Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
I think Eddie will up the level of his guys, he can't take another humiliating loss like last time can he? Who do we want to see in the rematch?
Zhang vs Joshua
Parker vs Hrgovic
Chisora vs Wilder
Adeleye vs Fisher
Dubois vs Wilder
Chamberlain vs Cruz
Smith vs Yarde

Re: Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
idea of promoters being the stars of a card is still a bit funny (eddie must love it), but hey the last one had some excellent match ups on paper at least, so lets do it again

Re: Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
I do wonder what the PPV buys were the first 5v5. They’re great for the hardcore fan like most of us who were buzzing to see fights like Ball vs Ford but those kind of fights aren’t going to get the casual audience to spend £20 on. It was a great show but I’d be surprised if they did 150k buys globally.margaret thatcher wrote: ↑08 Aug 2024, 14:23 idea of promoters being the stars of a card is still a bit funny (eddie must love it), but hey the last one had some excellent match ups on paper at least, so lets do it again

The last one was a brilliant night.
Who cares about the points when the individual fights were mostly awesome.

Was just chucking a few names out of guys they have in the same division off the top of my head. I reckon zero of those happen
Re: Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
Can't see this one being as good and this "promoters are the stars" is a bit annoying - especially when fighters sign one fight deals (e.g. Wilder).
Maybe we are ready for another promoter to join the mix - maybe Boxxer vs Matchroom for the "winning stable" to fight the champion stable "queensbury".

I wouldn't mind that if it meant we got to see something like Parker vs Kabayel for an example.stujones wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 06:54 Can't see this one being as good and this "promoters are the stars" is a bit annoying - especially when fighters sign one fight deals (e.g. Wilder).

I'm not too bothered about which promoter wins as along as we can get some high level and competitive fights which we go on the original card.
Re: Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
Agree - but this "promoter vs promoter" thing is a bit daft. Lets be honest, the depth Eddie has vs allegedly - there is little doubt really about who the best promoter is.joshj909 wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 06:56I wouldn't mind that if it meant we got to see something like Parker vs Kabayel for an example.stujones wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 06:54 Can't see this one being as good and this "promoters are the stars" is a bit annoying - especially when fighters sign one fight deals (e.g. Wilder).

Maybe they are doing the promoters thing to add spice but the only important thing is the quality of the fights

Andy Cruz would absolutely obliterate Chamberlain. It's not even fair.joshj909 wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 06:54Andykeithmoonhangover wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 04:58Which Cruz are we talking about?joshj909 wrote: ↑08 Aug 2024, 11:22

Re: Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
He 100% would but he would be the best test of his career so far. It's the type of fight that Hearn should be looking for to get a guaranteed win while taking out one of Frank's unbeaten guys.keithmoonhangover wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 11:57Andy Cruz would absolutely obliterate Chamberlain.

Lots of old boys there, some that shouldn't be anywhere near a ring again .joshj909 wrote: ↑08 Aug 2024, 11:22

Re: Queensbury vs Matchroom 2 (5v5)
There is a couple of good match ups in there that I like the look of David Adeleye v Johnny Fisher as you have two young fighters in there, one trying to get back in contention for British and Commonwealth honours in Adeleye after losing to Fabio Wardley, plus Callum Smith v Anthony Yarde as they are the two leaders at 175lbs in the Brit Pack as it were.joshj909 wrote: ↑08 Aug 2024, 11:22

Yep, but they will be and they'd be sacrificial lambs for KO's. Who would you want to see?rd350lc wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 13:08Lots of old boys there, some that shouldn't be anywhere near a ring again .joshj909 wrote: ↑08 Aug 2024, 11:22

Needs liam Davis on there

Dalton Smith maybe a good addition.joshj909 wrote: ↑09 Aug 2024, 13:23Yep, but they will be and they'd be sacrificial lambs for KO's.
