    been hearing my mate jason easton could be fighting mitch buckland for the celtic super lightweight title on the undercard of josh taylor vs dave ryan.:good

    really good fight for jason at this stage of his career and I'm sure he will be looking to impress and get the belt, this could maybe lead to a match up with jason and the overrated lewis benson who has been given a couple of gift decisions against jason in the ams:good:good

    mitch is a decent boxer but i think that jason will prove to have too much for him and even though he doesn't train him anymore I'm sure that billy will be getting lots of feedback from ally black about mitch buckland.:good

    hopefully billy nelson can tell us if this is true and how he sees the fight going?:good

    This a a great fight for both lads, I beleive Jason is improving greatly under his coach Kenny and will be a handful for most light welter so, Jason is now growing into the pro game and getting stronger each fight, super chance to win his first tomitle I'm sure he will have over 200 fans shouting him on.
    Respect to Mitch for coming to Scotland, there should be more like him instead of getting padded records against grossly overmatched opponents👍

    Would be great if this was on the undercard. Been impressed with Easton in the couple of times I've seen him on the MGM shows.

    Easton v Benson a few fights down the line would sell very well in Edinburgh. Hope they both keep winning!

    Definitely with Easton and Benson. How many times did they box in the ams?

    Mitch is a lot better than he gets credit for this is a really hard fight.. Good to see a proper 50/50 fight hopefully Jason will get through this and move on to British level
