    don't forget Kaizer Chiefs are on the undercard too!

    I'm going, but only because it's on my door step. I think there will be plenty of crowd trouble once Selby wins

    Clutching at straws there mate. Neither have even fought anyone with a positive record.

    The main events for the Manchester card Fury v TBA and O2 BJS v Murray aren’t exactly barnstormers either.

    The next 3 cards by Frank are mutton dressed as lamb. When you go in to them and dissect them they’re really poor - but will do decent numbers.

    Fair enough bro...ive got Selby winning by UD too. Thinking about it you right about Franks next 3 cards they are poor. Fury's opponent still hasnt been named and Saunders against Murray is pointless.

    Im a fan of both Saunders and Murray but was disappointed when this fight was announced.

    Frank needs to hurry the fxxk up and announce who the Gypsy King is fighting!!

    Can anybody actually say when the last time Warren put on a proper good card was? I was excited when he got the BT deal, thought he would put on some proper strong cards but it's not happened. He's fell even further behind Eddie and Matchroom IMO. He's far too happy to have his guys fighting can after can after can. I know Hearn does it too but he spins it well enough to disguise it a bit and i think he's better at hyping his fighters than Frank is.
    Now Hearn has this 1 billion dollar American deal Frank is all but finished IMO.

    Selby should deal with warrington easy. Josh W had a very tough fight with kiko where he was unconvincing and it was the same Kiko who two years before got bladdered by quigg in 2 and frampton twice also. Only thing that im worried about selby is the weight, hes massive for it and warrington work rate could be a factor! Leeds fans should be epic as always, shocking undercard tho.

    Warren's last best card IMO was the Fury-Chisora card with Saunders-Eubank as chief support. The main event turned out to be a one-sided battering but the build-up and press conferences were awesome for that and I'll concede that I thought the main event would have been a lot closer and fancied Chisora to really put it on Fury at times. I guess that was Fury's "coming out party" in a sense because he showed that when in shape he was totally levels above Chisora.

    Saunders-Eubank was a classic IMO.

    On paper at the time that was a fantastic card, no one can argue otherwise.

    Think slightly harsh on some of the other cards. Williams vs Clarke should be a good scrap, but Saturday is very poor

    I don’t think it is though. I’m an open person. I challenge you to convince me otherwise? I’m not one of these “Eddie is great, Frank is ****” people. I’d like to think I tell my opinion regardless of the promoters. Fury - TBA and Flanagan v Hooker (at least it’s a world title fight) hardly wet the appetite. Gorman Turner decent enough. I think I actually called for Dubois Turner on here not too long ago.

    Saunders - Murray is completely one sided. Davies v Leather - as said above he’s getting used for his “unbeaten” record. It’s going to be a one sided beat down. We were promised a big opponent for Yarde, a big step up. 5 weeks out and still no opponent.

    The 3 of these cards by Frank are poor cards featuring “big” stars. Take away the names Fury, Selby and Saunders and your left with nextgen level cards.

    Does anybody think Warrington can beat Selby?
    Everyone ive spoken to think Selbys got it so want to hear from from people that think Warrington wins.

    Buncey said last week that 30,000 will be there which would be a great turnout.
    However, I suspect there'll be at least 5-8,000 less than that which, though still a good turnout, will disappoint a few people involved with the promotion.

    I was tempted to go but the promotional campaign was so geared up around Warrington's support of Leeds United that I had visions of the crowd replicating the Upton Park one for Mitchell vs Katsidis and thought I'd rather watch at home!

    I think he can win but that's not saying that I think he will.

    He will give the best performance of his life I suspect and will cause Selby a lot of problems - more than most anticipate - but the latter will use his brain and box through any difficulties.

    Do you think its worth putting a few quid on Warrington? The odds on him winning are massive...if he does win how do you see hin doing it?

    A classic? Saunders v cej was a dreadful scuffle. Most overhyped rubbish for a long time. What a let down. Terrible mix of styles...didn't work at all.

    With Selbys lack of pop all his fights are going long. So there is always a chance of something going wrong in s long fight I suppose. If josh uses relentless pressure he might get lucky you never know. But he has no power either....looks like ud selby....

    Selby hasn’t looked great recently, of course skill wise he’s levels above Warrington but if Warrington has had the best camp ever, has put the hours in and another bad night at the office for Selby plus the crowd and Leeds fans behind josh it’s possible he could pull this off
