    4th April , card looks like it will be average at best going off the pictures of the fighters involved on the poster ! This card would of been a lot better if you had the Josh Kelly fight as the joint headliner!

    I suppose it is the way things are now with all Eddies top Uk fighters either on PPV or going to America on DAZN.

    It's quite underwhelming

    it doesn’t exactly get the juices flowing well with me anyway! Shame really there was always one or two crackers to look forward to on a normal Saturday fight night on Sky , they seem to be becoming few and far between now.

    Love how the Sky article avoids reminding everyone that Ohara Davies as already dealt with this version of Vazquez.

    Vasquez beat Ohara Davies. It was a blatant robbery and IJL should be ashamed of himself.

    Why haven’t they gone for the patera rematch?

    or gone down the domestic route and fought Davies or catterall?

    again these british cards are not that good. This is not far off an mtk show. i remember ritson opponent was fighting o hara davis as a co main event on an mtk card. its not an easy fight for ritson thou. another female world championship fight where there are only about 27 women at that weight; the fabion wardley fight could be good and the rest are names again against tba

    I’m gonna watch it, I only caught bits of it. If I remember right, Ohara got injured and even he thought he was undeserving in victory. My point was that this is the shadow of Vasquez’s former fighting self. This is like Malignaggi when he fought Eggington, he’s done.

    Vazquez won't even try to win this..he must be coming cheap or he's desperate for cash..sad tbh because in his prime he would embarrass ritson.

    O'Hara allegedly damaged a rib but he was well beaten and outboxed. 94-97 is just not a feasible scoreline.

    We had the Saudi Stinker, then the Sheffield Skull-Duggery now the Toon Trash - back on the phone to Sky Boxthing tomorrow to complain about the lack of interesting fights for Sly Sports Subscribers
