This Saturday night at the Italian Club, North Perth WA.
Pro/am card, 4 amateur bouts to kick off followed by five pro bouts.
Amateur fighters include Justin Ashcroft, Jordan Samardali, Paul Morrison & Luke Sharp.
Pros;
Robbie Bryant vs TBA 10 rounds
Dave Letizia vs Moses Ioelu 6 rounds
Paul Fleming vs Manu Emery 6 rounds
Matt Garlett vs Flash Villacura 4 rounds
Albert Howell vs Micheal Hatwell 4 rounds
Clint Hosking was scheduled to fight but has since retired due to a knee injury.
Good chance for WA fight fans to see some live action, Paul Fleming is over from NSW to fight and has huge wraps and also in attendance will be Garth Wood, winner of the Contender Australia tv series. I'll be wearing my journalists cap for the evening so will try and corner Garth for an interview.
Hope to see you all there.

I heard rumours that Jeremy and Mike pulled out, if so who are the replacements?

Well considering Bryants listed as fighting TBA I can't really give you any extra credit there. heard a whispers about Hatwell but cant say for sure.

Great to see that Robbie is back in action again, though he really shouldn't be seven months in between fights at this stage of his career, he's 31 and needs to be getting a move-on if he wants to get somewhere. Still, I'm glad to see he is scheduled for 10 rounds as he has never gone more than 6 before, it will be interesting!
Any news about Andy Green? Is he still recovering from that shoulder re-construction?
Overall - great to see another fight night in Perth - it's been far too long!

I've noticed than Bryant is now fighting Dion McNabney, who has a 5(2)-14(8) record and has lost to every decent opponent he has faced.
This is really disappointing, because Bryant-Allan would have been really interesting. Jeremy would be the bigger man, but Robbie would have the advantages in handspeed and boxing ability - at middleweight I'd tip Robbie to have beaten Jeremy by a clear decision over 10 rounds.

McNabney is a short notice replacement, but even so a waste of airfare.

I'm gonna say Bryant KO4, surely he won't want a quick finish after a 7 month layoff?
Let's hope he's fighting again in less than 3 months this time!

Glad I didn't go to see it! Bryant KO1 McNabney.
Let's hope Bryant-Allan happens soon, if not Bryant fighting someone over east - I'd like to see him against any Australian light-middleweight, except perhaps King Davidson.
