    It's officially on, for the vacant British LW title, will be live on Sky. Any thoughts on how this will pan out?

    I'm looking forward to this fight. Think its a decent match up for the British Title now Thaxton has vacated - the older and experienced Meager versus the more youthful Murray.

    Should imagine both will be well up for this one - its a chance for Meager to recapture the Title again after losing it to Thaxton and for Murray its a great opportunity to put in a good performance given the criticism that has come his way following a couple of recent showings.

    Meager has been inactive for a few months since his draw over in the States and with his style I favour Murray to win.

    Definitely one to look forward to but I think Murray will have to much for him in the end.

    Meager is totally done, an easy opponent for Murray. However, Murray has looked that poor in his last few fights it wouldnt surprise me if he struggled... AGAIN.

    I don't think Meager's shot. He struggled vs the Mexican in LV but appeared to win (though he only got a draw). He was fairly sharp vs Komjathi, with his punches. He doesn't look done, mentally or physically, to me.

    Should be a quality fight. I hope Murray looks good, maybe gets a stoppage. It'll be an inside war, which wil suit Murray. Meager is a great opponent for him, and if he comes off with a good result he can go on to have some very good fights.
