    Beterbiev is 'injured' again. Let's hope it gets rescheduled soon

    I’m not surprised, Beterbiev probably wants more time to get a few cycles in.

    So I wonder who Turki will look to draft in…surely Buatsi will jump at the opportunity if he gets the call..

    Absolutely devastated by this. This is the best fight in boxing for me and the one I'm looking forward to more than any other.

    Gutted. Surely this card isn't ppv now.

    But but but… Frank vs Eddie!

    The way this show has been promoted it felt like the undisputed was a prelim fight so I’ve no doubt it’ll go ahead as a PPV.

    Buatsi already turned down the chance to fight Bivol, even joined Boxer after he was made mandatory just to avoid Bivol.

    Wishful thinking, but sadly as this is on the 'home of PPV', its almost certain that the PPV specialists will keep it PPV.

    Begs the question what do you actually got for your £25 (yes, Twenty Five pounds, that's not a typo) a month subscription

    You get the worst value subscription ever seen anywhere in the world.

    Right up there with Aussie Box Office Cards.

    So I’d forgotten this was the ‘main event’ of Frank v Eddie and thought it was a separate show, which tells you where the main selling point of this card was sadly.

    Wonder if Al Turkey will alllow Hearn and Warren to get a female World Title Fight to save the show.

    Beterbiev smashed his own knee up so he could pull out as hes scared of Bivol

    That's a good shout and might repair the Yarde-Queensberry rift... just depends how long Beterbiev will be out I guess?

    I've got a feeling it might not happen now. That's a bad injury to get at that age.

    Does anyone know much about this Zinad who's been picked to fight Bivol?
