Not sure where people are getting "Fight of the year" from. Murray has an awful style for TV and Rosado is a jouneyman. Not disrespecting Journeymen btw
Paul Smith will be on this at about 11am, in front around 5 people and he'll love it! It'll be his world championship.
Rocky Fielding has only just stopped celebrating his loss to Callum Smith so good luck with getting much out of him, hope Ryder chins him.

I'll probably watch the BN/BT card next Sat and catch up with this the following day.

Smith brothers are not listed for this card.
Won't be surprised to see Paul and Stephen added at two days notice against very respectable opponents in preparation for much deserved world title fights.

I don't think this main event will deliver at all.
The undercard might do but I am away next weekend so I'll catch up on any good fights in the middle of next week.

Both guys at a similar stage of their career, big last chance for Murray especially to get a last title shot, Rosado will always get oppurtunities he's been in with some top fighters, maybe even more than Murray, I expect this fight to be competitive and although both guys are slipping I think it will still make for a good fight albeit a bit less quality on show than if it happened 2 years ago
Murray for me looks to be finished, he has about enough left to hang in their with the top guys but not enough to beat them, Groves and Lawal both visably hurt him in his last 2 fights and if he keeps fighting I reckon its only a mater of time before he's stopped again
Rosado is another whos been around the block, been in with some great guys over the years and looks to be about as done as Murray, I think this will go the distance as neither guy are punchers despite being strong, could see Murray taking it on the cards but Rosado getting stiffed

Fielding vs Ryder is good. Apart from that I have very little interest in the card.

I like this fight. They are meeting at the right moment in their carriers. Both need to prove their relevance in the sport and I like to see what each man has left in them.
Cant decide on a winner. My instinct tells me Rosado can outbox Murray if he is smart about it.

Don't mind this as a Saturday filler. Not every night is gonna be world class, much like every "Super Sunday" isn't particularly "Super". It's fine. Better than whatever else is on for the casual.
The BT card looks more interesting though.

I actually think this card is Hearn's best of the year, to date, I'm not fussed about the main event but I like the Ryder Fielding and Farrell Carus fights. There's a couple of decent little fights too in Mulcahy Keates and Economides Evans.
The Leicester card, for me, is far superior. There's some talent on it and Frank has gone old school, with Area, English, British, interim world-title and final eliminator.

Carus with a clear case of extreme acne all over his body. I wonder if he will use the 'I have a debilitating skin condition' excuse that's used elsewhere in British boxing as an attempt to cover up a clear side effect of roid use.
