Anyone know when any more fights are going to be announced for this. I have read lots of things about potentials, but it just appears bery slow in getting confirmed.

As things stand only 4 fights confirmed with Bellew & Brook still awaiting opponents. There have been rumours that Big Larry will be on the show, Billy Joe will be back but still nothing more has been said.

Although I am really looking forward to the event, it appears in no way as big as the Mag 7 bill which I also went to. I wouldn't be dissapointed unless Frank didn't say this will be even bigger.

Michael Clarke who got battered in the first round of The Contender?

[dondada]

Not looking good, is it?

[stevek3lly]

I am still looking forward to the night. Got good seats and still a couple of big fights to enjoy, just a let down with what Frank promised after Mag 7. If he hadn't have built this up so much, I don't think anyone would really queston it.

is this PPV ?

i want to watch the Smith V Degale fight... but i dont wanna pay £15 for this bill at the mo

With the Wlad-Chisora fight I think its going to PPV. Apart from the Smith-DeGale fight the rest of the card is pretty awful. Certainly not living up to the hype Frank was selling after the last Magnificent Seven.

Didn't know Brook was fighting Clarke, thats a bit of a shocker tbh.

Only Bellews opponent to be named now, and I gather its unlikely to be McIntosh.

Don't frigging well go or watch it if you all think it's that bad, bunch if whinging tossers. Don't know what side your bread is buttered.

has the Khan fight been confirmed for PPV on the same night? If he's on and everything is all-in for £15 then i reckon that's good value. Can't see how they could justify upping it anymore though

[Frankie Gavin]

Why don't people watch one big fight on a Maloney or hat ton show then because that's wat they get

Having told us all what he was going to do to Bellew recently, macintosh has turned that fight down and has signed to fight...wait for it...Hastings Rasani. Probably for about £50 and petrol money. What a turd

I'm still looking forward to going...the atmosphere is going to be brilliant for main event and like frankie alluded to it's a much better show than any other promoter could put on at the moment.

Let's see who Bomber fights...

Like I said earlier, this is still a top night of boxing and better than the usual nights offered. The only reason I questioned it is because Frank said it will be bigger than Mag 7 and at the moment it isn't. I would going either way and cannot wait.

When is Bomber gonna get an opponent announced?

The problem is Frankie, Frank W promised alot more than this when he announced the show so alot of fans brought tickets, who now feel let down with the card thats been announced. You even have to admit your self apart from the Smith/Degale contest, the rest are complete mismatches, and are a step backwards for the likes of Cleverly and Brook.

We do...... and it doesn't cost us 15 nicker

Maloney and Hatton don't promise multiple world title fights then serve up multiple domestic mismatches on PPV Frankie.

[wadey]

Michael Clarke is now saying he hasn't even signed to fight Brook, and he dosen't think the fight will happen.

Also Rob the ticket prices are not cheap!

I'm sure everyone on here does exactly that. However when being promised a huge night to blow the Mag 7 out of the water and being asked to pay £15, do you not think people legitimately expect more than:

Paul Smith v James DeGale
Kell Brook v Michael Clark
Nathan Cleverly v Alejandro Lakatos
Matthew Macklin v Ruben Varon
Tony Bellew v TBA
and then you v Dean Harrison

Sure, its a decent bill and the potential addition of big larry v mcdermott makes for another decent fight but apart from Smith-DeGale none of the fights are really exciting. If you throw in Chisora-Wlad and Khan-Maidana then yes its probably not bad value for a ppv (compared to what we have been offered up before) but this card on its own is not that great.

Plus charge £15 for the injustice.

To be honest I'm absolutely amazed at some of the comments on this thread. Admittedly I can't speak on behalf of those who have paid for tickets to go to the echo arena.

BUT in terms of those of us paying our £15 PPV IF the Liverpool show, Khan and Chisora are all included (yet to be confirmed) then I think it's an absolutely fantastic card and well worth the £15.

Lets look at the fights:

Smith-Degale- This fight has huge interest just look at the posts on this forum about it (admittedly extra interest because Smigga posts on here)

Bomber- I think everybodys interested in seeing his next fight after the disappointment against Ajisafe. Can he bounce back etc.

Cleverly- I'm sure we all agree this guy is destined for huge things so it's another chance to see him in action (albeit potentially a step back)

Warmachine- if he does get confirmed on against Jon Mcdermott this will be a great fight in his development.ted

Brook- I am (like many others I'm sure) disappointed with the level of opposition (if he is fighting Clarke) but good to see them in action nonetheless

A chance to see how our prospects are coming along, Frankie etc.

Chisora- Although a huge underdog this is an exciting period for British heavyweights and how great it is to see him fighting for a world title against the best in the division.

Khan- Everybody has been saying for months how he's been avoiding any big hitter after Prescott- this should be an 'edge of your seat' fight as even if Khan is dominating the rounds he could be put down at any time.

So in summary, if all this is included in the PPV card I honestly think it will be an absolutely fantastic night of boxing and well worth the £15 (compare it so some shows we've paid this for in the past!)

I'm interested to hear peoples thoughts.

[johan88]

I completely agree UpperCrust, there is just no pleasing some people!

[Dioufy]

If Khan, Chisorsa and the Warren card all get shown for 15 notes then that's awesome, but don't be so naive.
