nobody cares about any of these undercard fights outside of Quigg. I like Campbell, but it's too early to get excited about his fights.

I think Hearn said he would have to produce a barn stormer of an undercard to justify PPV. So far so poor. Lets see if Crolla-Foster can save it. To be honest I thought Foster had quit the game.

Easy night for Burns that, keeps Crolla on the end of the jab, right hand, left hook to the body, then upstairs with the left on the way to a stoppage, should be Beltran, Crawford or a unification next on February 8th.

I don't think it would be an easy fight for Burns but don't know if Crolla could win it. Crolla is improving steadily and he may be one of those fighters that mature late like Alan Minter. He's impatient to move up but I think he could do with a few fights more before fighting the like of Burns. If he did fight him he would have a thorough game plan and he would stick to it.

Personally I think he's a domestic level fighter.

I think he could be better than that but like I say maybe he's a late developer. He is improved since getting stopped by Mathews.

Annoys me the way they ignore the fact Mathews knocked him out and then drew with him. Imagine Mathews would be plenty pi$$ed if Crolla gets the Burns fight. Looking at Derry's schedule I would be amazed if he's still in contention come next Spring. Foster was faded already but no way looked prepared for a 12 rounder. Think Ricky would be too strong for Crolla. Think its defo Crawford or Beltran next for Ricky though and he's a serious underdog against both so could be for the British title if it ever happens.
I like Andy Lee but still looks too open and ultimately the fight tells us nothing.
After near disaster last time out Quigg was given a gimme and took it. Will be a huge step up for him when he does fight the big boys. :box:

On the whole a pretty pi$$ poor undercard to be honest! :-?
