Has anyone got any information regarding any upcoming Glasgow promotion by Matchroom?

I have seen a few things mentioned by people on Twitter but not very much. I can only assume that Burns would be the main draw as usual and who else is likely to be on?

Charlie Flynn? Scotty Cardle?
Cardle has mentioned a few times his desire to become a familiar face in Glasgow. A lot of Scottish based fighters are now based with MGM i believe.

Also what kind of scale are we looking at here? The hydro might be a hard sell unless Eddie Hearn pulls off a good opponent for Burns.

What's the date for it?

Hearn has said that if he can make the right fight he will go back to Scotland with burns headlining but it has to b the right fight or it wudnt sell. He also said it was looking like to happen and cud b may time

Cornish vs. ???

Bergman?
Bakhtov?
Zumbano Love?
Sprott?

Realistically only Burns could be a big enough pull for any sort of arena up in Scotland and thats only in the right type of fight now.

He needs to put as many young Scottish lads as possible on the card and hope they impress.
Not sure how many more big fights Burns has left in him.
If matchroom are to start putting on regular shows in Scotland, then the next generation of will need to show that they can headline on their own sooner rather than later.

Would Burns - Campbell sell?

Burns vs. Mendy would be better...

surely he can't pull a world title shot for him ?

If Dundee lads win their eliminators you could well have Mike Towell v Sam egginton for the British and Ronnie Clark in an eliminator against Martin j ward, Ricky burns is the main draw but Charlie Flynn needs to be built up,

I think nearly any Burns fight could possibly sell based on the fact that there hasnt been a big scale show here for a while but its a big gamble to take incase it doesnt. Any sort of Scotland v England type of fight would likely sell too...

Id like to see Hearn put on some smaller shows in Scotland and make an effort at building fighters in Scotland.
