I do not think Adeleye's career will go anywhere, he has arrogance that is not matched with ability.

I hope Fisher fights Allen.

i was groaning about that rematch too - every fight for sol he needs to go forward given he only has 8 fights at 30, shouldnt be going over old ground vs a low profile opponent so soon.

but then remembered it's a pretty short notice replacement for what was a good fight for him. not too bad considering, often short replacements are total knockovers. sol has a chance to show first fight was just an off night

Dacres now rematching Michael Webster on July 20th.
ar that's underwhelming
It’s a weeks notice… so that’s fine I guess. Also it was an MD so that’s probably a worthy rematch…. Still dosent rule him out for august 20 if he dosent get hit much…

Dacres just won, didn’t see the fight but 7th round stoppage. In shape, if he didn’t take damage would be epic to get fisher in for the English.

Problem is I think Ed would see an English title fight as a headline type thing, or a massive ticket shifter thing… so I can’t see him doing it this soon after fisher has had a big fight, unless catteral is realllllly struggling to sell tickets.

I bet Catterall is struggling. Just saw Stevie Nicks at the same venue. It's huge. Irrespective of big black curtains.

Carty be a good fight, he's usually on Matchroom too so should not be too hard to make. I think they'll do a couple of strong Europeans now or Bracamonte types to hopefully get him rounds.

If the loser of Juggernaut v DelBoy looks completely shot (highly likely) they'd be a good name on the record.
As would Wilder.

If you could pay them enow for "one last fight" could be an event.

Realistically...

I voted Gorman. Allen, TKV would sell a bit too ?
He's gotta be carefully matched obviously, but after that Dacres for English would be reasonable..

Fisher’s next opponent is Andriy Rudenko.

He's an experienced pro but he's old and isn't going to come to win. Fisher will likely get decision over 10 rounds which i guess is what they're after.

makes sense, usually very durable. was stopped by anderson but never went down. by accounts the sirenko stoppage was comically bad so i dont read much into that as far as declining durability

The last couple of times I’ve seen him he’s had a bit of a go too.

Good matchmaking I think.

I'm OK with getting ten rounds in.
My guess is eventually they go for the British.

Rudenko is silly tough. I could see fisher stopping him early if he just swarms him and there’s a million unanswered shots. Big risk though of gassing goong for that.

If fisher puts him on the floor that would be an exceptional result even against a 40 year old. If he stops him it’s great especially if quicker than the very hyped Anderson. But if he goes 10 rounds and wins that’s a great learning result especially when eying English and brittish…

Seems a smart short notice pick, unless fisher somehow loses or breaks his hands in Ben all results are good for his career or his hype.

Nathan Gorman? Really? He's the most underwhelming opponent on the whole list. He'll last three rounds max. He could have been good, but he clearly can't be arsed.

I don't think we'll see him in the ring again, he's a bit John Mcdermott although John did win the English title. Two gents who are travellers but seem far too nice for boxing.

Think that's a tad harsh on John McD! He beat Fury first time round. I'd still only make Gorman a slight favourite against Tyson's Dad!

Saying a fight announcement is imminent. The biggest stage apparently so maybe the Usyk v Fury undercard. People suggesting Dave Allen but I hope it’s not that fight.

Allen recently said that the fight he was going to have in November is off because another fight has come up. So, that would fit with him fighting Fisher in December.

Rumour is Dave Allen been offered Fisher or Moses itauma both before Christmas & is playing both promotors off for the biggest payday , fair play to him probably his last decent payday .

If he can get paid the same for them both, he should fight Fisher. Better chance of winning. He has a chance of being able to survive to the final bell against both of them.
