    I like Coyle, but he was badly exposed by Brizuela.

    Not sure where he is going right now.

    I agree with the lack of direction at the moment, I would like to see him have a crack at Flannigan for the British with them both being with Steve Woods it should be a fight easy to be made. The problem I see is the carrot of fighting Campbell with a big payday. Flannigan for me is winnable but very very risky and could jeopardise a payday.

    I know for a fact Tommy wants Buckland and has asked for it to be made.

    These guys haven't proved themselves to best the best in UK
    Be honest 30,000 come on, not many from out with Hull would go to it, good fight with two good fighters,however the loser will find it very hard to come back

    I arnt saying it deserves it billy but in hull it would easy do 30,000. I think Luke beats him in every department stronger faster smarter better footwork better allround. Tommy has struggled with body shots didnt burns drop him in sparring to the body the argie droped him a couple of times to the body and Luke throws a nice shot to the body and I see tko rnd 6 campbell

    The best scenario Billy would be If Tommy can beat Flannigan for the British then defends it against Luke next Summer with a decent undercard. That will sell at least 20,000 in Hull alone. Add Joshua in a British or European fight and then 30,000 is a given.

    Nothing is a given, this fight won't happen unless Coyle gets fed cans in the interim.

    Flanagan beats Tommy everyday that ends in a Y.
    Can't see that fight happening anyway
    Buster 30,000 never in a million years mate,the attendances for the previous hull shows weren't great so to get maybe 8 or 9 times as much is impossible.
    Ask yourself would you travel 2,3 or 4 hours to watch that fight? No is the answer

    That's a good leisure centre fight anywhere else in the country.

    I would go to this, its not too far for me.

    Went to Campbells debut and it was a decent show. Got a cheapo hotel and it was a quality night for £100 in total

    Have to disagree with you there Billy, Tommy beats Flannagan for me altho as you say I doubt Steve Wood would put them together as it's too much of a risky fight for both. The Brizuela fight in many ways did Tommy a lot of harm regarding his reputation to take a punch although you might of seen different in sparring Billy?

    I like Coyle, he comes to fight no two ways about it, but he isn't beating Flanagan.

    Campbell v Coyle will be big for Hull, but not a single chance that fight does 30,000.. that's a pipe dream.

    Believe Coyle got dropped heavily twice when sparring Burns.

    Coyle isn't beating Flanagan.. as much as I'd like to be able to say he would. He'd take the fight though that's for sure.
