Sykes v Burns! Burns is fighting for a world title!!

[alexpaterson]

Meezache vs Murray should be a good one I fancy Murray. I hope Lindsay beats Arthur to set up a fight between him and Simpson that should be a cracker

[leforge]

When will Murray happen I wonder. Also Audley v Albert Sonowski is due for March sometime.

.

I thought that Chisora v Skelton on February 13th was for the English Title? Does this mean that it is an eliminator?

This was confirmed as being in Newport?

Sykes v Burns! Burns is fighting for a world title!!

The Board have been acting like a bunch of clowns with their British Super Featherweight title decisions for about 18 months, and they seem to be quite happy to continue to make silly decisions well into the future as well.

Kevin Mitchell is also still listed as their British champion at Super Featherweight. They also have Tyson Fury listed as the English champion even though he was stripped.

[leforge]

I feel sorry for Sykes. The board need to sort this out asap!

[stujones]

When did the BBBoC start saying the actual name of the promoter. We usually have the name firm (e.g. Matchroom etc) but not the promoters name.

I wasn't sure if Ricky held the promoters licence.

They are fighting for the Southern Area belt mate:

Individuals are issued with promoters licences, not companies.

Yes I know - just I always thought the BBBoC never announced the individual who held the licence in these PR. Always thought they used to say "matchroom" "Hatton promotions" etc.
