    Looks to be a decent card. Tough fights for Bellew and Stephen Smith. Fielding vs Dodson should be interesting and Kell Brook, Paul smith, callum smith, Kevin Mitchell and kal yafai on the card it looks a good night in store.

    Tough fight for Bellew's first fight at cruiser. The swifty smith fight looks difficult as well. Should be a belting night.

    Not sure mate, it isn't on box rec yet but fielding is fighting Dodson and that isn't on boxrec yet either.

    TBA has a busy night.

    I think this has potential to turn into the awful London card we got last year, except a few fights.

    It looks like a 'lets get as many known names on there as possible then we'll fill the blanks'.

    I will watch though.

    Its exactly that, the Cardiff card was good as even though had less names was a lot of well matched fights...but it looks like Matchroom are reverting to this way

    I agree, it's not a good card until they all have credible opponents. If the majority are going to be involved in one sided beat-downs it could easily become the nonsensical pre christmas debacle we saw last year.

    The 2 fights already made are 50/50 in my opinion and with fielding vs Dodson I'd say its better than the Wales card already.

    You having a laugh!

    Smith vs Fielding would have been 50/50

    Smith v Webb and Fielding v Dodson are 80/20 fights at best.

    The 2 fights I was talking about were the bellew one and Steven smith one. I think its a cracking card and have bought tickets and looking forward to it.

    sorry mate I'm having a complete blank moment, yeah based on that its a decent card (nothing special but certainly not a bad one).

    if your going I dont blame you for looking forward to it, not been to the Echo since Degale v Smith decent venue for boxing isn't it.

    Yeah mate, I went for the Bellew chilemba borefest. That was the last one I went to and its one of the closest venues to me being from the north east. Unfortunately we don't get any major shows up here.
