    Planned date is April 29, but will move to April 15 if Fury Usyk takes place on that date.

    - Dalton Smith vs Sam Maxwell - British Super Lightweight Title
    - Terri Harper vs Cecilia Braekhus - WBA and IBO Super Welterweight World Title
    - Youssef Khoumari vs Reece Bellotti - British Suoer Featherweight Title eliminator

    Looks this will be on April 29, which will clash with Fury at Wembley whether he fights Usyk or not. Surely they should change the date to May / later on. They don’t need to risk it either with Smith 8 weeks after going 12 rounds and suffering a small cut against a quality operator in Sam Maxwell.

    There is zero chance that Eddie goes on that date if Fury gets confirmed this week. It’s not even that good of a fight anyway

    MTK were big on Maxwell in their heyday but I was never all that sure why, he's not a bad fighter but isn't ever going to set the world alight. Think this'll be a pretty easy win for Smith, lopsided decision.

    Jesus I presumed he was late 20s. Did he turn over late?

    He could probably fit loads of money in his holdall for the fights abroad!

    Same, I thought he was 28 but I think that's when he turned pro. Mad really, I seem to remember there being some hype around him but I think the KO defeat and his age means that he's probably seen as a stepping stone now, I expect Smith to deal with him, too easy to hit.

    Maxwell has been shot for a while now

    Solid enough name on the CV on the rise up i guess

    Dalton looked poor in his last fight. On that performance, Maxwell might have a chance

    I think this card isn't happening now and will be delayed.

    That's disappointing. Injury?
