    Looks to me like the game is in a good place in Scotland at the minute with Josh Taylor in the Super Series and talk of his first fight in in taking place here. Also lots of prospects and active promoters.

    I think Taylor can win the Super Series and if he does he leads the way for big nights up here?

    Hope you're right. There's been an okay amount of domestic clashes as well, I'd like to see this continue & pick up a bit.

    Wouldn't mind seeing Benson v Easton next year.

    I see McFadden has turned pro with Joe Ham Snr.

    Hopefully get him in some meaningful fights. Don't think Reece needs to be held back.

    Ah, I used to have him on twitter but he never posted anything. Think he can do well and get a decent following as a pro

    Easton wins that one for me -- Benson has no power at all

    Would tend to agree with you mate, but would enjoy the build up!

    Does anyone know why MTK Scotland broke off from MTK and rebranded under Sam Kynoch's name?

    I spoke to someone who is friends with one the the boxers and he said that sam had decided to go his own way but that mtk had called all of the boxers to ask them who they wanted to stay with so the ones that left wanted to go with the new company

    from what I saw it ended on good terms -- hope so because we dont need people not working together up here!!!!

    So is MTK Scotland still on the go, just not under Kynoch? I know from his last fight Benson was under the MTK Global banner.
