The Kieran Smith vs Troy Williamson one is odd, as Frank has confirmed a few times the Sheeraz fight is next.
I heard Warren say in an interview they were having warm up fights first. It's mentioned in the last few posts in this thread: https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/frank-warren-cards-scheduled-in-march.662293/
https://boxrec.com/en/event/830079 Have given up with Boris' grand plan, is there a chance this card has fans?
So Felix Cash vs David Bentley is 100% going ahead on April 24th? I know Felix confirmed this in an interview but I'm assuming it's official now...
You'd think Danny Dignum had already done enough to become mandatory for the British title without having to have an eliminator. He has two good knockout wins over Conrad Cummings and Alfredo Meli. Whereas Willy Hutchinson at super middle hasn't beaten no one and is just handed his shot on a plate.
Still nobody putting there name forward to fight Sunny Edwards at Super Fly.... Getting pretty embarrassing now
Years 2030, Sunny Edwards is an undisputed world champion, and no **** has still put their name forward to the BBBOC
Some good fights on there and lots appear to have been made and signed. It's a real shame that Gamal Yafai has pulled out of fighting Brad Foster. That would be a terrific fight for a Birmingham venue or Walsall Town Hall. If the work on Wolves Civic is ever done, it would be a dream opening top of the bill. Also from a Midlands point of view, nice to see Ricky Summers still in the picture.
Good post. Wolvo was my favourite local venue. And Foster yafia would have been a great fight. Hopefully summers can pick up the English title and push on his training hard and is sound lad. Also got len Clarke fighting for british title tough ask but got a chance.
Gamal Yafai was never going to fight Foster since he won the European Title. He's looking for World Titles mate. Some good amateurs coming through from Birmingham / the Midlands mate. Hopefully we can get some fights back at the Birmingham Arena.
A good mix there, definitely. I’d love Liam Davies vs McCann to happen - Davies was a very good amateur and McCann is being heavily hyped in the pros - Davies had a solid win on a Matchroom card recently too. Not sure if McCann will take the risk though. I don’t know much about Udofia or Dignum to comment on that one, but Hughes / Hyland and AEB / Maxwell should be decent watches.
