    Really fancy Brahmer to do a number on nathan. If the odds look good its well worth a punt imo.

    Not sure DeGale-Groves will be that competitive but its a BIG fight, cant wait. The build-up will be entertaining & the atmosphere fight night will be electric, this will be a sell-out.

    does it sell to the masses though?? To sell the 02 Arena he needs more than these 2.

    None of the others will be in fights nearly as good as these two so if people are buying tickets/PPV it will be for the top two I reckon.

    Exactly this, it will sell easily to the hardcore fans but they need at least a couple of the other fighters to make it work.

    Not sure about Chisora-Fury, that might merit lead billing at another event. Is it due to go to pursebids soon? Wouldnt be surprised if they fought on premier instead of sky.

    Its a big night with the main 2. Gavin would make it better & if they get Brook as well I think I might wet my pants with excitement.

    If that card came off i would **** my pants. Awesome card but they could make more money by making some of these fights on seperate cards. Still though even if half comes of itll be worth £15

    already spoke to dan, defo up for a night on the tiles after this blockbuster of an event! really cant wait, just hope they get mitchell v murray on the card aswell or at least gavin vs daws/wright/cook/theothane.

    what tickets you gonna get? a £50 or £75? cant pay more than that being as i have a £250 budget on tickets/food/drink/hotel.

    Yep, I'm up for it. Think No Mas is too.

    I'd add Mitchell vs Murray and Gavin vs Brook to this card if I was Frank. Nice pair of even looking fights that end up with overrated hypejobs being beaten.

    Probably £75 tickets, will be worth seeing who's been to the o2 before to see if they are worth the extra £25.

    2 london boys fighting in london, personal history & emnity between the 2. They're markedly different from each other, both unbeaten if this fight gets good coverage then I think it might attract mass media attention. Plus all the Welsh coming down/tuning in for Nathan this could do well, tickets & PPV.

    I hope Rob's right and they stick them all on the card.

    But from a business point of view, would Gavin-Daws or Chisora-Mcdermott really prompt people to buy the card if they wouldn't buy it for the top two?

    They are both very good fights within their own right and I'd happily see them top a Saturday Fight Night, but will they be the clincher for anybody?

    I don't see it.
