Blackledge v Cameron - Commonwealth title

Hi fellas, a quick heads-up that Luke Blackledge's Commonwealth super-middleweight title fight against Liam Cameron this Saturday can be watched live and completely free on vipboxing.tv

It should be a good fight to watch with a nice clash of styles. On paper it looks a 50-50 but we're hoping that Luke, fighting close to home, can edge a close fight.

Also on the bill is Tyson Fury's pal Isaac Lowe who takes on Lee Glover for the English featherweight title. Isaac is predicting a stoppage victory and this one should also be another good fight to watch.

If you've not tuned in before, we've got Simon Clayton on commentary duties too who's always worth a listen!

This show would not look would not look out of place on Sky TV, a 50/50 genuine title fight backed up with an English title fight, great stuff from VIP and so refreshing to see such a competitive title fight for a change.

I agree with you that it looks a great show but if Eddie put that on,there would be out with the pitchforks down the Sugar Hut or whatever its called

Looking forward to this one, real pick-em fight. I'm slightly leaning towards Blackledge who i feel can come from behind to edge a close on on points. A bet on a draw wouldn't be bad call.
Undercard looks a busy night for TBA so far

It wouldn't have looked out of place under the old Friday Night Fight system, if Hearn put it on now it would be a shocker, but the whole idea of going to one promoter with less overall shows was quality over quantity.

For me Liam blows hot & coldplus not sure about the big jump in weight. So I go for Blackledge to win.

Top 2 fights are pretty good but I think that people are getting carried away when they say they should be on Sky.

Is the show on Sky the same night better ?

I don't think so personally.

Good point the thing is Hearn should be putting on big shows in arenas problem is barely any competitive fights and go on for ages. The May 30th one so far is quality but I am fearing this will cost us PPV .......

The old FFN system went straight to the title fight at 9:30 10pm and shown highlights or undercard after. Shame we can't have both.

I agree. But that is because MisMatchroom are getting away with murder. Sky should be forcing them to improve the quality of this bill.

As expected this was a very Competitive fight throughout and went the distance.
Blackledge won by UD and is the new commonwealth champion.

Excellent night out at king George's hall in Blackburn with other well matched fights.

Nice to see Tyson Fury in attendance and finding plenty of time for the fight fans - chatting posing for snaps etc.

Well done Steve and the vip team.

Well done to Steve a Wood keeping small hall shows on the map aswell as taking a huge gamble with this Boxer vs fighter match up that was so evenly matched both being rated as high as each other in super middleweights top 10. Great fight both leaving it all in the ring at Blackburn.

Wat happened to glover v lowe fight

Lowe won on points against jamie quinn for I think some maters title ?
Quinn was a very late replacement as I'm told glover failed to make the weight and pulled out very late on .
Credit to quinn and he looked far better than his record suggests.

I missed this fight but did wanna see it, Quinn was a good schoolboy amateur a longtime ago but drifted away, sure he boxed likes of shane singleton etc.
He boxed Zelfa Barrett twice now who is a very good prospect and heard he made it competitive, he definitely always there to make it conpetitive

I watched the whole show online and have to give credit where it's due, it was a really good show and the coverage was excellent. The commentator did a fantastic job too, if progression in boxing commentary is linked to merit that guy should end up at the top. Looking forward to the next one :TU:

How Steve wood can't get a TV deal is crazy he the busiest promoter in country can't be long now till something comes up.
Simon Clayton does do good commentary makes it humorous
