Anyway, Saturday is a top top bill: Fury v Chisora, despite the first cancellation, is an excellent fight. Could go either way (I’d go for Fury by KO).
Saunders v Eubank Jnr will probably be fight of the year. I really don’t know what the outcome will be. Saunders experience should prevail but Eubank’s confidence is definitely playing on his opponent.
Gavin v Skeete is a proper 50/50. Walsh and Buglioni are excellent fighters. I’m also interested in seeing what Eddie Chambers does after his poor performance last time round and Romeo Romaeo (sp?).

Not sure I`d go as far as to call Buglioni excellent. He is game and is exciting fights but he is far from excellent for me.
Yeah I think he's limited personally. If he wasnt a ticket seller maybe he'd be a journeyman I dunno. No offence intended to journeyman by the way but I think people will know what i mean.

Fury Chisora is a very interesting fight. Chisora has fought at the higher level since they last met and seems to be much more dedicated this time round. Although he's got some miles on the clock. Fury has been inactive but has had a number of training camps and has to impress tomorrow if he is going anywhere fast. It's intriguing and should be a much better fight than last time. If the sky hype matching were behind it, it would be talked about a lot more than last weeks domestic dross.

Eubank Jr. v Bjs is an interesting fight too and will be close. No clear winner for me. Yes EJ is untested but BJS not shown that he's millions of miles above.

The saddest part of this card is that basically, as it stands, this is all of warrens names on one card and it probably won't get any better than this. Although if he secures the winner with Wlad that would be a big night for allegedly.

I'm looking forward to the card plenty of decent fights

Fury v Chisora - Good fight and both look to be in decent shape. Could go either way but I’m backing Fury by late KO

Saunders v Eubank Jnr - Great match up and about time we started getting some decent domestic fights instead of fighters avoiding each other. This one could go either way but I'm going for BJS on points

Gavin v Skeete - Decent fight. Would have to go with Gavin but I'm not not sure how Gavin will deal with the awkwardness and long reach of Skeete. Hoping it's not a usual Skeete bore-fest and is entertaining. Gavin points win

Walsh and Sykes should be a good tear up as well -

All in all I think that's a pretty good card - unlike that shower of shite last week which I'm glad I never paid for but watched on the big screen at the local.

I'm with you in thinking the main events will fall short of expectation. The difference between this weeks card and last weeks is that we get 2 genuinely interesting fights on paper, they may turn out to be duds in reality but we're excited by the "on paper" part which never happened with last weeks card.

Regarding the rest of the card the Walsh fight stands out as being a great one in the ring and on paper. Gavin Vs Skeete is one I'd rather miss however there are others on the undercard that do look interesting.
