    Sam Eggington will now be boxing a 12 rounder for the Commonwealth title.

    Sam Eggington vs Bradley Skeete is a natural fight I'd think?

    Skeete - eggington would be a good match up, not sure how skeete would deal with Sam's come forward style, however, I do not see this happening at all..


    Skeete is with FW ain't he & Sam is being primed for headlining at brum before too long with MR

    Spot on mate also b4 sam signed with mr he was mandatory for skeetes english title which he decided to vacate. Having spoken to a common opponent of theirs he thinks sam walks thru skeete and stops him late.

    Yeh I'd say that is a fair shout., I know not many people did, but I rated Singleton (especially his chin - woodhouse made a mess of him & he never wobbled once)

    So I was particularly surprised with how Sam managed to put him on his back side the way he did, his shot selection was massively improved too, which is something that I'd questioned before.

    I wouldn't be surprised to see a Gavin - Eggington headline in the next 12 months at brum for Gavin's British title.

    he was due to fight an 8 rounder but that may have changed as well....very poor show imo,Hearn was dishing out tickets in latest ifl interviews im thinking this could be a major flop?
