As above its been announced that this fights been made an official eliminator for the wbc title, personally i think this is great news as hearn looks like hes skipping the british/european route with campbell and going for a good world ranking, it looks like he might be moved a bit more quickly after he beats coyle.
Doubtful he will, this is made an eliminator for Campbell not Tommy, Coyle is behind Mitchell, Crolla & Campbell in terms of Matchroom LW's , possibly even Cardle. But as for if he gets one ahead of Burns, tbh what has Burns done to warrant a world title? When was his last notable win? I'm not slating Burns, or saying Coyle beats him (coyle would lose on points IMO) but what I am saying is, this is boxing - performances get you places,and tommy is winning in entertaining fights- burns is not.
Not been announced as a PPV yet, anyone see it coming? Or does Hearn normally let people know from the off?
No I cant see this being PPV, the card looks reasonable but not PPV material even by Hearns standards.
No it wont be Hearn said the other month neither this the upcoming Liverpool or Manchester cards will be pay per view.
Would be fun if Coyle beats Campbell. We might get a simular situation as Wlad vs Leapai and Bowe vs Ferguson
People moan about boxers fighting bums and padded record good on these 2 I believe Campbell wins then let's move him on quick and see how good he really is.
After Campbell wins this i'd want to see him vs. Scott Cardle for the british title. Then fight someone like Zlaticanin or Marsili to get higher in the WBC rankings.
