    Khan-Kotelnik for a world title, Enzo Mac back in action, Mathew Macklin defending the domestic title, Degale, Gavin and Cleverly all in action, as well as the LMW commenwealth title fight.

    A decent undercard which makes the event more than just one fight, which is usually the case, and definitely a positive move for British boxing.

    Better undercards = more exposure for good fighters, higher attendance, more viewing on television, more value for your PPV money.

    Yeah it's a good stacked card.

    Who d'you think Macklin will be defending against?

    Barker/McDermott is tonight so that rules them both out. Elcock he's just KO'd. Eastman seems happy fighting over in Guyana. McEwan's fighting over in the US, so who else is there?

    Martin Murray possibly? Steve Bendall?

    Bendall seems to be the name everyone is talking about as an opponent.. I think that Macklin will make lighter work of Bendall than McDermott did... it is a decent undercard. I think that we really need to start pushing Pro Am shows on the undercards and start getting the ams the exposure that they deserve..:happy:happy

    Nathan Cleverly fighting Danny Mccintosh for British belt apparently. Think Nath is a guy who is gonna step up soon. I know he's young and there's no rush but he's just destroying evreyone at domestic/european level. Anyone a good move for him and nice to see a pro active. Isn't Williams vs Chisora on that card still? Saw Del last night and like the look of him. Combinations and body work reminds me of a lighter punching Chris Arrolea

    I thought Chisora Vs Williams was off the card. Would like to see Eastman one more time but i think Macklin would be too strong for him. Not a lot for Macklin to chose from tbh maybe Bendall or Martin Murray but i see macklin winning both by ****

    i agree cleverly is a great fighter,mccintosh is a great step for him.danny is a tough kid and a bit of a k/o artist,should be good.
    cleverly looks better every time he fights and seems to have all the tools,good luck to him.

    If I am honest, the undercard to the last khan fight was not bad either - enzo vs ola, cook vs martinez and hall vs pryce.

    Is Cleverley not fighting for the British titleon July 18th? Probably a UK undercard for Mayweather - Marquez?

    I bets that how they will justify a PPV for Money-Marquez.

    Frank will put a card on over here with Clev,Chisora-Williams,The Olympians and Mitchell.

    From what I heard the Williams deal was done, but then you can never tell. The only ones for sure are these:
    Andreas Kotelnik vs. Amir Khan
    Matthew Hall vs. Anthony Small
    Enzo Maccarinelli vs. Denis Lebedev
    Matthew Macklin vs. TBA
    Billy Joe Saunders vs. TBA
    James DeGale vs. TBA
    Frankie Gavin vs. TBA

    Hall Small is the stand out one for me, go Smallys!
