Latest Championship News - Charlton won! Are they confirmed? Because I though McCloskey was facing Witter for the European title? If they are, then Cleverly-McIntosh will be a very good fight. Same with Smith-Quigley.
some great fights there especially cleverly-mckintosh and quigly smith and barker mcdermott the BBBofC are doing the right fights nd enforcing mandatories
Why did Dean Francis relinquish? Has he retired or something? Some decent fights there if they come off. Will Murray fight Thaxton given that they're both promoted by Hennessey? I'm sure both fighters would take the fight 'no danger' as Jono would say and Murray is often complaining about a lack of activity. I'd back Murray to win as Thaxton has been to the well too many times.
