    Sickened. Harsh on the Irish lads heading over but it'll still be a great nights boxing. What a horrible year it has been for Macklin.

    If I am honest, I did think this fight would happen because it would have propelled Barker into the big time if he won. I think he may be legitimately injured. Will he have to give up the belt now?

    Feel your pain, mate. Was out in Vegas when Mosley-Berto was supposed to be happening. On the upside I still had a great time, as I'm sure you will.:good

    This is ****,that was the fight i was looking forward to most.They will probably upgrade Gavins fight to the Sky ppv coverage now,if we lose another fight then we will get Broadhursts fight as well.I will still buy this as long as the Brook-Jennings and Cleverly-Murat fights go ahead.

    The money goes on the favourite if there is a replacement if not you just get the six.

    Birmingham vrs Vegas.........

    It's the downside of boxing and its terrible when it happens, it's still a great card though, well that's if it still holds together.

    :lol:When you put it like that. I meant more the boxing - if the other fights go ahead you should still have a cracking night. Plus I hear there's a bit of nightlife to be had.:good

    Nope, whats with this infamous Block 9?
    Believe it or not i'm heading over with the missus, i managed to convince her watching Macklin would be brilliant live. None of my mates are into boxing.

    Haha that's better mate.

    Someone like Brian Vera would be a good fight- someone who is tough and ready to fight?
