    This is the most bizarre promotional video I think I've ever seen in my life. Still pretty funny though. I'll give Matchroom some credit here, very original. They are acknowledging the fact this fight is a bit pointless and they are past it now.

    Haha, I slated the Whittaker signing one but this is actually funny. Fair play.

    Warrington is punchy as hell and absolutely shot to bits.

    I reckon this will be an entertaining scrap regardless of where both guys are in their careers
    Infact that actually might make it more entertaining

    I've got to say, I don't actually mind this. It's quite refreshing that they aren't trying to sell this as another rebuild to a world championship or pull the wool over our eyes with fake drama and try and make it PPV. They've taken the mick out of themselves being old in the promo. I'd rather have this on on a Saturday night then no boxing at all. It is what it is, Might be a bit of fun.

    Wood in a similar fashion to the first fight

    Though Leigh always makes every fight difficult so wouldn't be totally shocked if Warrington wins

    Ball should win on points

    The only thing is Ball doesn't seem to be getting better
    I do wonder if he has peaked skill wise

    I think its 50 50 with a lean toward ball on the cards if close.
    -400 to me is wild. We will see what happens. Style match should be good.
