    Ridiculous that Joshua gets top of the bill

    sure the Quigg fight should be no?

    Reality is Joshua is the reason the place is packed not Quigg, same with Campbell in Hull, Quigg fight is of course a way better and proper fight but truth is Joshua is the main name on the bill

    Remember when Freddie Flintoff was top of the bill fighting 3 x 2 minute rounds?

    This really isn't too bad.

    people like Joshua,looks like the new Bruno to me...

    the Quigg fight was class i thought he did more than enough to win fairly easily

    Well I wouldn't walk up to him on the street and embrace him, he might get the wrong end of the stick and hit me.

    Agree, should Selby really be bottom of the bill when he's putting his european and british titles on the line? especially when above him in the pecking order is campbell pencilled in for a few rounds against a punch bag!

    It severely hurts the sports credibility and shows Matchroom and Skys approach to boxing is still based on money and marketing.

    The UFC lead the way again and no matter who the fight, titles are what the sport is about so heads the show even when it was lower weight fights or women.

    It's sad that years go by and the sport continues to be run like a joke.
