If everything had gone to plan there would have been 5/6 shows by the end of April, depending on whether the Corcoran-Butler show was live or not, which isn't bad for the first few months of the year, if that's followed up over the rest of the year then that's 15-20 live domestic shows. Shooting in Dublin cancelled one which was a freak occurrence, never happened before in the UK or Ireland and I doubt it ever will again. Then Williams-Mansouri went after Mansouri did his achilles and Blackwell being put into a coma after the fight last weekend so we've ended up with 3, which isn't enough but there's not a lot they could have done about the two shows they've lost.

Warren was on the Bunce hour earlier saying that he's expecting Flanagan to be back out early summer and hoping to announce it at some time in the next week or so, Liam Smith has been ordered to fight Austin Trout by the WBO, if Trout fights Charlo then Soro looks to be next in line, he's working on a fight for Liam Walsh that he's also hoping to announce in the next week, possibly Berchelt with the way he mentioned it as a good fight for Walsh a couple of minutes later. So it looks like they should pick up with the domestic shows over the next few months.
Has Soro sorted out his contract disputes yet?

Such a great talent but this dispute has made him inactive at a vital time in his career.

You have to say that these days the odds are no better than 50/50 on any given domestic show actually happening. Arguably the only thing worse than the sanders/bursak fight falling through is it not falling through. Contender for most pointless 'world' title fight of the year.
Shocker, didn't see that coming. Glad to see the show goes on, although there'll be more boxers than boxing fans in the copper box come fight night.
