any gossip on who'll be on? I'm hoping to make a night of it with a few pals and a few beers I just hope it's a decent undercard. Normally when EH is desperate to sell a PPV event there are regular announcements but so far all I've heard is Luke Campbell and Ryan Burnett vs TBA
****in BS undercard- I thought the McGuigans would use the plaform to really springboard their kids but clearly not
Isaac Lowe vs Marco McCullogh - that could be a really good s**** Hosea Burton vs Miles Shinkwin - both unbeaten british title fight, I like hosea Charlie Edwards vs Luke Wilton - nothing much Josh Taylor vs Scott Fitzgerald - apparently they are squaring off but im not sure. this would be an amazing fight as the both were good amatuers and its very early in there career luke Campbell is off the card. Rumours are Gavin McDonnell could be facing off against Jorge Sanchez in a world title eliminator at super bantamweight for the wbc Conrad Cumming will also be having a fight too
Josh Taylor is supposed to be facing off against Scott Fitzgerald and Conrad CUmmings is on the bill too so they are
Josh tweeted it the day it was announced as one of his sponsors thought it was him V Fitzgerald and Josh corrected him saying they weren't fighting each other, both just on the same card.
Good you cleared that up I'd seen it reported elsewhere that they were fighting, which struck me as very weird on both their parts as it would be firgerlads debut and like Taylor's 3rd fight
It's clear to see the promoters are banking on the main event being enough to lure in even the casual fan because, no disrespect, but the undercard is very underwhelming. Gavin McDonnell is a decent fighter but is hardly a big name at the moment and the rest of the undercard is all up and coming fighters who unless you are a boxing nut most will not have heard of them. When EH was desperate to sell the AJ DW fight there were additions to the undercard all the way leading up to the fight but for this one its relatively quiet. Am excited for the main event but won't be parting with £17 to watch it, will try elsewhere to see it. Once again EH taking the ****
