    My guess is that it will have delayed coverage in the US. Looks like a decent show to be fair. O'Donnell taking on his toughest opponent to date and it will be interesting to see what weight the fight is made at, especially as Cauthen was down to take on Kaddour at 154 before that fell through. And it's always interesting to see how Tyson Fury looks.

    Dont rate him - Watson beat him, regardless of what the judges said.

    Think thats what Warren use to do for his Shobox cards.

    No idea why Shobox are broadcasting this tbh, I do think they are still keen to show Fury. I think he was meant to be appear on the Froch-Taylor undercard. I imagine Showtime will be mightily disappointed if they are expecting some kind of HW 'sensation'!

    Very interesting to see if O'Donnell can look impressive against this guy. Former quality amateur whos taking the likes of Paul Williams the full 10. We always here how much better US journeyman are better than top domestic fighters so that one should be good!

    It's part of the deal that the promoters got for entering the Super Six they where guaranteed at least one ShoBox show (not really needed in the case of Goosen, GSP and DBE).

    I personally feel like this is a decent show for ShoBox they have shown far worse. It will be interesting to see how O'Donnell will do, also interesting to see what weight this is at. And Fury is always an interesting watch, he may be over hyped but he is still better then pretty much every Heavyweight Prospect from the US.

    Cheers :good Didn't know that was part of the Super Six deal, I wonder if Sauerland have anything lined up?

    I'm not to keen on O'Donnell to be honest, I thought Craig Watson was very unlucky to lose the decision to him and to be honest Watson should be up there with M. Hatton/Brook/Jennings vying for UK Welterweight supremacy.

    O'Donnell v Watson I was a decent fight, if he stays at WW after this one theres no reason why those 2 shouldn't fight again.
