Skeete and team plastered in box-nation gear would be good to see...

Think Skeete gets a close decision.

maybe Fr@nk W@rren to walk Skeete out.

Ben Wilkes is out of the fight with Renda, Mike Byles in as replacement. Not sure it its still an eliminator for the English?

I'd happily pay more a month to BN If he walks all BN fighters out personally on Matchroom head to toe in the clobber.

[Counter-puncher]

Imagine if Camp Eddie had his own boxing channel

you wouldn't be able to turn around without seeing a boxer in #MatchroomTV branded gear

[ste1983]

Really looking forward to this now genuine proper British title fight this in my opinion (the two best domestically).

Still edging towards Eggington but really close fight could go either way

[Neil Gee]

Come on Eggy!

[Rexob]

Eggington on points.

[fizzjambo]

Skeet by a fairly comfortable 8-4, 9-3 for me.

Looking forward to seeing the Yafi's as well

Gamal v Jenkinson should be a good fight wouldn't bet against Jenkinson upsetting the home fighter...again!

[handsofstone]

Im looking forward to this fight.i think its an interesting match up with classic boxer/fighter clash of styles,Eggington is getting better all the time and is gaining valuble experience each passing fight,especially the last fight against Evans where he got up from a heavy KD,he's always been brave but showed something extra that night,he got up to win which is crucial as he develops,Skeete on the other hand used to be one of my least favourite fighters but not any more,he's styles becoming more suited to the pros, and the bonus from that is that he's developed a bit of a dig,i thought Gavin pipped him to the post but some people thought he won and it sure was close

Im actually struggling to pick a winner in this one,its all about who implements their gameplan more effectivly really,i think both guys will have success and the action will to and fro but i think Bradley might just be a bit too clever for Sam and could get it on points

[handsofstone]

Looking forward to Jenkinson vs Gamal Yafai too,Bobby pulled out a great win against Pettit to win the Commonwealth last time and really deserved it,i thought Wazza and co thought he was cannon fodder for Lewis to claim a major title but Jenkinson really tore up the script that night,Gamal on the other has blown hot and cold for me,there's no doubting he's a classy boxer but i dont know if he can rach the heights his brother Kal is tipped for

Still i fancy Yafai to win on saturday and to stop Jenkinson near the end,another good domestic scrap though

[ElJefe]

Either man on points is 7/4. Leaning towards Skeete myself.

[Stuarty]

Can see this being a tight decision either way. Might come down to what the judges like. Eggingtons aggression or Skeetes boxing. Both will have their moments. Looking forward to this.

[fizzjambo]

Skeet by a fairly comfortable 8-4, 9-3 for me.

Gamal v Jenkinson should be a good fight wouldn't bet against Jenkinson upsetting the home fighter...again!

I've seen nothing of Gamal since he turned pro and this is a good test so I'm looking forward to it.

Kal is a very, very good prospect in my opinion. Very classy.

[Tangerine]

I think Skeete will take him to school IMO,I like Eggington though he's really fought his way up from nothing really from what I read in boxing news its a bit of a road from nothing for eggington to where he is now.I know hrs had Barry backing him big but he's still beat good fighters in his way.

Skeete wide for me though,eggy will come again

Awful card...

I'm not even going to watch this card. ..

Ppv Eddie has ruined Saturday night boxing without having to pay extra...

Greedy sky and I can't wait till the smart boxes makes sky go bust

Really? I'm no Eddie apologist but I can think of many many worse cards than this. I actually think this is a decent card ok there's no massive names on the bill but most fights are competitive. I'd prefer this type bill than a bill full of big names in walk overs.

Agree think ste tho can see people moaning as they might know of some of the undercard fighters cause their not from the Midlands. Being local and knowing the lads like ste I think their are some very good match ups on the card. Wud have gone but going to Rome instead.

[BOYOVERTHEHILL]

If this fight goes the distance,is there a danger of foul play from the judges given the rivalry between Eddie and Frank?
Basically I'm asking if Eggington will be given any favours on the cards?

Yeah you might have a point there mate maybe I see it as a better card than others because of the local interest.

Still even as a tv viewer think I'd prefer to see a fight like Ffrench v Rooney than a bigger name in a 6/8 round walkover. I'm glad that they're showing it on telly fair enough plenty of people watching on tv might think who are these to start but I've got a feeling its gonna be an entertaining fight!

Have a good time in Rome

[Butti99]

I think it's a very good card with a lot of 50/50 fights on it
People moan about jumped up stars beating up road sweepers, which they have a good point.i see good even matches in this
Egginton v skeete
Gamal v Jenkinson
Rooney v Ffrench
Wiggins v fields
Chello renda always exciting
Aswell as Kal and a few more
