    Eggscellent news!

    Should be a good decent scrap. Cheese is the better boxer but Eggington can bang when he lets his hands go. Just a shame about his defensive skills.

    I'll lean towards Cheeseman, maybe on Points.

    Could be a very entertaining one or could be a brutal one sided beat down. I hope it’s the former. Cheeseman doesn’t look like he warranted all that hype at all although I was impressed with him mixing it up against Fitz. Eggington for all his faults is game as **** and will come to fight. He’s a fighter who deserves a lot more respect for his accomplishments, lacks talent but clearly works hard. I like him.

    Egg was wobbled by a shot Paulie and KO'd by fighter no one had ever heard off.
    Cheeseman can do a bit - if he's focused he wins fairly straight forwardly

    Cheeseman by KO. He cracks the egg, and turns the yoke off-before he hits the canvas.

    Yep. The Egg is just a punchbag. Actually a punchbag is harder to find than the Egg's face.

    So long as this fight doesn't have posters with these lads H2H I'll be happy. Both look like mutants.

    I'm taking the cheese to put in a mature performance.

    Good contest this. Will be a barnburner if Ted tries to scrap him or he could win easily by boxing and moving. Either way a Cheeseman win.

    Nice fight. Should be a war. Cheeseman late stoppage -- will try to box him and then pile on pressure late IMO

    Again, I’d like to echo that he deserves a lot more credit and respect. A fighter who subscribes to the warrior code

    More or less as the fight panned out.

    Those 1st five rounds cost Eggington imo where his lack of defense let him down.

    Would most certainly like to see a re-match at some stage though. Very good entertaining fight.

    In fact, a decent night truth be told. Enjoyed all 5 fights. Well done Hearn.

    The set up is so much better than the BT studio set up. With the sun setting it makes the later fights feel more important if that makes sense.

    Good scrap. Don't need to see great fighters but we'll matched fighters to make a good fight sometimes

    All about levels and this was levels above what we’ve seen on BT in every aspect. Get out what you put in I suppose.
