Well, the Vassell V Purdy fight looks like a decent match up - and as always with two British fighters, both can be expected to give it their all.

I'm not as sure about the Watson V Lusambya fight, - the "their man v African" route.

The undercard contains nothing that appeals to me.

To be honest, I was a touch surprised that this was a Hatton promotions show. Looking at it, I would have thought it more like a Barry Hearn card.

people have pulled out though. i hope watson wins.

Who's pulled out??

Purdy vs Vassell could be a cracker

last week matchroom card was quality. Also sykes v Morris was matchroom that was a very good fight. Hatton bills have had poor main fights. If this was a warren bill everyone be moaning instead it's fatman bill no one has a go at it!

I think Vassell should target Purdy's body in this one.

im not vassels biggest fan. hope purdy wins here

Yeah- just personal opinion, not criticism.

Vassell fight is excellent so far.

Vassell has won alot of fans tonight win or lose

Contrary to Sky's commentary*, I'd say Vassel has this comfortably.

*edit- actualy, just seen the scroecard. So I agree with Sky

I had Vassell winning by 5 rounds!

Credit to Purdy, i thought them body shots were going to take him out by about the 10th!

Cracking fight. new found respect for Denton!!

absolutely brilliant,from both.Vassell ud

What a fantastic fight. 2 warriors. Loads of hurtful body punches. These two shame most 'world' title fights......

Vasell scored more, but Purdy does not deserve to lose anything....

what a belter! really enjoyed that. Great the way they were after the fight and in the interview too.

The friday fight night I didn't really care about turned out to be a cracker. What an idiot I am

Top fight that. Would happily watch them two go at it again. Dunno how Purdy managed to take them body shots all night though, they looked well spiteful.

The Watson fight a joke! What a load of shit!

Well done Craig. Top bloke!

Yet again, a weak/disappointing African opponent for a Commonwealth Title.

Sure, good win for Watson, but even so...

Hennessy Sports fighters involved - as well as a very good top of the bill.

Not a heavyweight is it?

Matchroom seem to be getting more interested in boxing again.

+1. Got in late and watched the Vassell - Purdy fight on sky plus.


The Watson fight does nothing though to reassure me about the current state of the commonwealth title.


Ellis should really call it a day too.
