If the money's right and there's a title on the line - why not ?
wont get high viewing numbers , in my opinion wouldnt be worth channel 5s while .

Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
Wouldnt they nomally do that on undercards though , Just seems it could be a big mistake as im not gonna expect big viewing figues so dont want it to put 5 off a bit , if that makes sense .danfoster wrote:I understand why you say that BUT they are looking to bring through their own future stars hence Eubank jr, Barry and Fury (all below 25 yrs).damianhucker1 wrote:Not really a main event terrestial tv type of match though is it ?????

You was right , still seems odd though .

Phil Fury vs Lee Noble
and Leigh Wood vs TBA
does anyone know who else is on it
Not that i can attend anyway as ive a show on same date at Dinnington (Border of Worksop and Rotherham) Virtually next door .
Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth

Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
Yeah i know where you're coming from but they've already been down to the gym to film him for their promotional trails - there's gonna be plenty of hype and promotion from the Channel so hopefully they'll build sufficient interest.damianhucker1 wrote:Wouldnt they nomally do that on undercards though , Just seems it could be a big mistake as im not gonna expect big viewing figues so dont want it to put 5 off a bit , if that makes sense .danfoster wrote:I understand why you say that BUT they are looking to bring through their own future stars hence Eubank jr, Barry and Fury (all below 25 yrs).damianhucker1 wrote: Not really a main event terrestial tv type of match though is it ?????

Why won't it get good viewing figures, if channel 5 get behind it there is no reason this fight don't get over 1.5 million viewers.
Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
It get at least a million. Would like Hennessy to give Eubank a fight in Brighton.h smithy wrote:damianhucker1 wrote:Not really a main event terrestial tv type of match though is it ????? Surely not ???twenty six wrote:John Ingle is Mick's matchmaker.

Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
Because neither are household names , Neither is fury but its far easier to sell a big heavyweight to joe casual than it is a bantamweight fight , people who visit boxrec will tune in but will average joe , time will tell .h smithy wrote:damianhucker1 wrote:Not really a main event terrestial tv type of match though is it ?????

Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
its whats known as good matchmaking isnt it , Booth said he dont want to continue at sbw but then takes this fight for whats likely to be descent pay , booth should never be ruled out but can see him getting stopped again .tear up wrote:cant see why jason jumped into such a big fight cant see him winnin this
Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
un less jason has sparred him a few times and bashed him up and when asked about the fight jumped at it i thought he was going back to bantam weightdamianhucker1 wrote:its whats known as good matchmaking isnt it , Booth said he dont want to continue at sbw but then takes this fight for whats likely to be descent pay , booth should never be ruled out but can see him getting stopped again .tear up wrote:cant see why jason jumped into such a big fight cant see him winnin this

Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
Ghalad isnt a big banger so Booth probably thinks he can out skill him, im guessin thats why he is taking it plus Channel5 will lap up his back story to get the viewers in.
Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
I've seen only a very little bt of Galahad and he has good coordination and reflexes. I'm not sure if Jason canbeat him at this stage. I'd love to see Booth sit in on commentary for one of the channels; he really knows his stuff and can read a fght and I really like how honest he is.

Re: Kid Galahad v Jason Booth
No not a banger but i just think quigg will have took a lot out of him and booth is small and a weaker puncher so isnt likly to discourage Galahad , If Booths resistance is still fine he could give galahad a tough time , its pretty much a descent crossroads fight , no more no less .tear up wrote:un less jason has sparred him a few times and bashed him up and when asked about the fight jumped at it i thought he was going back to bantam weightdamianhucker1 wrote:its whats known as good matchmaking isnt it , Booth said he dont want to continue at sbw but then takes this fight for whats likely to be descent pay , booth should never be ruled out but can see him getting stopped again .tear up wrote:cant see why jason jumped into such a big fight cant see him winnin this
