They’ve still not finalised to he Okolie fight, the Conway vs Cissokho fight is now off which was one of the better undercard fights and no Ramla Ali is off the show with Covid (her fight won’t be missed).

Leaves AJ/Pulev, the 2 heavyweight fights and Ashfaq vs Ashley Lane as the confirmed fights.

Just seen Florian Marku vs Alex Fearon has been added. :doh:
Any idea which random team of annoying dickheads will be commentating yet?
lol

they are bound to have haye there up on the fence or even scouse tony

Hayes a BT boy. Nelson will be there. His mates looking after his house. I didn’t even know he was single.

Too late for him to shifted into the WBO's Top 15............

Conway fighting Macauley Mcgowan who will always have a piece of my heart after an 8 round war I watched from a couple of rows back at Harrow Leisure Centre a few years back.

This PPV will do at least a million at 25 quid a pop, so there's really no excuse (other than COVID disrupting a couple of fights) for the shocking undercard here.
It won’t do a million.
I'd be gobsmacked if it didnt. He's consistently done 1 million plus since Takam.

He’s part of AJ’s 258 management company but agreed it’s weird he’s out again quickly after being well beaten.

It seems more and more fighters are getting involved in management which is benefitting their fighters - Billy Joe had a couple on the show on Friday, Dillian usually has Babic and Wardley down for his shows.

It will be there or there abouts I reckon. If I was betting I’d say it’ll do just over 1m buys. Sky’s promotion is going heavy now. Sky Sports Mix is just showing AJ fights or AJ related content and Eddie’s already started pushing it heavily.

What's happened to Riakhpore?

Bellew has some fighters too.

Nevertheless when he fought Klit it was a kamakaze job!
The fight to go the distance is 3/1.

Pulev seems like he'd be hard to get rid of if he's not fighting stupid like he did vs Wlad.

I can imagine Ronald coming out with that - it wouldn’t even be his best line of the night :lol:

He went for Klitschko because he felt like he could chin him in a shootout. At 39, is he going to try the same thing against AJ, another giant with a crackable chin? Hard to tell...

Its not on Dazn UK. because AJ has an exclusive contract with sky i think. But you could VPN to a different country and DAZN it i guess.

No chance im paying a penny with Adam Smith having any input into the broadcast much less growling like an idiot during the fights.
