Troy James v Ronnie 'The Shark' Clark

[daviddee]

The cut happened 2 and a half weeks ago. Nothing was said. Was done sparring Terry Flannigan. Troy Continued to spar since and fight was called off this morning. Troy and his team having banter on twitter 2 days ago no talk of a cut. If the cut in sparring is as horrific as they say surely an experienced cuts man Dean Edwards would know straight away. We all know what the plan is they know Walsh is pulling out of the fight with the winner of Sykes v Kay's so they want that. I hope the board do the right thing. We will see

Any pictures of the cut posted on Twitter / Facebook ?

Nothing yet. Dean has responded a couple of posts up. I don't understand if the cut keeps opening why you would continue sparring?? My opinion is you would stop sparring until it healed then restart sparring if that was too long you would call off the fight. Fighters safety is first and if the cut is as bad as they say then I agree 100%. I'm just unhappy with the way it's been dealt with could easily of said Troys cut doesn't look good hold off on making arrangements to come down?? Again if the cut is that bad Troy will be out for at least 3 months so surely this eliminator will be cancelled and a new one set or Ronnie made mandatory

Regardless of the rumours walsh is mandatory so the board will just agree to set a new date for troy and ronnie. I do understand your frustration about the travel and money maybe in hindsight they cud of handled it better.

Is this fight still on in September heard a couple of lads on undercard r now on another show.

[freddydoesdallas]

I've not heard anything to say it's cancelled yet? Been busy with other stuff so haven't heard much about it at all

Spoke with Tommy Gilmour on friday and he wanted to know about the amount of tickets Ronnie needed for the fight stating that tickets were selling fast and it wasn't the biggest venue. So unless something has happened over the weekend and we haven't heard about it then i think it will be going ahead!!

If they can't sell enough tickets or manage to put the fight on we are running a show in Aberdeen in October and we can put the fight on there? It will be a great tear up from 2 fighters who don't like to take a backwards step!! It has the potential for fight of the year written all over it.

Davie what date you guys putting the show on?

[David McAllister]

Thats good mate any news on the undercard tempted to go this show myself

[freddydoesdallas]

I would imagine that a lot of the Red Corner Gym fighters will be on it, boxingcutsman should be able to help out but i'm guessing Joe Sheriff, Samson Sykes, Sullican Mason etc

[mickey1975]

Team Clark must be off the forum or they'd have been all over this!

[freddydoesdallas]

They were good fun the last time too!

Brilliant mate, thank. If I don't see you before hand, best of luck with Ronnie but and sure if he won't need it.

[DougieCampbell]

Shaping up nice that show. Good to see Matty back. Should be looking at title fights soon.

We kind of not gonna say to much on it, hopefully Troy can't stay fit and no injuries and this can happen, ronnie needs to be active and this has kept him out ring a fair amount of time, if he wins it will be fun and games again as no doubt he'll be messed about with a fight with Sykes, gonna be a lot of politics in our life in September, ;)

The only politics you boys will need to be worrying about in September is whether to vote 'yay' or 'nae' on the referendum

I'm not going to be able to attend this one, have a big family occasion that night so will have to get the result from here.
