I only just relised this is competing with a UK ufc event, with Darren till in a good fight too.
Seems mental to accept that clash of schedules, ufc normally announce those events months and months out, I would of shifted a week if I was Eddie.
Its in Vegas but staggered for UK time. Till fights at 11:45pm according to Paddy Power.
If it was FW card I’d say it’s a clash, but Hearn usually has his main event before 10:30pm

Oh, Well, a UK timed UFC. still a big issue for viewing numbers i imagine, although admittedly the leeds show might of been made befor UFC said they were going to stagger the time.

3 really good fights on this card.
I'm not sold on Lara as a top fighter yet, and think Warrington can hurt him this time around. Two all action fighters - one of those fights like Froch/Groves II, Wilder/Fury, Joshua/Ruiz II and Frampton/Quigg that is a big arena/stadium headliner AND a total 50/50.
Hughes/Straffon is a really nice fight, and then I'm also intrigued to see how well Benn can perform against Granados, and what the tactics are.
Those three fights (the rest are of zero interest) should be great.
I also enjoy pretty much all of Katie Taylor’s fights but I can understand why people don’t.
The Hopey Price fight is a decent one too although I’m not a fan of his style.
It makes a nice change where we have almost a full card of fights where the B side will be trying to win. Compared to the BT show last week where 4 of the 6 televised fights had opponents who I genuinely don’t think were going in trying to win the fights.
3 decent looking fights and a couple more where the B side will try to win? sounds ace.

I’m buzzing for this, primarily for the main event. Honestly, I used to find watching Warrington pretty dull due to a lot of his fights following the exact same pattern (high volume 12 round decision with neither guy being particularly hurt at any point) but the first Lara fight was so different that I’m really looking forward to seeing how the rematch plays out.

Hughes Straffon is a good fight I'd have it chief support.
Katie Taylor is 1/50 to win so I'm assuming that won't be competitive. Ebanie Bridges is also 1/50 to win.

Warrington, Benn, Taylor and Bridges are never in bad fights, this bill is more than acceptable.
Really looking forward to the Warrington fight.

bridges being lumped in there
what barn burners has she had , aside from losing 8-2 to shan courteny? that enough to revise all her fights into having been wars or something?
i agree, good card overall though, interested in lara-josh, maxi-straf, and benn-granados

Price wasn't up against much but got the job done well, I did think that the ref jumped in a bit early.
Also good that Eddie has put on a good few local boys
