The fight isn't listed on Boxrec. Is this just an omission or has the fight been cancelled?

Didn't even know it was happening. Is is a British title eliminator ??
I fancy Gammer to get himself back on track and take care of Kenna if it does happen.

Its supposed to be on June 10, isnt it?
I would fancy Gammer to take care of business inside the distance, unless Kenna can uncork a couple of those right hands that knocked out Wayne Llewelyn.

The Welsh press (local) have been saying that Gammer is fighting McDermmott in June(ish).... Date and Venue not confirmed.

Best place for that fight is on the Bernard Dunne undercard.

That was some shot Sprott hit him with that night. I remember the crowd being shocked into an eerie silence. Nothing compared to the shock Kenna got, he went down like he'd been shot.

I'm sure it was a left that knocked Colin clean out. All he remembers is doing quite well and the next the ref saying 8, 9 etc.

Was a left to the body followed by a left hook to the head. The head shot did the damage.

Spoke to Paul Boyce; they've had to settle for Paul King. They're not happy about it but couldn't do any better at this stage and will treat it as a tool sharpener/confidence builder.

What happend to the Egobe, he hadn't fought in years but seemed to be a bit of a puncher. It would have been a little bit more interesting than King.
However, at least King would guarentee some rounds... there was a lot of "who knows" with Egobe.

Franklin Egobe used to spar with Lennox Lewis, and Matt Skelton. But for some reason he's not had a fight since 2004.

Was it Simpkin it did the damage with an accidental elbow?
Did you not fancy having a crack at Gammer, Billy? When are we going to see you back in action as its been a while now?

As far as I know. Egobe was already scheduled to fight in Britain in 2005 but failed a medical due to a heart murmur.
