    I think many viewers watching two hours of garbage won't bother again.

    Cheap, low standard fights and the two main event participants could not do 2 minutes with Katie Price.

    A horrific night for British Boxing.

    Tbf Simpson vs williamson should be a good fight. Not sure they have a chief support yet which is disappointing but apparently ti ket sales are good too at Leeds arena.

    That was the sort of fight casuals like. Not much finesse but a fair bit of drama at the end.

    Simpson fight should be better action and they’ve done over 5000 tickets already. Barnsley lot will create a good atmosphere.

    How? Williamson has lost four of his last six and is old and shopworn. He's going to look tiny in there against Simpson.

    Just because he's lost 4 out of his last 6 doesn't mean to say it won't be a good fight ye know. Not sure Troy will look tiny, think that's a bit of an overstatement. Both lads love a scrap and that's why I think it'll be a good fight.

    It's a foregone conclusion and Simpson absolutely dwarfed him ringside being interviewed during Tshikeva vs Clarke.

    There's 4 inch between them mate. Hardly dwarfed him. Simpson had timberland boots on when they met last week which would of gone towards hos overall appearance. 4 inch at the higher weights is not dwarfing someone or making them look tiny. Adames vs sheeraz was exactly the same size In height.

    Yes, and he dwarfed him. Since when is 4 inches - that's 10cm - not dwarfing someone? He looked absolutely tiny next to him and he doesn't have a chance to beat Simpson. He's been past it for years. I want to see 50/50 matches, not "Williamson gave a good account of himself, giving it his all".

    If Ben had got a few more people around him maybe he wouldn't have taken the biggest boxing platform in the UK to virtually out of the sport in one contract.

    That’s a good addition. Cobbs is a decent fighter. Last fight a win against Broner.

    True. It reminded me of the Danny Williams-Audley Harrison era of British heavyweight boxing, which was on BBC.
