And we got neither. Some guy who has never fought outside of Mexico with six losses no name on his record. Massive tape back for Campbell after a decent 2016.jameswilson wrote:Campbell v Mendy according to that article.rio wrote:Hopefully Campbell vs Cardle on the undercard
Can't see that happening just yet, Allen just looking for a win under his belt against some Latvian, which he more than deserves after his last two fights.wesshaw1985 wrote:Luke Campbell vs. Jairo Lopez
Tommy Coyle vs. Kofi Yates
Dave Allen now added to the undercard. Hopefully against an Ian Lewison or somebody around that level...
Agreed looks like I'll just tune in at 10pm for the main event.TheGingerBomber wrote:Starting to think this card is absolutely dog shite.
Allen against a bum, no Coyle/Yates (looks that way), Burnett against a poor opponent.
Luke Campbell in another pointless fight.
I give props to Eddie sometimes but this time he needs a slap.
If I was from Hull and they put Coyle and Campbell on against nobodies I'd tell them to stick it.
Allen against a TBA Bum is a relatively even contest.TheGingerBomber wrote:Starting to think this card is absolutely dog shite.

I can see where your coming from, European level is a bit of a strange one, outside of the UK and Germany the talent pool is quite shallow, Russia produce good fighters but rarely fight for the European title, i'd say in half of the divisions, not including the world titlists, if a fighter is proven the best in Britain he's a good chance of already being the top fighter in Europecrusader wrote:Is Parodi really an EBU level fighter, rather than an EBU-EU one? Ya, he has a bunch of wins, but most of them are over crap.
The guy who nearly shut him out last time (someone Jamie outpointed a few years ago) is more of an EBU level guy IMO.
If Vargas travels well and fights to his Mexico form mcdonnell will struggle.handsofstone wrote:You've got to give McDonnell credit(and Hearn) I thought he would do well to win a British so for him to win the European title surpassed my expecatations , his record might not be murderers row but he's already beat some guys I thought he would struggle with, guys like Wale, Burkinshaw and Wood, Yegorov was unbeaten and Parodi was a solid European level fighter and Gavin's still plugging away unbeaten and he's got this shot so fair play to him and his team
Ive been hearing of Vargas for a while now, BM tipped him as a potential star of 2017 before this fight got made and his numbers look good and he seems to have a bit of power as well as being decent technically, he hasn't fought any real live opponents yet though so there is a slight chance he might be hyped and Gavin can do to him what Jamie did to Ceja to become world champ
Gavin's not as good as Jamie though and I think Vargas might be better than Ceja so I think a world title might be a step too far for McDonnell, no disgrace though because Vargas may well to go on to become a big name if he becomes world champ, being an unbeaten big punching Mexican and all
Gavin is not on Jamie's level but he does have a lot of similar attributes, height and reach and a great engine who grows as the fight progresses, I fancy Vargas to win but I think McDonnell might make it to the end
Coldwell happy to take Price's money and then happy to hang him out to dry again. With friends like him who needs enemies.wesshaw1985 wrote:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuohLBCY0EE
