    Looked a decent card until they snuck Fisher v Dave Allen on there. Who wants to watch that crap ffs.

    Don’t think the undercard is at the same standard as past events. Could easily pass for a Matchroom undercard circa 2018.

    Not great. How is Allen still fighting? It is years ago that he left the ring on a stretcher after Price beat him up.

    The usual spastics (Parsons, Sam Jones, EverythingBoxing etc) are lapping it up but it’s a joke.

    McCann v McGrail is a good fight and it’s a decent step up for Itauma.

    Co main is very good

    McCann vs McGrail is a brilliant fight, sort of a shame it's not in the UK, but I guess they are getting a wedge.

    Moses Itauma vs McKean is mildly interesting but barring Eddie signing McKean and telling everyone he was great. He's just an Aussie pudding

    Isaac Lowe vs Lee McGregor is sort of interesting

    Dave Allen vs Johnny Fisher could be in an Essex Lesiure centre, the Copperbox, Saudi, or back garden. Which ever one, i've no interest.

    Good fights. I can just see the predictable IFL videos of Dave Allen and Big John Fisher having bants then the bleeding Chinese after the fight now

    Outwith McCann v McGrail

    am I the only one who thinks the undercard is stinking?

    Turkey's card this Saturday is showing serious decline with a female fight and Charlatan Eubank Jnr in a mismatch.

    The above now confirms standards are falling again.

    Hearn must have had a word with Turkey that any old shyte sells hence Fisher v Allen.

    The odds are shortening on Terence Harper appearing on a Riyadh card next year.

    With a bit of luck Big John will be getting flogged on a Saudi market Sunday morning.

    That’s a poor card by Turki’s standards. He’s slipping.

    Probably thinks he's spent enough on advertising and getting his name out there along with Riyadh season and its now time to reel it in a bit and start balancing the books.

    I do think proper domestic fights like McCann vs McGrail should be in the UK.

    The atmosphere will be a completely dead, the fight will be on at like 6.30pm whilst I'm trying to make dinner. And it'll get totally lost.

    In the UK it could be the top of a "Magnificent 7" type card, or it'd be the perfect fight for QP to have another show on Liverpool with

    Not the best undercard, but TBH I'm not too bothered; the past Saudi cards have dragged on far too long, especially with the obligatory fellating of his excellency between fights. At least this way I can tune in for only Bohachuk-Madrimov and the main event.

    I'm alone here in thinking thats a decent undercard.

    Chief support is a world level fight between 2 real warriors looking to bounce back from very close defeats to top tier opponents. McGrail v McCann is a cracking fight. Itauma is a real big move and will show us a lot about potentially our flag bearer at heavy for the next 10 years. The other 2 don't massively float my boat but your getting 2 elite fights, a very very good currently domestic fight between 2 of the UK's better prospect s which again is matchroom v Queensberry, and a meaningful step up for another one of our big propsects.
