It will do well because Turki wants it. When have you last heard Eddie / Frank talk about a card / bill that doesn't either involves Turki or some massive streaming service backers (like Netflix).

This is all Eddie / Frank will talk about after February 22nd. Two months of daily hype on the social media channels.

I think Frank talks about Del v Wallin. He said its sold over 11,500 tickets so far.

Cor you must really hate him . I’m not really bothered about Eubank if I’m honest. He’s fought a lot better opposition than Benn and has actually got to where he’s at by himself and not just his last name. The same cannot be said about Benn

I wouldn't even bother with a dodgy stream for this one, couldn't care less about it. Two average fighters and it's PPV?

let’s see.

Who knows. We might get a good undercard

Shalom and Hearns looking like two spare bricks at a wedding.

Turki taking over everything and loves making Hearns his runner boy

Hearns must be seething inside. How long can he play this emasculated role?

Turki is only going to be interested in the promoters who can bring him high profile fighters. That means the promoters need to build some names and keep ahold of them. That is something I think Hearn has been slacking on in the UK over the past few years. If it gets to the point when Hearn doesn't have any fresh names for Turki then he will no longer need him.

I think Hearn has one foot out of the door, he can handle being subservient for another year or two if he's making millions off El Turki

Haha! Also the fact that Turki is the first to announce any fight.

And all fights are uploaded on his own Youtube channel.

Can anyone remember why or when all these threats and hatred for each other started?

So this card won’t be Riyadh Season?

It’s gonna be The Ring Magazine. Which means Turki’s putting his own money into it?

Interesting.

Very interesting.

Riyadh Season probably didn’t want any more cards outside of Saudi.

This fight is a bit of risk, I hope for boxing's sake it all works out and makes a profit.

It’s a pissyake as a PPV

Looks and sounds like retirement fights , Well has much has i dislike Benn , i will say good on him , if a average boxer can use what he's got in abudance , arrogance , big head , well known daddy , to make a fortune out of the sport , i suppose good on him , theres lots who have taken tremendous punishment and made fook all ,

But with saying good on him in one breath , i sort of think he'll end up broke and blaming everyone else for it in another , he has'nt got a long pugulistic future , and is too arrogant to do anything else , and i think being the flash little git he is , he'll blow his money

Any info when tickets go on sale?

TBH there isnt much in it
Jr is basically a mouthpiece who doesnt really believe in himself at any kind of top level - he could have fought Callum Smith at 168 for his belts if he was serious ...
but he ends up in fights with smaller guys / older guys who he feels he can push around and look good against .
A bit like the so called hard man in any town who will bully others until someone bigger and harder turns up and he doesnt want any of it .

Benn is another mouthpiece who hasnt really fought anyone decent - also has well picked fights and of course he likes a bit of medical help along the way - whats not to like

Junior fought BJS and Groves, he was very much the underdog against BJS and naturally a smaller man than George

I'll deffo go to this fight. I just want it to be the right outcome and Benn go back under his rock.

I cannot see Benn beating Jr. I'll happily pay £100 towards his retirement fund.
