Here's hoping all those matches come off, looks like a good season coming up

McDermott Vs Barker, Rhodes Vs Small and Muttley Vs O'Donnell will all be blinders if they come off.

I can't say I'm happy to see Romanov back on the Euro scene sniffing round Thaxtons belt, but glad to see that there's been some progression in getting Jamie Moore his overdue shot at the Eurio title (Vs Piccirillo). It looks a slighlty easier challenge than the Ukranian, but in saying that it's only the top boys that beat Piccirillo. Good match-up

Romanov would beat Jono again, dont why Yuri want to fight him again.

If more than 1/3rd of them happen I will be amazed.

Come on Muttley - step up this time.

Yes but surely his worth a world title shot by now.

I hope Rhodes gives Small a hiding.

I think that's why he vacated in the first place, but it looks as though somat has gone tits up for Yuri along the way

McDermott vs. Barker would be amazing viewing for me - I soooo hope it happens.

Just because the EBU have nominated the fight, doesn't mean Romanov wants it. He will just pull out.

When is Mitchell going to get a mandatory? I know he is injured, but surely they can announce who he has to fight when he is well.

Carl Johanneson vs Gary Sykes was announced as an eliminator for his title last month, but there has been no news on when or if that fight is going to take place.

Why is Macarinelli lined up to fight Rob Norton for the British title? I thought he was fighting Jonathan Banks for the WBO title on Dec 6th?

If he loses against Banks, then fighting for the British title is not a bad option.

It is probably because the Board haven't officially been notified of that fight. In that case, they have the pick the best 'available' contenders.

The European light-heavy surprises me
you'd have thought Woods' management would have moved heaven and earth to get this on in Sheffield like they usually do
Woods has said that's it if he loses
