    Stevenson is fighting for the WBO

    I don't begrudge Warrington a softer touch after a run of tough fights and admittedly I don't know a thing about this guy but surely they can do better than number 116 on Boxrec?

    Think it had to he someone within IBF and they don't have a 2 or 3. So slightly tricky

    It’s a reasonable fight and a decent undercard, so no complaints from me.

    This guy has been in two scheduled 12 round fights in the last five and a half years. I don't begrudge Warrington an easier fight but there's no way this should be even close to competitive.

    How has Bateson settled into the pro game? Know they were bigging him up massively as an amateur.

    Boxrec make it up as they go along, I wouldn't take too much notice of them.
    In the same division they have qais ashfaq who is 7,0,0 at no 165 and Reece Mould who is 12, ,0,0 and English champ at no 187.

    Warrington has earned an easier defence and lets face it with it being Leeds it will sell no matter who he faces

    Undercard looks decent too. Always enjoy watching Jordan McCorry and I like the look of Williamson v Mansouri.

    Reasonable fight? Come on mate. It’s poor. He deserves a breather don’t get me wrong! But let’s not dress it up. Selby, Frampton and Galahad is as tough a run as any current boxer has had.

    Oh and he did swerve Stevenson.

    At this rate he could be fighting Mick Conlan! This is pointless against a no hoper!

    Frank said they made an offer to Quigg but he is "unavailable"

    Mid cycle?
