Running order for SKY show 6.7.07 at Robin Park Arena - Wigan

7.30 Tony Dodson v Nick Okoh
7.50 Stuart McFadyen v Tazif Khan
8.10 Craig Watson v Michael Lomax
8.45 Mark Thompson v Vincent Vuma - WBC International Light-Middleweight title
9.35 Brett Flournoy v Yassine Elmachre

FLOATER- Scott Mitchell v Dave Ingleby

10.05 Jason Booth v Ian Napa - British Bantamweight title
11.00 Ali Nuumembee v Vladimir Borosky
11.25 Alex Matvienko v Martin Marshall


Due to the withdrawal of Jamie Moore and Wigan ticket seller Sean Crompton there will be tickets available to purchase at the venue on the night . Priced at £35.00 general and £70.00 ringside they represent good value for money on what is a quality 9 fight bill.

Watson and Lomax will prob be fight of the night, hope sky show that one in full. Watson needs to show more of a work ethic than he has done previously though, has looked a little tentative in his last few outings.

For info;

Vuma weighted in just under 11st.

Thompson weighted in at 10st 12.5.... eating a banana!!! Wish I'd a got a photo of that one

Going to be a cracking fight.

As mentioned - there are still tickets available on the night - so get yourself down there!!! It's goin' to be a cracker.

So I assume Sky will show the Napa vs Booth, and Nuumbembe fights live and then maybe the Thompson fight on delayed?

I imagine so. Coverage starts at 22:00 on TV - so the Booth fight will be live on TV. The Thompson fight might then be shown - or as you say;, they might do Ali and then show Thompson later on.....

they better show thompson fight

ali is a boring fighter

I wouldn't agree with that to be honest. Ali always entertains; and I am sure tomorrow will be no different.

The Thompson fight is a must for TV though......

Will be interested to see how Dodson gets on too. I believe he is being trainined by former WBU champ Shea Neary (The Shamrock express). Looking forward to that one too.....

If you can get down to Wigan pop along - you won't miss any of it then.

i cant afford it, skint at mo

plus i went to pie land last week watching matko and co

Pie Land.... I like that!!!

It was a good show wasn't it.... Sure tomorrow will be as exciting. Said it for a while that Mark is going places; lets hope tomorrow is the start of it.

I cannot understand why don't VIP and other small promoters get a home recording done of their non TV shows and put them on Ebay at a 5 a disc.

Very little overheads, exposure for their fighter - everyones a winner.

Ive seen channel M recording some of their fights, notably the Gomez thorpe show. Perhaps some of the fights might crop up there sometime.

THE FIGHT TO LOOK FORWARD ARE MARK TOMPSON, ALEX MATVIENKO,STUART McFADYEN & CRAIG WATSON.

which fights of ali's have been boring?not many i would say,he is an honest extremely fit fighter with fast hands and great work rate,a basic style maybe but certainly not boring.

Any chance of some charitable types doing a simple round by round of the bouts for us poor, vagrant folk who don't own a satellite dish?

***********SPOILER****************













































According to the results page Mark Thompson's step up in class was in vain as Vuma stopped him in 8 rounds.

HIBBO ALIS NOT THE SAME BOXER WITH SPEED & POWER HES JUST A FIGHTER WITH FITNESS AND STRONG. AND YES HES NOT BORING ALIS A GOOD PERSON

i never doubted him as a person

he is a nice bloke, i was with him at the last wigan show

i just dont particularly like his style of boxing, just like people say with witter, ali just dont do it for me

what r the results for ali & matko anyway

What a fight. Thompson nearly had him. British fight of the year? Certainly a contender.

I thought the atmosphere was a little low for the Napa fight.... I suspected that it didn't go to plan. However, apart from an undefeated record he lost nothing else... only gained.

How about Conception next for Thompson.... Mark would probably win, but great fight while it lasts.

thompson is a welter so i think ali numbee could be made fairly easily, same manager and a local derby

Very good fight and a brave effort from Thompson. Wish more fighters would put their undefeated record on the line like he did. Hopefully, he's gained from the step up in class and will continue to progress.

WOODS WOULD NOT HAVE THAT FIGHT ALI V MARK BUT IF IT CAME OF WHAT A FIGHT THAT WOULD BE FOR SKY SPORTS. ALI WON ON POINTS

what about matvienko

Was there any reason why Ray and Matthew Hatton were there. Were they looking at Nuumbembe, or even possibly the Thompson vs Vuma winner.
