    Stacked undercard he says with Yarde on it, could he be fighting someone with a pulse?

    Depending on the other fights, I might end up going to this, fairly local.

    Glad this Bowen/Clarke fight has been rearranged.

    Good fight this .highly doubt yarde will be in with someone good as if he fights a decent opponent you would think he be topping a card

    They’ve gave him 3 months notice. So they’ve got ample time to get him a half decent opponent, even with “pull outs”.

    Frank has said stacked undercard so let’s hope he delivers.

    No chance on that bill or it would headline. Be good main event but no disrespect to either fighter Yarde has a bigger profile so if he were fighting someone good he would no doubt headline instead.

    But it’s in Bowen’s hometown.

    I’ll be disappointed if Yarde isn’t fighting a top 25 fighter.

    I know but if Yarde was fighting someone good Frank wouldn't have put it on in Leicester imo. I'm sure he will fight someone in the top 25 of the WBO rankings but be surprised if their any good.

    I like Yarde, but you can't defend these constant TBC. Not good enough Frank. Just fight Burton, it's an easy enough win imo.

    Good to see Woodstock back out after that cracking fight with Archie Sharp. Nice gatekeeper fight for Bowen although I expect him to rise to the challenge. Tommy Fury also back out so be interesting to see what adjustments Ricky has made. All in all a nice little 'trade card' from Frank for the start of the year. Shame it clashes with Eubank v Degale I like these cards as fillers for quiet weekends.

    I mean its a rubbish card, but at least no one will be watching. Just because there are "names" on it, there's only one competitive (on paper) fight.

    I like the main event. Bowen is exciting and he could quite easily get to Euro level with his ability. Clark will come to fight as always and it will be exciting. I'd hope to see Yarde in with someone semi interesting but I won't hold my breath.
