Nick Blackwell vs Chris Eubank Jr has just been announced by Hennessy Sports for March 26th. Great British title fight in my view which has the makings of being an all out war.
Hughie Fury also to on the bill against TBC.

Venue announced as well?

Any idea on ticket prices ? Couldnt see anything on the website.

Will go to this if i can.

i still have my doubts this will happen.

Good fight , big statement if Eubank does a job on Nick , only Murray has and that was very early on when Murray must of been 20 odd and 0 , won a few quid backing him to stop Ryder and when you look at his record he's fought some tough lads Murray, Saunders, Ryder, Komitsky and Bursak on foreign soil now Eubank fair play to him!

Great fight, glad it's finalised. Both very good prospects, Blackwell rapidly improving but think Eubank will have too much for him. Interesting to see if he's got the power to stop him.

Lenny Daws Ruben Nieto rematch for the euro belt would be good on the undercard. Any news if it'll be on channel 5?

My thoughts are exactly this. Nick has come on a bundle with Gary Locket who is a great trainer in my view so can never count him out any point in the fight.

Blackwell beats Eubank Jr .......The question is who will be smart enough to back him at 4/1 !

I'll stick a little bit on Blackwell. Like the poster further up I managed to make a bit off of Blackwell beating John Ryder.

you cynic

Peter Fury moaning about Fedosov ducking Hughie now. Can't wait to see what tomato can they spring up while saying all the real heavyweights are running

I can't wait for this one, I think Blackwell has a chance....pushed I'd go for a Eubank win but Blackwell is definitely in with a chance...

Great fight and hats off to both

Wasn't it originally announced as the 5th March, at Bluewater?

We even had it up on this site for a while.

It was, as thought due to being just down the road from me I'd make my first visit to Bluewater and more importantly that boxing Colosseum Glow!

I still really like this fight, so depending on who they get for Hughie and the pricing I may well head over to Wembley.

Brilliant fight and credit to both.

I've got Eubank by UD but Blackwell is definitely in with a shout.
