    tonight on sky

    how do we see this one going?

    should be usual stuff from bellotti, pressure, body shots

    not seen much of cunningham, looks tall and rangey i think bellotti will stop him with a body shot around 5-6 rounds

    will be interesting to see him matched against the lowe/walsh winner

    Probably lean toward Bellotti for this, Cunningham has never really looked overly impressive to me.

    The rest of the card is absolutely dire.

    Every NXTGen card so far has been terrible. They need to make the headliner a genuine 50-50 for people to care. I'm only interested in seeing Isaac Chamberlain perform as the build up to the Okolie public execution intensifies.

    I probably won't watch though and will YouTube the fights after because of the football on tonight.

    Harlem Eubank is on the card too. Jr's cousin, Jr said he will try and be there tonight so that should be entertaining.

    As for the main event, I think Bellotti will win comfortably, I don't see much chance of an upset.


    I get a little irritated by these sorts of cards, there isn't a remotely competitive fight on there, I do understand the concept, young fighters getting some airtime in learning fights and a chance to showcase but they need to bang on a couple of 50/50's, even if they were really low level, I don't care, just competitive.

    Tonight's Odds

    Eubank 1/100
    Cheeseman 1/100
    Edwards 1/100
    Chamberlain 1/100
    Bellotti 1/20

    That's a little off in my opinion for a TV card.

    100% agree, competitive fights even at a very low level are a better watch than one sided blowouts.

    I've seen some really good, extremely entertaining really low level fights, some real knockdown drag out type fights.

    Didn't know about Eubank, will defo look out for his fight. Just looked him up on boxrec, how the hell is he 23 looks nearer 40 in the face.

    Eubank isn't great, saw him at Haringey a couple of times, did nothing open class as an amateur

    These NextCan events are awful - pudding after pudding served up with records worse than Norman Stanley Fletcher

    Apparently Isaac is going to be first up now on the Facebook stream. Eddie and Adam Smith are idiots, Chambo should be on live tv to build up the Okolie fight.

    Hahaha I thought exactly the same, yeah he looks in his late 30's and that's being kind.
