Interesting that there is no women's fights on the card. You can see the grubby hands of the Saudis in that decision

Wouldn’t surprise me if some
More fights are added but at the same time I can see Eubank and his ego arguing for a smaller undercard so he can take home more money.

Not really the card is poor enough as it is and doesn’t need a women’s bout to add salt to the wounds

Are there any non-heavyweight ticket sellers (that don't have fights scheduled) who could have been used to flesh the card out? I can't think of any.

If I can get tickets, and I imagine this show will sell out the decent seats pretty quickly. Mainly casuals going with their mates or hardcore Benn haters. I'm not really interested in the undercard. Not sitting in a stadium from 6pm freezing my knackers off by 11pm main event. No it's the main event I want to see. I'm wanting to watch the main fight for all the wrong reasons, not because I am a fan of the sport, but because I want to see Benn on his arse. Don't care if that's round 1 or 12. I just want to see Benn put in his place.

If you dislike Benn so much, why help make him rich? Just don't watch. If he gets chinned you will get to see it for free the next day.

Does nobody else think undercards are too long ? I can't sit through 4 or 5 hours of often one sided fights before the main event so i pick and choose which ones to watch.

I appreciate it wouldn't really work for the live audience but as a TV viewer i'd be perfectly happy with just 2 bouts on the undercard

This fight is wrong on lots of levels and possibly the worse of those levels is that I am giving Benn far more of a chance than I did when it was originally scheduled - we have now seen how Eubank is now to make 160 and with a dehydration clause and what that does to his resistance. Only thing that is a bit different is he does have time to perhaps do the weight properly. I hope he doesn't do the ego thing and attempt to do 160 "wrong" - like he did in the Smith fight. Yes, it was probably all show I know but he has got to try to do the weight well.

I will reserve my pick until the weigh in, but at the moment I am edging towards Benn and I wouldn't even have considered that before the Smith fight.

Gotta love Turki’s attitude.

Take what he offers. Risks are always gonna be there.

He probably jeopardise other future opportunities now as well.

Why should Azim dance to the Saudi bloke’s tune though. Good on him. He’s 22 he should do whatever he thinks is best for him. And not some puppets plaything

At the end of the day if Azim gets to the level he & the McGuigan’s believe he can get to the Saudi’s will want him on their cards in the future.

Clearly this isn't Azim turning down the fights, it's out of his depth Ben Shalom pulling the strings.

If I were Azim i'd rather be Turki's puppet than Ben's
