    What are your thoughts on this interesting little fight between Chris Edwards and Andy Bell for Edwards British Super Flyweight title?

    I like the look of this fight and although neither is a world beater the fight should be a showcase for some good old fashioned boxing. I think Edwards should still have enough in him to defend his title and come out a clear UD winner.

    I am going to the fight, it is to be held at my local gym at the Metrodome Sports centre so im getting pretty hypede up now. Frank has treated us South Yorkshire fans to some good bouts recently and this card looks impressive.

    Jason Rushton vs Danny Reynolds fight for the Central Area Light Middle Weight belt in a fight I think Reynolds will come out on top in.

    Jamie McDonnell vs Lee Haskins is another good bout between two fighters I have not seen live but caught a few glimpses of on tv.

    Some other lads on the card worth mentioning are Kevin Concepcion who is a dangerous banger and a good undefeated middleweight, Craig Watson is supposed to be on the bill and two of my favorite local lads Ross "the boss" Burkinshaw and Billy Boyle.

    Hopefully the fights are still on and hopefully the card is still taking place, I have been looking forward to the fights for awhile now.

    Dwilson - check out Tyrone Nurse (ESB's Night-Nurse) making his pro-debut on the undercard against Kristian Laight. :good

    I wondered if that was him. I'll have to try and pm him and give him good luck. :yep I'll give him a shout out.

    Kristian Laight is a good guy, I sat next to his gf in Doncaster at a fight. He is durable but Night Nurse will win.

    I did not mention Danny Wallace is fighting, seen him a few times and he may do alright for himself with some building up.

    Night-Nurse usually posts in the VIP Boxing threads. Sure he would appreciate a good luck PM but don't think he has enough posts to send one back yet - he is a newbie bless him! Hope he does well Friday. :good

    Think you need 50 posts to send a PM.

    Not sure of any other Privileges - hope I'm not missing out on anything!

    Yes, good luck to Night-Nurse. :good

    I'm saying good luck to Kristian Laight in this one, he's due a win. Let's not be down on him just because Night-Nursy has posted on ESB a couple of times. :roll:

    Come on the Laight!

    Kristian is quite a good fighter... Boxes better as a southpaw though and looks the part I heard he was a good amateur and can believe it.

    Yep. :good


    I have seen him quite a few times and although he has lost every single time he has always left a good impression on me. He is a decent fella too and his gf is blinding. :yep

    Kristian can be stylish but does enough to get the job done. I think the last time I saw him fight was against Stefy Bull, another good lad.
