    I have heard from a couple of sources that Eloy Perez could be the opponent for Burns.

    I'd be happy with that one, he certainly doesn't have a world class resume but let's be honest, this isn't really a world title fight. He is unbeaten and on paper looks like he could give Burns a good scrap.

    Well there almost certainly will be a few coaches leaving from Coatbridge that probably any Glasgow/edinburgh fans could get a ticket for if they tried. If it turns out that they put another scottish lad on the undercard, e.g john thain (who made is debut at the echo arena last year and took a bus down) then there's another one.

    This is all true Derry has packed out the Olympia which is very good considering the level he has/is operating at. Rocky's fans were everywhere at the prizefighter and at Degale Smith i swear the whole top tier was on one side was full of Butler fans....not bad for a debutant.

    Disappointed in this, can't see Burns getting too much travelling support considering how badly tickets sold for the Braehead shows.

    Seems stupid Scotlands only world champion not fighting in Scotland. Could have tried a show in Edinburgh, would have been zero travelling for me anyway!
