Damn that's a late drop out, glad I hadn't got tickets yet, no chance of a even half decent placement
ITV4 goes out with a wimper

can't actually believe this. barker shouldn't wait to fight elcock again he should fight a good world level fighter. was really looking forward to this scrap. barker is getting a bit too inactive for my liking

The plot thickens do we read anything into the fact Buncey has Hennessy and El Maachi on the show tonight, firstly can he fight for the British Title as he is from Morocco, I believe, secondly have the board sanctioned it.

Interesting times, cannot believe they will want the bill called off and El Maachi is as game as they come and would make it interesting and has a punchers chance I guess (I know he is a light middle) but he can bang a bit.

This is EXACTLY why a strong undercard is needed on shows.

I thought of that but I don't think it is funny how no one has confirmed either way on or off.

You have to assume it is off now I guess

For real?

the guy who recently lost an English title challenge (by a knockdown) ie had he not gone down, it would have been at least a draw.

Full respect to him, of course... but will this be for the British title?

He had a hard fight only two weeks ago. This should only be for commonwealth not British!
