If it makes money, it won't matter.

No TV (as yet) and the tickets aren’t selling well at all.

Will be tough to cover the costs unless it’s being backed by someone.

It’s not this week.

I think it’s next week now but there’s been little about it so who knows. Boxxer were trying to get involved as a co-promotion which clearly didn’t happen.

Who said Boxxer were trying to get involved?

Someone I know works at Sky Sports as a cameraman. Does all the boxing and a few other sports. He was said he was provisionally booked for it.

They didn’t mention the fight but was in Newcastle on that date.

Big big fight this , just checked ticket master loads tickets available, madness there been no real promotion or advertising or tv slot yet

Matchrooms NextGen is outselling this one big time! Just shows the lack of promotion and backing is killing the show

Yeah. I’d have thought they’d have priced it reasonably low but no - would still be an expensive night out.

Just a show where all the main fights involve ex-MTK, then ex-Probellum boxers.

No TV money, not particularly well promoted.

Nothing to see here, move along, all in order...

Nothing to see except an excellent main event.

Davies and Ritson have posted next to nothing on there social media accounts about this ; is this definitely going ahead ?

Supposedly. Who knows though.

What's the crack with this then, anyone streaming it? I've heard next to nothing


Just realized its next week

No tv or stream
Fights are definitely going ahead
Tickets master /utilita website shows loads of empty seats

Didn’t even know this was happening.

Someone’s losing a fair wedge on this.

I'm sure if they can get small hall shows on Facebook and/or Youtube, they can sort this out.

Maybe they're looking for a deal.. lastminute.com

They might sort a YouTube channel to show it but they’re not going to pay much for the privilege. Venue hire, fighter and their teams expenses, promotion (venue hire of weigh in and press conference) plus fighter purses is hard one to cover with not many tickets sold.

A pity. Good scrap this!

What you reckon the purses will be for this main event ?
I imagine ritson and davies would have had some decent purses in the past on other platforms

this is a good matchup for sure, guys who id put at pretty much the exact same level, yet somehow im hardly excited for it

I’d imagine it should be something like £75k each. Who knows though. I’d have thought it would have been promoted properly, sold 6,000 tickets and been on TV too.

surely some TV channel picks this up.

Please...

Same here.
Could be a pretty decent, evenly matched fight, even if both men have flattered to deceive at times.
I am surprised it hasn't been promoted better and why havent any TV companies picked it up?

Such a waste.
