    Liam Smith will take on Michael Soro for the vacant WBO Super Welterweight (154lb) title in Manchester on October 10th.

    Smith is 20(10)-0-1; and Michael Soro is 27(17)-1-1.
    Liam Smith also has a tune up in September against Kris Carslaw 22-5.
    How do you guys see this fight going?

    The bill will also feature Billy Joe Saunders challenging Andy Lee for his WBO Middleweight (160lb) Title &
    Terry Flanagan making a defence of his WBO Lightweight (135lb) Title against Diego Magdaleno.

    Smith Lee and Flannegan all to win.

    A little disappointed we are not seeing Flannegan v Matthews though

    I think that Terry's defence against Magdaleno is a mandatory defence?

    I don't really see the point in that, if Flanagan wins he'll probably defend against Matthews in Liverpool with Liam Smith and Paul Butler also on that show - makes more sense as this one is stacked enough to be an easy sell - or at least it is in my opinion.
    Cheapest tickets are £80.00 though I believe.

    tickets at the back are as low as 35, but over 80quid+ for lower tier, decent upper tier ones also 80quid+. Ridiculous pricing really.
