    Davies/Leather is a really good fight

    Dubois/Little, not so much, considering he should've been fighting Webb for it

    Could be a fight or 2 too early for Leather perhaps?

    Expected worse, a lot worse to be honest. Davies - Leather is decent enough. Tom Little lost to Dorian Darch who Dubois starched so I’m not sure what he’s going to learn from this? Better than an Eastern European cabbie though.

    OD v Leather is a cracking little fight. Solid British fight, and josh does decent tickets which is needed for the 02.

    I know people knock the BJS/MM fight. But could be a good night, the Williams vs Lennox Clark fight should be good. Hamza vs Petit could be interesting as well.

    If he can give Yarde a decent opponent then it’s a very solid nights action.

    Frank did try to get Allen for Dubois instead which I think most of us agree would have been a good step up, so I think it might be fair to give them abit of leeway with Little on this occasion?

    Hopefully he gives Daniel some
    good rounds before going.

    I’ve said before about Dubois that he’s young and very inexperienced so I think the main thing for him is rounds. At this stage I don’t have many qualms with level of opponent I just think there should be slight progression. At the moment he’s beat Darch then faced Jones who drew with Darch and now facing Little who lost to Darch! I’m not saying put him in with a top 15 fighter just show a little bit of progression. What about the likes of Sean Turner who took Hrgovic the distance? He’s only a few places higher up in boxrec. Dubois should do him comfortable and he appears robust.
