Apparently, his wife left him today and he's gone off the rails.

oh... that's no good

It'll stuff-up July 1 FOX show no end.
I wouldn't be surprised if the show is postponed.

Maybe he could fight McCracken instead.

Herbie Hide Nigeria/England
Enzo Maccarinelli Wales

Thabiso Mchunu S. Africa
Ovill McKenzie Jamaica
Emmanuel Nwodo Nigeria
Troy Ross Canada
Daniel Sackey Ghana
Dominic Vea Australia

This will definatley be postponed...no fighter will take this on with such short notice...dayuummm.. i ve got my tix ready and all...

bring on VEA vs Mccracken i say

Azzaoui will not be fighting Vea CONFIRMED.

NEW OPPONENT NOT YET CONFIRMED, HOWEVER THE 1ST JULY CARD WILL STILL GO AHEAD....

Moyoyo Mensah.... not far to fly and also Dominic should have a straight forward bout.....

well if thats the case, why wouldnt they go ahead with Mccracken...

wont have to fly at ALL

True..... Mensah would be seen as a safer bet.... :)

keen to see Willie Felipe vs Jason Williams go at it on the same card...

two big boppers the living daylights out of eachother..

time to see if Williams can put his money where his mouth is ;;-)

Dominic Vea now to face off against Oscar Siale of New Zealand!!!

I don't think I've actually ever seen Siale fight. Is he actually any good?

Neither have i to be honest...but his record does show 12 wins and a recent loss to mensah....I dont think Siale has the strike power to trouble Vea.

Guess well see come thursday....Vea by KO - 3RD

Can you buy tickets at the door?

Tickets available at the door......

See my post RE: Jason Williams.... What a joke

good news about the ticket, unfortunate new about Williams, that was gonna be interesting.

Siale is a tough SOB he doesnt carry any dynamite in his hands and wont trouble Vea but will come and put on a brave display thats for sure. Siale has been in some real tough fights of late against the like of powe puncher Vaitele Soi, Jameson Bostic, Moyoyo Mensah he may be in for a stoppage loss against Vea Im going with a TKO7 to Vea

You coming over for the fight mate?

I realise Azzouai pulled out but 39 year old Oscar Siale for a Commonwealth title match. Dear oh dear.

What's a promoter to do when someone pulls out so close to fight night? (Rhetorical)

It's just a damn shame.......

Yeah not many options and Oscar has taken two very sound beatings in his last two bouts- a serious beat down at the hands of Bostic and then Moyoyo (the latter was an ugly- slug fest for 12 rounds). Have a look at his record then you can work out for yourself how this fight will end. Anyhow....
