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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yep, but they will be and they'd be sacrificial lambs for KO's. Who would you want to see?

Dalton Smith maybe a good addition.
