Take note Primetime - the Klitchsko vs Chambers undercard isn't inspiration. It would be great if you could get a deal to show this as part of the Klitchsko vs Chambers buildup.

If Primetime do not (as expected) show this - does anyone know if channel L'Équipe is available in the UK - via those funny satalite dishes?

good luck to jamie!! can't see him winning tho, but im sure he'll give his best

I dont think McDonnel has done enough to be on something like Primetime even m8, he's a very small name even in British Boxing circles.

Napa beat him in my opinion and the French lad will do a job on him, but I'll ask about for a stream m8

good look to jamie hopefully we get a stream

Good luck to him was over in France sparring hassan nadam for his fight on the bill very tasty fighter an from wot they told me this French lad is tasty to but hope he does it

Well I would rather see a EBU title fight than whats on the Klitchsko undercard. Its a long shot and I wasn't expecting or wanting them to show the McDonnel fight INSTEAD of the Klitchsko fight - just ADDITIONALLY to the card, on delay or something if its clashing for time.

come on jamie mac hope to god he wins this fight it will be 3 titles in 8week if he does (british,commonwealth and be european) no said that he would beat napa and he did convincing or not he still got crowned champ at the end of the fight dont write this kid off i know its a big step up but it wouldnt suprise me if he does the job again

Yes I give McDonnell a chance. He'll have to a score a stoppage/ win very convincingly to get the verdict but he's a young lad who is improving all the time. He will have learnt a lot from his fight with Napa and wouldn't shock me at all if he pulled out the win. Good luck Jamie!

Jamie knows he has a shot here - there is absolutely nothing to lose and Frank Maloney, Dennis Hobson need props for first getting the fight and also telling Jamie to take it - his titles are not at risk for having a pop - and I honestly think he has a chance if the judges play fair.

He has nothing to lose, his 0 has already gone and he'll be keeping the British and Commonwealth titles. I do think the French guy will be too quick for him though. You only have to compare their performances against Napa. Napa lost clearly and widely in one of these fights.

Admittedly, that might have just been a one off performance - but he was impressive against Napa and I think stylistically McDonnel doesn't pose isn't going to be too awkard as this guy is gangly also.

Think you're getting mixed up here Stu. Jerome Arnould never fought Napa, that was Malik Bouziane.

Have faith people, the titles coming back to these shores via tko

In all honesty I think he has a good chance and is 11/4 on will hill so its worth a punt

Sorry my mistake , got Arnould's fights with Codet and Siderenko on tape. The french obviously have a decent pool of Bantams.

Easier fight than Bouziane IMO - although Bouziane's record and performances before and since Napa (I've only seen Bouziane in the Napa fight) suggest that was more of a style's things.

I bloody hope he does it!!!

Anyone know where to get a stream for L'equipe?

not a chance chaps, sorry. the boys face was a mess against big hitting napa :P (also losing that fight) no way he can win this fight!!!!!

Just spoke to Dennis - Jamie is well chilled out looking forward to the fight - its on about 9.30pm our time - ringing Jamie or Dennis straight after the fight to get a reaction.

I really hope McDonnell can do it seems a good, dedicated pro and a nice guy. Good luck to him

Its a crying shame the lack of coverage this has had domestically. It would of been an affordable show for BBC or ITV to put on and would of got viewers, especially if they would of put a slot in looking at Froch or Haye's build up to there next fights!

jamie can do it!!!

any1 have a workin link to put up

check ur pm

rnd by rnd pls wen it starts????
