[Ruthless-RKO]

Andre Sterling and Ricky Summers will meet in a British Light-Heavyweight Title Eliminator on the stacked O2 show on Saturday 23rd February.

Sterling versus Summers adds to an action-packed evening, promoted by Poxon Sports for Premier Boxing Champion (PBC), headlined with the long-awaited clash between bitter rivals James DeGale and Chris Eubank Jr., the explosive showdown between Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion Joe Joyce and Former World Champion Bermane Stiverne, the return of Former IBF World Featherweight Champion Lee Selby and the UK debut of Marsellos Wilder, exclusively LIVE on ITV Box Office.

28-year-old Andre Sterling’s career has been going places fast. In his last fight out in November 2018, the New Cross fighter was crowned Southern Area Light-Heavyweight Champion after outpointing the tough Kirk Garvey at The York Hall, Bethnal Green.

That career best win put Sterling forward for his British Title Eliminator opportunity and he knows a victory could land him a dream shot at the prized Lonsdale belt.

The former Fitzroy Lodge amateur is now unbeaten in nine fights with four finishing inside the distance since turning pro in April 2017.

This will be the first time Sterling steps out onto the biggest of stages at The O2, but he’s in a bullish mood and is ready to grasp his golden chance.

I wonder what Jnrs reply was to that better for him to have someone who tells it as it is round him

But still, he'll ever be a world beater

[Boxerbeetle]

I actually get the feeling Jnr would have been perfectly receptive to a proper trainer giving proper advice. Shame he didn’t have that from the start, instead of having his dad getting in the ring in a sleeveless waistcoat and proudly staring at him between rounds.

[Exoddus]

Too many bad habits. Shame Ronnie didn't have the balls to say anything years ago.

[Loftgroov]

Eubank late stoppage.

My guess is DeGale is well on the slide now and that will make the difference. Eubank possibly wants it more at this stage in their respective careers too.

[ILikeBeer]

Hopefully Eubank Jr is starting to take his career seriously, and not listening to his dad's garbage as much.

[Oiky]

His dads bullsh*t and ronnie not being assertive filled jnrs head with rubbish

Who has Vasquez trained in the past?

Dont think anyone of note. Pretty sure he is part of TMT set up.

Why all these bensonn tweets all over the place again? He's a fornicating blagger.

I was at the Sterling - Garvey fight. IMO Sterling got a gift and should have lost by 4: very strong guy and decent head movement, but was hitting arms and shoulders all night long while eating clean (albeit lighter) shots. Also looked ready to go in the 8th round.

I think Degale has seen his best days , that much i think most agree , but what i want to see is can he get up for one last hoorah , he had/has , the skills when on form to make Eubank look stupid , got the chin has well , but has he this one last fight in him , after all the carry on and bickering between them , if he can't get up for this one , which should be more about pride than money , he needs to retire , personaly i think he probably does have one more in him , at least i hope so

This made me chuckle

Theres always something a bit David Brent about Degale isnt there

[Tuan_Jim]

Is Degale ever not marked up? He's taken far too many punches.

What good is it him sparring Fowler? Unless it’s for the speed.
