    Anyone watching? Outside of Ball-Shinkwin and possibly Ward-Giner it's a bit urgh.

    Benn, Cordina, Okolie and Yafai all still fighting TBA with two days to go.

    Ted Cheeseman faces Tony Dixon though I must admit I don't know much of Dixon at all, does anyone else?. Kelly is against the current IBF Mediterranean champion Jean Michel Hamilcaro. It'll be a blast out but that's a gradual progression at least.

    Obviously Taylor is headlining but against someone who is 5-1 in her almost 3 year career.

    How can anyone be looking forward to it?

    It’s just a few young fighters is going through the motions fights.

    This is the type of show that should be happening but shouldn’t be getting any publicity. Don’t build these kids up to be stars when they’re not or you end up with a problem.

    I was tempted to go but I cant do midweek hangovers anymore

    plus agreed its a bit of a rubbish card, hearn talked it up after the haye/bellew cancellation but there isn't much to get excited about, a lot of stay busy fights for prospects

    I thought we were getting cheeseman in with Metcalf? and what ever happened to the bloke who stopped ball? jj mcdonagh? done nothing since?

    Thanks for the heads-up. Looking forward to the fearsome TBA ... I think a few of them are ready to move up to TBC as well..

    It's boxing so I'll watch.

    That said the card screams "quota filler for the 20 Sky dates" to me.

    To be fair, the Horn-Corcoran card is no better

    I had a quick look at this girl taylor is fighting and she's pretty good!

    think taylor will have her hands full tonight

    ball vs shinkwin should be fairly entertaining

    all assumption, but I would've thought it was planned for this, but Williams finally relinquished the title, so maybe they're rearranging it for the title on Feb 3rd
