Earl looking to conquer Europe at the Palace

Post by kevin »

Graham Earl will take on European champion Juan Melero-Diaz at the National Sports Centre in Crystal Palace on the 14th July.

In an intriguing chief support, Pete McDonagh shows he's got loads of bottle by taking on Yuri Romanov over eight rounds.

Also featuring Jamie Moore.

David Haye's European title fight will now take place at the York Hall on the 21st July.

No fights in August. So possibly could be September.

According to Steve Wood, Sky have knocked back Moore-Macklin in July, and the fight will probably take place in September.

Indeed he will but he's as tough as they come and will go the full 8 while still throwing as much leather at the end as he did at the start .

Well lets hope Romanov comes to fight this time. I've always been a fan of Yuri, but I thought he was terrible against Earl!!! On his previous form he should have destroyed Earl.

I didn't think Romanov was terrible against Earl, he looked rusty but definitely not terrible.

By his own standards he had a mare!! No workrate, poor accuracy, shite defense. Rust was a major factor (I hope), but terrible for Romanov none the less. Flashes of class, but he could not sustain it.
