    Hughie Fury vs Mariusz Wach
    Erislandy Lara vs Devon Alexander
    Guillermo Rigondeaux vs TBA
    Demetrius Andrade vs Cornelius Bundrage
    Dillian Whyte vs Robert Helenius 2
    Viktor Postol vs Miguel Vasquez


    No matter how big a boxing fan I am or how close it was, I still wouldn't go to that :qmeparto:

    i would jump at it

    i used to go with about 10 mates every fortnight in the 80`s to the york hall /70% of the time we only found out who was boxing when we got there / sometimes it was good / sometimes **** /.

    that bill would be more top boxers than we got there albeit once we went and watched frankie randall v edwin rosario / now that was a bill and what a fight.

    If it's free? Of course, go just to drink beer and look at celebrities, if you hate boxing.

    But I bet that would kick up one or two good fights.

    TBA was a nice touch...though may be a little hard on him given the hiding he's about to ship in the name of ambition.

    What if it was in your living room ?

    Would you head out to the pub that evening till they'd all cleared off ?

    Watching Big Cat Fury play hide & seek was one of the highlights of the year.

    Who wouldn't want to see that again?

    Big Cat Fury is the undisputed hide & seek champion of the world.

    Seeing him enter a boxing ring and not depart before the final instructions are issued is a big deal.

    Okay.

    More likely.

    Just the phrasing "...the hiding he's about to ship..." threw me off.

    Still, it has the makings of a great bout.
