    yeh. i wonder why theres so many bigger domestic fights being made. Brook vs Jennings and Moore vs Rhodes would have never happend 2 years ago.

    I think its partly down to the credit crunch. promoters need bigger fights to sell tickets, and fighters are asking for less money.

    I think sky might of had something to do with Rhodes vs Moore

    Maybe it's clicked all of a sudden that people won't be swindled by **** fights- it's like common sense is prevailing. As for Sky, I hope they did have a hand in making the fight- it's a positive step for British boxing if true.

    i reckon Mitchell vs Burns will be part of the next Khan PPV.

    The EU title is the WBU equivilent or the euro title. Its the EBU belt that has meaning. Its what Moore and Munroe hold etc

    Some excellent fights there. Great for us considering the drought we've had in boxing recently.

    Saville Vs Lawton for the English is the one lol!

    Seriously though that'll be a big night in Wolverhampton!

    Fair play to Errol and PJ for winning the bids for this one, Lawton being the champ an all.
