    Hearn's already pretty much said who's going to be on there. Charlie Edwards mandatory, Buatsi, Liam Smith (wanted Sergio Garcia but doesn't look like that's happening), Cordina vs Gwynne, maybe Povetkin vs Allen depending on tonight.

    There's not many, if any, more worthy challengers than Campbell out there for Lomachenko, the only potential problem with the match up is that because Lomachenko is that damn good, it could be dismissed as just another mismatch. I do expect Lomachenko to win, but I think Campbell will at least make it competitive. He's a tall and rangy southpaw who is very skilful in his own right and will have the size advantage. If Pedraza and Linares were able to have moments of success against Lomachenko, then I don't doubt that Campbell can too. I think it might go the distance.

    Well have to see if Taylor comes through programs first, hopefully he does. I'm not quite as sold on inoue but his resume speaks for itself and he does do some real subtle moves which is high quality stuff.

    Just heard on Sky that Campbell’s switched to Shane McGuigan.

    I think that's a good move for him but Loma is too good.

    Seen him live loads of times, Linares match was epic he glides around the ring. Def do it mate, he is miles ahead of everyone else even with the shoulder.

    Hearn deserves no props for this fight being over here. Loma has wanted to box in London again ever since he won his 2nd gold in 2012.

    Come on Campbell. Big ask but I think he can give it a good go. If he had a bit more power I’d give him a much better chance.

    I'm definitley getting a ticket for this. I haven't been to a boxing event in ages and promised myself I would get to one this year.

    Hopefully a stacked undercard too. Is it worth paying a bit more for a good seat in the o2 or is it not really worth it and just stick to the £40 seat? Reckon the arena will be sold out come the night?

    Hearn seems to think it'll sell out judged on o2 pre sale numbers.

    I get paid 31st so hopefully there are reasonable prices tickets left then. The rumoured undercard looks good to be fair. I wonder who the big heavyweight fight will be now. Price v povetkin? Chisora v Parker? Probably too soon for chisora to fight again like
