Is McCullough's fight with Martinez still happening? Dean Francis was supposed to be on the card but I heard he's off and Andy Lee was also announced but hes on in Dublin instead two weeks later. Plus the Duddy bill the following week looks pretty good so has Hobson already pulled the plug on the first one?

Dean Francis was going on the card???

Was he supposed to be up against Brian Magee?

I knew it was too good to be true. Two cards one after another always seemed a big ask.

Looks more solid to me than the other one. Eastman showed up for the press conference all the way from Guyana so thats a good start. Better undercard on that one too.

I see Andy Murray is fighting James Gorman for the Irish Light-welter belt on the Duddy card. What happened? Did OISIN FAGAN have to vacate it to fight Kimbrough? As far as I know- he's still the Irish champion at that weight.
