    If you going to stiff the B side on a decision then making it a 10 rounder makes perfect sense.

    Cameron should insist on a 12 rounder.

    So has it been confirmed as 10 or 12 yet?!

    Just checked Boxrec, shows a 10 rounder.

    I'd say Cameron's chances have diminished somewhat

    Really looking forward to this this coming Sunday.

    Personally, I don't think that BW carries any serious pop and once LC starts to tickle his ribs again...

    Potentially a FoTY candidate.

    It's been crossing my mind whether will get a similar scenario to Benn vs the random Belgium kickboxing?

    BW suddenly getting outrageous power

    Looking forward to this.

    any idea on ring walk times for the main event? I thought I had read a few weeks ago that main event would be at 9, but i don’t know if i did now.

    Looking forward to a bit of Bank Holiday Sunday boxing.

    Rounds dispute still not sorted apparently.

    The thing that stands out in this dispute.

    BW has never boxed 12 rounds as a pro, Cameron has.

    One question mark has been Whittakers gas tank, looks like he doesn't feel confident of being able to stop Cameron and certainly doesn't fancy doing a potential 12 rounds.

    He's an odd one is Whittaker. Regardless of what he says, he definitely didn't want to take the rematch, but he's had to. Ability wise, he should be beating Liam Cameron, but he looks completely shell shocked in all the media for the rematch. This rounds dispute is a joke. It would've been totally acceptable as a ten rounder, it's not a title fight, but if the contract says 12..... It's one of those where if the fight fell through in next few days I wouldn't be at all surprised.

    I don’t want to create a new thread and it’s connected to this fight.

    But does anyone know why Lee Eaton hates Ben Shalom so much?

    Every tweet/post/interview seems to be having a pop at Ben.

    It’s not just connected to this fight. Maybe to do with SKY going with Boxxer/Ben a few years back and not choosing the many dubious entity’s Eaton’s been involved with?

    Did you see Callum Simpson even having a pop at Ben? Wonder if he really is just terrible.

    To be fair to Ben he's actually done a really good job with Callum so was surprised
