any one think this is gonna do really poor number ?
i know eddie is expecting 15000 but i would be really shocked if they get half that, luke campbell 6 rounder (which he will probally beat in one round) brook v jones (over in 4 rounds max) only interesting one will be coyle v matthews and even then its not a fight im overly looking forward too and rest of card will be made up of matchroom fighters who will be fighting journey men to not effect there record
does luke campbell have that much ticket power that people will pay to watch him win in one round ?

It will do well. It will easily outsell the McDonnell fight at the weekend. Coyle himself has been a great ticket seller and he has nowhere near the profile of Campbell. I don't mean to sound negative towards the people of Hull, but this will be a big thing there. They are in a strange geographic location for a big city and get a terrible press, there is little to do there(sorry!). I also don't think Campbell will win in one round. The lighter weights journeymen tend to get banged out less than the heavier lads.

Being from Hull I feel qualified to comment on this...yes it will be a big deal but I doubt it'll get anywhere near 15,000. A lot of my pals aren't going because it's at the home of Hull KR and they're Hull FC fans. (Yes, rugby league means that much in Hull).
Luke is definitely a star in Hull and Tommy Coyle has got a decent exposure but I do fear that Eddie won't get the numbers he thinks he will.
I'll be going...!
