    Adam Catterall tweeting a big announcement is due at 5pm.

    Lots of Sam Jones tweets around it.

    well the money they wanted to have a fight was too rich for Frank’s blood, so he’s come up with a grudge snooker match for the fans

    Well done to both for taking the fight - I may even go soft and buy this fight as they deserve the loot for having the balls to face each other without a crowd.

    Glad that common sense has prevailed and the fight will happen behind closed doors as realistically it's the only way it could happen. Who knows at what point in 2021 fans will be allowed back in any decent numbers so the fight was effectively dead unless some compromise was reached.

    I read somewhere that Joe Joyce's original purse for this was touching a million pounds! Incredible and quite bizarre PPV or not for a domestic level British/commonwealth title fight with one boxer still being classed a 'prospect (Dubois) and the other being totally unknown to the general public (Joyce).

    Still, a great fight, and one I'm really looking forward to.
