Yes, it's 2x atmosphere killers and McKinson up next. :brick:
Perhaps that's it , absolutely no atmosphere at all .
Loads of empty seats too .
There will always be empty seats early on these shows. The ticket holders will be more interested in getting photos with the boxers there and getting food/drink.

Don’t like McKinson’s style. Is it wrong to want to see him banged out because of it?

He'd struggle to hit him clean for a few rounds.

It's pretty one-sided stuff. I can't see Runowski causing any surprises any round soon if he keeps coming in straight lines like this.

He won't get the gig with either Benn or Mckinson after what he did to Kelly .
Talking of Kelly , what's happening with him ?

Potentially yeah if McKinson boxed negatively, which he probably would. Different tonight as he's favourite and he's tried to get on the front foot against a limited opponent. Styles and all that!

McKinson.
I think Benn/Avenysan is 50/50.

Weird that McKinson is going the WBO route… he has Garcia, Ortiz, Garcia and I think Porter above his number 5 status.
Is Eddie just trying to feed him to the wolves for a big event?

Tonight’s fight card has been dull, about as much fun as watching paint dry.

It’s not the fighters fault, just terribly dire matchmaking.

I’m hoping the next two bouts are exciting to watch.

Price just doesn't punch with any authority, and on the move he goes backwards in straight lines without throwing anything.

If he doesn't iron this out he is likely to get KO'd

Been a shitefest so far , let's hope the co and main event are better .
British boxing is in a very low place currently ,
Perhaps it's a cyclical thing and good things are around the corner .

I’m currently drinking Leffe, which is pretty strong beer, but I agree… I clearly need something much stronger.
