    Micheal Hunter returns next sunday, although opponent hasn't been named.

    Anyone go to many small hall shows or this thread gonna be a epic fail?..

    Top thread mate, good to see Gary Sykes back in action, wouldn't mind seeing him in with Buckland again.

    :good Cheers BA, I'm hoping people can update with cards local to them or that have good fights. Can help support the raw end of the sport.

    Yeah Sykes will bounce back, Buckland may be his bogeyman but doesn't stop him beating other domestic fighters and a 3rd fight would be a barnburner again.
     
  7. There's often small hall shows in Leeds, but aside from the people attending nobody seems to know about them.

    It's probably why Adil Anwar was a complete nobody until winning PF.

    Yeah i see a lot of shows in BN that are in Leeds area.

    I'm hoping this will maybe wake people up to what's around them, i've missed local shows down road as i've not known or seen anything. Time to get this rolling.

    He looks very sharp, moves head and seems quick of hand and foot. Bit of a slapper with his punches and chin a little high. Looks a entertaining fighter though.

    He should win this really, was talked about fight Curtis Woodhouse.

    Yeah agreed, i'd like to see what he's like when punches come back at him looks very loose in style. May gas as fight goes on if he fights at that pace a lot of feints and bouncing but there was some nice things there.

    10-0 after this time for a step up i'd say..

    Boxnation could show at least one of these a week. It wouldn't cost much and they could surely get a sponsor to cover the shortfall in ticket sales.
