    Appreciate they had to fit something in... But this is extremely poor...

    Especially being PPV

    I actually prefer this to the Brook fight. It's more competitive. Still very mediocre as a fight mind you

    It would be akin to Warren replacing BJS in an uncompetitive fight with Tommy Langford against that same opponent.

    Pathetic for PPV.

    Hahaha. You’ve got to laugh.

    Only thing I can say is well done for getting Cook a replacement with his friends and family all booked up to come over.

    Better fight than Brook Cook, but it's still a very poor card for a PPV.
    Brook has been out for a while so not sure why he couldn't get a better fight in place... He must be paying Parker and Whyte an absolute bomb!

    Oh well... Katie Taylor is on the undercard in a world title fight :69:

    By criticising them?

    Only thing positive was that it’s worked out for Cook in the end.

    Not surprised at all. Eggington wud never turn a fight down so probably always the back up plan for Hearn.

    i think cook is better than people think. I wont be surprised if Cook wins this. Eggington takes wayyy to much punches flush.
