Great from Campbell what a demolition. I am convinced he will be world champ also. Good punch by Coyle but Katsidis made it easy for him no defence what so ever and just walking forward swinging aimlessly. Was more impressed with Campbell. Will be good fight between the 2, can only see Campbell breaking Coyle down after 6-7 rounds. Also chuffed for Jamie McDonnell.

Yeah McDonnell done well, I think Campbell should beat Coyle too I am going to that bad boy will be a mega night few lads have already said they wanna go too now we know the date. Will just have to wait and see what the prices are.
 
Very good performance from Campbell, and judging on that performance if a fight with Tommy Coyle happens there is only one winner for me

Coyle defeated a name and nothing more, Katsidis was long over the hill and nowhere near the same fighter he was. It was some punch though!

Yeah got to agree, will be interesting to see what respective paths both take from here before they get it on, Coyle will want to keep fighting opponents of a certain level and Campbell needs harder fights too. But on the other hand if one gets a defeat I'm not sure if that fight will happen will be interesting to see what Hearn does with them both from here wouldn't be surprised to see Campbell fight on the Bellew/Clev undercard if it happens hopefully won't be against another journeyman.

Also on the topic of the Clev/Bellew fight card what a lineup it is shaping up to be, the fight itself will be mega think I see Bellew winning Clev don't look the same since he was beaten whereas Bellew has settled right in at the weight and fought decent fighters, also after ringside I don't think we have seen the end of the Degale/gGroves feud that could be a potential British super fight possibly even a unification if somehow groves manages to beat dirrell (big ask I know) and Froch retires or vacates the IBF and Degale wins that belt. Think you might see them call each other out on the night.
 
Murray - Golovkin hopefully will be some fight!

For me Murray should be an undefeated world champion with both losses against Sturm and Martinez hugely controversial. If Murray can be near that level again it should be a competitive fight
 
Quite excited for Saturday night decent card and Cleverly/Bellew should be an absolute classic hopefully, really want Bellew but honestly I am not sure what will happen.

Card has plenty of good names on it, thats for sure!

Im torn on who will win but I would much prefer Cleverly to win. It is been pretty embarrassing the way Bellew has handled himself up to this point and if he loses there will be a lot of people reminding him of that

Should be able to find a decent stream theyll be a fair few, tbf last box office I ordered it ****** up and I had to watch it on a stream wasn't happy got a free replay of it though so wasn't all bad
 
Theatreof Dreams said:
Yeah looks like it, wonder what power he will have? Just think Bellew is gonna catch him sooner or later. Don't know which fight to be more excited about lol.

Its such an intriguing match up I normally go with the faster guy but its so hard to guage where clev is since he got destroyed by Kovalev and Bellew has fought the tougher fights at cruiser seriously cannot wait though.

Was quite surprised the size of clev at the weigh in today defo grown into cruiser

Bellew-Clev should be a cracker and a genuine 50/50

The rest have good names but are poor matchups... DeGale has a decent test and Callum Smith probably has the biggest challenge of the rest of the undercard

Yeah agreed joshua should walk through sprott, degale and groves both have fighter that will keep them honest but its just to keep off the ring rust till they have their title fights next year. McDonnel is fighting an unknown but should deal with him. Cannot remember the rest of the card but we will defo see what smith is made of good test and about time the training wheels were taken off learn nothing from knocking out no marks in a round.

Just said on SSN that De Gale and Groves had coming together after weigh ins back stage and De Gale opponent was 2 pound over weight but still fight goes ahead. Winds me up that!
 
DeGale and Groves bust-up with families involved

I hope both win their World Title fights early next year because a unified summer clash between the two would be brilliant to watch

I wonder who DeGale will fight for the IBF because I dont see Froch fighting him, do you think Groves can beat Dirrell I've not seen enough of him to decide only seen him fight Bika for the belt and that was an awful fight

Yeah Froch will defo vacate to get his last fight in Vegas. I think Dirrell would beat groves imo has more skills.
