Is it true that Neil Sinclair is making his return to the ring on the Graham Earl vs Steve Murray bill?

I heard that as well a few weeks ago, didn't hear anything else since though.

he is definately in training.

I heard he'll be on the PPV bill in October? Is that right?

According to the enthusiastic but somewhat unreliable Belfast Telegraph, Sinclair returns from 15 months' inactivity in an eight-rounder on the Matt Skelton bill at York Hall on July 30.
Sinclair's trainer John Breen admitted in the newspaper it was not easy to convince allegedly to give Sinclair another opportunity.
"It was tough because Frank wasn't convinced that Neil really wanted to fight again but I have assured him that he has the hunger and he does.
"I'm just delighted that he is getting this comeback fight in the York Hall and it's on a big Sky television night because the show is part of the pay-per-view event which has Tyson fighting Danny Williams in the United States.
"Neil has been out for a while but I know that once he gets rid of the ring rust he will go on and show that he's still the best welterweight in Britain and a world class fighter.
"He has always had the power to trouble anybody in the world and all he needs is the opportunity - and he has to show the dedication which I believe he will.
"He was a disillusioned for a while but now he has the desire back. He's determined to campaign at welterweight and there is nobody for him to fear in Britain or Europe."

If he does return to the ring then thats good news for the british welterweight scene, because apart from james and jawid its pretty stale. If he does return and recapture form then i have no doubt that he capture a real world title.

Any other views?

I'm hoping to make this card - then back home for the red-eye special Tyson bout.

Any guesses on the time lag from Louisville and when we can expect Tyson to be on? 3am, 4am etc?

All I know is, the pay-per-view kicks off at 11pm.
