    I don't care if he has the personality of Tyson Fury, Conor Mcgregor and Tony Bellew combined.. this guy should be nowhere near our TV screens, having him a PPV is ridiculous!

    He's a bum, he's area level. and He's boring to watch. I don't get it.. it's like the equivalent of someone like ****ing Adil Anwar being on PPV lol

    doesn't matter how big his personality is,you have to have the ability of a decent level first and foremost.

    This'll be another boring cringeworthy watch, I'll probably use this fight as a food break from the card.

    Don't mind this fight tbh.... But the PPV portion of the card should be more appetizing. This should be a free fight.

    Allen gets repeated shots due to personality alone. He seems to have cut weight and is taking it more seriously. However Hearn really needs to put on a serious undercard for this fight and needs a couple of big names to make the bill worth watching. This fight won't sell PPV with AJ vs Pulev as Pulev is dull, has limited English and was taken to pieces and knocked down multiple times by Wlad. This will struggle with the likes of Yafai, Allen, Benn, Katie Taylor etc. as ballast for a comparatively difficult to sell main event.

    The only reason Eddie keeps bigging up Allen and putting him on his shows is that he is gullible and cheap content

    On a serious note Martin Ilungawould beat Thomas & Allen inside the distance on the same night, he will need to work his nuts off to be given a major title shot and he will, when that time comes the heavyweights will be running

    Would Martin beat Gary Cornish on that night as well?

    Would your guy qualify to be able to box for the Commonwealth belt Billy? Has he got dual nationality?

    Dave Allen seems like a really nice bloke, but he's just not a very good boxer. There's no way he should be appearing on PPV cards.

    No not as yet, Martin is way above domestic level just ask anyone who's sparred him or seen him spar, it is a shame has there great learning fight however he will need to go down the international route but prepared to fight anyone in the UK, most have heard about him now and don't want to take a risk!
    Great news for Martin will be getting announced during the week.
