i wonder who big fraser will debut against

a lot of ppl seem oddly into 'good fight!'-ing eric molina fights, im sure frazer would do a 1 round job on floppy eric, plus could say 'debuted vs a world title challenger' and all that jazz

Yeah - certainly an older batch than we’ve seen before.

Hearn is announcing another Olympic signing tomorrow who’ll make their debut on the Okolie undercard.

It's because of funding. You don't need to turn over early. I'd guess its Whittaker tomorrow, I can't stand the bloke so be prepared for ten years of me slating him....

Yeah - a good wage and most things paid for you - it’s hard to walk away from.

Could be Whittaker (and likely is I think) or Gal Yafai or Lauren Price I guess. To save us from you slating him non-stop I’m hoping it’s Yafai!

Phew! Saves us from your comments on Whittaker for a little while at least. They’re talking about Yafai fighting for a title on his debut. I think he’s got the ability but would be worried about him going 10/12 rounds out of the gate.

It’s strange Whittaker hasn’t turned over yet. Sometimes fighters just wait too long and they lose the momentum they had. People like Khan or AJ could have waited as they were big names coming out of the Olympics but the other guys should be looking to turn over fairly quickly for me.

That may be why he hasn’t signed with anyone yet.

He really got on my tits. I thought he lost two bouts then when he got well outboxed he screamed robbery.

For whatever reason, they dont tend to sell round there. Yafai will be used all over as he has a great story and a gold medal.

I didn’t mind him too much. I thought he easily lost the final but didn’t have much issue with his other 2 wins to be honest.

They need someone to get people really excited I think and it’ll be a struggle for a flyweight to do that. Hope I’m wrong though as Birmingham isn’t too far for me to go to.

Fair play and glad to see Yafai and his team taking a risk.
