Was more thinking Flanagan, Smith, Saunders (both) etc.
But cheers for lobbing the obvious non ticket seller on there Palooka, good lad.
It's just with the rumoured poor ticket sales, I wondered how many of the sales stand apart from the actual main event. It's a legitimate question.
It is a legitimate question and I'm sorry if I came across snotty, I was just joking.

It is a legit question and I wouldn't be surprised if 40-50% of the tickets were sold by the undercard, if not more.

I read somewhere that Saunders had shifted around a thousand tickets. (not BJS). He wasn't originally on the bill but got added after he blew away his last opponent in a round, on the undercard of Hall/Butler.
Tom Stalker apparently sells 500-700 tickets too.

Just imagine ......
99% of me thinks that this won't happen.
If it does, 99% of the remaining 1% of me thinks that Fury would smash him to bits.
Which leaves ..... 1% of 1% that Audley could win - just imagine if they fought, Fury was sloppy and Audley caught him with a cracking shot and knocked Fury out.
It would be like a modern day Rocky film !!

I hope its Audley, I really do - for someone who has had so many chances and failed he is still kind of box office

It will never happen but surely the most sensible option is staring them in the face ? Fury against Chambers. Where is Chambers going fighting bums hidden away on the undercard ? Hennesey will never be able to get a ranked fighter over to the UK to fight Chambers as the figures wont add up. He'll never sell a ticket in England, so his only chance to gatecrash the world scene again is for him to get into a mandatory spot. A victory over Fury would potentially see to that.

As much as I think Audley is a busted flush, I'd give him an outside chance against Fury - provided of course he doesn't freeze.
Fury isn't much of a puncher, and Audley certainly has better skills, though it is doubtful whether he can still pull the trigger or not - if he can, I can see him being able to hit often and hard enough to potentially stop.
I'd make it a pretty slim chance, but possibly intriguing.

Do you think Eddie would bite the hand that feeds him?

They're both trained by Peter Fury.

Thats why it will never happen as I said. But Chambers is going nowhere in the UK with no real backing.
