    Looks as though this will be Yarde's Headline Card. Have seen Frank Warren say the opponent they had got rolled a few weeks back, I assume the South African fella.

    Currently the card has;
    Bradley Skeete vs Cocorron
    Umar Sadiq vs Zak Chelli

    Who else are we expecting to feature?

    Could be a nice little card that.

    Zak Chelli is one of the young guns I look forward to seeing the most, while I really dislike Sadiq.

    Actually a little scared for Zak, such a big and unnecessary jump up in class.

    Kid should have been more active and gradually upped his levels.

    Look at how Frank is managing Lerrone Richards, why couldn't Zak take a path like that.

    Agreed with Chelli vs Sadiq seems like a big step up for not that much reward.

    Guessing Lerrone Richards could be on the bill as well.

    Zac Chelli the p4p number one sparring partner champion of the world!!

    He loves a good old sparring story wonder when him and Eubank Jnr are going to fight to unify and once and for all find out who the number one world sparring champion is!

    That was the one that got beat I think.

    He also said everyone is wanting well over 6 figures to fight Yarde

    No that was the week before.

    That’s the problem when you build someone up to be a superstar, people are going to want superstar money to face him.

    The fact he’s headlining at the Brentwood centre says a lot about his drawing power and opposition should realise they aren’t getting that much.

    At the same time if Yarde is as good as you make out then you invest the money in him as he’s going to make it back for you 10 fold.

    Agreed, is strange for someone with such a social media following to be such a small draw really.

    i like the Sadiq/Chelli fight, but it's a bit of an odd one doing it THIS early

    You didn’t expect them too give him a full camp did you?

    10 days / 2 weeks is usually standard isn’t it.
