    Finaly we have a date for selby v barros.
    Its on the eubanks card and although i thought that it was eddie that had some sort of deal with haymon for selby in the uk, im just glad to see him back defending his title.
    Its been a long time since he was in a proper fight, hunter was well over a year ago and you can hardly call his last outing a proper fight.
    How do folks see this going. Ring rust could be a factor here.
    Also barros went over to japan and beat hosono, he was the outsidet in the fight but he went to the kids backyard and beat him.
    Could he do the same to lee selby

    In Japan there is no "home cooking". Decisions are rendered on merit alone. Not so here, sadly. Selby will be 'looked after' by officials even if Barros does enough to win.

    It's a decent fight. 'potential banana skin' would be my go to cliche for it.
