    MIKE GOMEZ – Gets another crack at a title fight when he boxes Ricky Burns for the Commonwealth Super-Featherweight title on the 27th March in Glasgow on a Frank Warren show. Mike has never won a Commonwealth belt and is really up for this one , expect some more fireworks !!!

    GARY SYKES – Has been nominated to fight Anthony Crolla in a eliminator for the British Super-featherweight title , this should be a cracking fight and has to take place by the end of May 2009 unless one withdraws and Gary certainly will not.

    GARY DAVIES – Has been nominated to challenge English champion Jamie McDonnell for the his Bantamweight title.

    MARK THOMPSON – Damaged his hand on the last day of sparring and therefore had to withdraw from Fridays Commonwealth final eliminator.

    MIKE ROBINSON - Will now box a 6rnd contest in London next Thursday after his opponent for Friday night withdrew

    TICKETS - Anyone wishing to attend our 8 fight card at Blackpool tower this Saturday the 24th January can pay in on the night . Tickets for Jamie Moores European title fight can be purchased off any of the boxers or from www.vipbe.co.uk

    Gomez can beat Burns if he turns it into a 4 round war. He is shot but still has 4 rounds in him and Burns can't punch.

    Beyond 4 and Burns wins on pts.

    Glad to hear Gomez has got his shot....definitely his last chance so I hope he makes the most of it, he'll give Burns hell thats for sure :good

    Really suprised that Burns stopped that Amidu fella, especially when the massive hard hitting lightweight Funeka couldn't.....just don't think Gomez has got enough left to pull off the win....but i'll be rooting for him

    crolla sykes sounds like a great match up, and the kind we dont see enough of. two up and coming prospects being pitted against each other.
