I thought the problem was with the commonwealth welterweight fight, I didn't think the Woolcombe/McDonagh fight was off as well. What's the evidence/source for that?
In any event hopefully Cello Renda is still on the bill. Could watch him all day long

Apparently not!

From that, can I assume that Cello is no longer fighting?
Is it right that the McDonagh/Woolcombe fight has fallen through?

Shame for him. Saw him at the Webb fight and he seemed really up for it (didn't even talk about fishing - just boxing - most unlike him)

So why isn't McDonagh fighting this South African?
Its rediculous that a guy supposedly moving down to Light Welter is going to fighting for a title at 11 stone.
McDonagh was hardly worthy, but every bit as worthy as Watson....
Not Watson's fault, but its a bad move by team Hatton. Watson will be getting worthy title fights soon enough at Welter / Light Welter - this has ruined a big (final) chance for McDonagh.

What is the point of him fighting for this title if he plans to move down to Light Welterweight?

If Watson doesn't plan on defending the Commonwealth title if he wins it, then I hope he loses.
