    your questions are as genuine as Conor's PED test defence and Eddie's responses to his wife when she asks why he was out for 2 days for that meeting with Skye Nicholson.

    Hearn didn’t respond to the rumours ?

    I thought it was a “Prospects” show since it was on a Friday night at York Hall. I am actually looking forward to the two main bouts and will be watching. I presume BT are waiting to announce more shows because of Fury.

    I don't think it's Fury, TNT starts on 1 July, so I think they want to release a schedule at the official opening.

    Good luck to them keeping things quiet that long. There's virtually no big casual-friendly fights can be kept quiet for 2-3 months, given people in boxing speak to each other and promoters can't keep quiet about each others' shows. And of course the various YouTube channels all ask promoters about their rivals so they're always tempted into an answer.

    I'm guessing there will be a launch party thing for TNT in May or June? So will be done there

    Still quite a few tickets left for this York Hall show. Dev Sahni will be doing the ring announcements. Hutchinson is only 24, hopefully he wins and catapults himself back into contention for domestic bouts.

    Always showed a lot of promise in his early fights, I remember him getting quite a lot of hype from the ingle gym at the time but seems to have stagnated last few fights. As you say, he's still young and hopefully he can push on

    Tommy TNT Fury must be after royalties for using his name.

    Friday night at the York Hall, the home of Boxing.

    There is usually an unexpected cracking fight that appears in this world famous hall.

    @CST80 Can you start an RBR for this when you have time please ? Thanks.:applaudit:
    The hype was warranted to be fair he was World Amateur Champion. He should beat Maderna to be honest. Itauma underperformed in that fight and probably didn't expect Maderna to pose a challenge.
    Probably Zorro Burton ? Burton said if he loses he will retire. Last time Zorro fought was on BT at York Hall I believe against Dec Spelman in an 8-rounder and it was a FOTY contender.

    A brutal KO.

    Hosea said he'd retire if he lost this fight. Surprised he moved up from LHW to CW.

    Hope he keeps to his word.
