Oct 9 London card cancelled!
Not surprisingly, the Sports Network show scheduled to take place at the ExCel Arena in London on October 9 to be headlined by Danny Williams has been cancelled. Due to Williams' forthcoming WBC heavyweight title opportunity against Vitali Klitschko in December he has had to withdraw. Sports Network will shortly announce details of the rescheduled show featuring the intended chief support at the Excel Arena - British and Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion Matt Skelton - plus a full supporting undercard. Tickets purchased for the ExCel Arena show can be exchanged for the new show or a full refund can be given if from your original point of purchase.

It used to be specific match-ups that were cancelled/swtiched , but now Sportsnetwork are going the whole hog and terminating an entire show!

As for Skelton, I don't care much for the circus, but look, he's a popular man in Bedford so why not find a suitable hall over that way for him to fill.

Keith Long won't have a problem going into someone else's backyard (ok, I know his track record for pulling out isn't pristine, but he is a tough and brave old soldier).
