-Rios on Boxnation now? and Murray vs. Andy Lee would be a good undercard bout.

    Ive bought it,and will enjoy it.But look at the original bill and watch each pair of boxers as they get in the ring,and compare.Shouldnt complain really,its not unique.

    If the schedule is to be believed and all the fights go the full distance, then theres absolutely no possibility of the main event starting at 11pm.
    I've got a very early start tomorrow, and don't fancy watching the whole card.

    The card isn't as good as first advertised/planned but alot of guys pulled out as we know. I'm still happy with the card, there's a lot of star power and a few interesting/competitive fights including a world title, cw title and a couple lesser world belts on the line. This card offers much much more than your average ppv card from elsewhere in the world imo.

    Radio Five Live start at 2145hrs so I suspect that they will cover the Quigg fights as well.

    Fielding won within a round, battered Luke Blackridge. Shame, he was just too open and rushed in like a maniac.
