Adrian Broner stripped of title

and so, not so surprisingly   Adrian Broner falled to make the weight and yesterdays weigh in ahead of his clash with Ashely Theophane , looks like the fight will still go ahead but Theophane being the only one able to win the WBA title. I will be watching it later so we will see, 

Chris eubank Jnr for me

ok so, there hasn`t been much worth talking about the past couple of weeks, i will reserve judgement on Lucas Browne and his blood test rest until something more official has been put out there. I am looking forward to the Middleweight Title fight more than any other card that on Saturday as stated previously.
Expect a great dust up for free, i am interested to see what path Chris Jnr will take after and what channel he will be fighting on.
Will Matchroom promote him again, will Frank Warren. well not according to both Bosses, will he go down the Al Hayman route in the USA?. like what James Degale is at the moment.

enjoy!

Kell Brook or Chris Eubank Jnr who to watch

and so, this coming Saturday 26th March we have 2 fight cards going on, SKY have #allofthelights and Kell Brook defending his IBF Title against the well known Kevin Bizier (the guy who got beat by Jo Jo Dan twice who Brook beat up last year!) so that should be a close fight NOT!
and on SPIKE TV from 7pm then going over to Channel 5 at 9, we have Chris Eubank Jnr v Nick Blackwell for the British Middleweight Title, with Hughie Fury also on the card.

Well i know what card i will be watching and it won`t be SKY. I would be really interested to see the viewing numbers for SKY v SPIKE/Channel 5.
I recently cancelled my Sky Sports package as there have been so many PPV fights recently it was costing a fortune!. If a card interests me i will just get a NOW TV day pass to watch it. All the next big fights coming are all PPV anyway. Joshua V Martin etc. I wonder how many other people will do what i have done?
I am really looking forward to the Eubank fight he is never boring thats for sure, unlike yawn Kell Brook in recent fights.

This weeks Muhammad Ali quote is....

Nigel Benn wants a 50/50 split and Wembley showdown

an so, Nigel Benn has been back in the press about the Eubank v Benn saga, he has said that if the fight takes place he want s a 50/50 split not 70/30. So it seems that Chris Eubank Snr has told Been he wants 70% of the purse if the fight were to take place. I still think what i said in an earlier post that Eubank is edging towards a Double bill with Chris Eubank Jnr on the same card. This is only my personal opinion and there is not fact to it. But again i would be surprised if this were  the Master plan. So we will see if the 2 once great champions will be more like Chumpions if the fight does take place. Although how old was George Foreman when he won the heavyweight title second time around well he was 45... so anything is possible right?? 

Anthony Joshua v David Haye build up has started early

as so on the SKY SPORTS website we have Anthony Joshua being interviewed and asked the question are you ready for David Haye//Answered "BRING IT ON" then David Haye replying with a Video of his own.. OK so it is March 2016.... AJ hasnt even won the IBF Heavyweight Title YET and the PROMO of Haye v Joshua has started, dont be fooled in thinking these are random videos and interviews and replies this is managed behind the scenes to make a Wembley Stadium 80,000 sellout of the these 2 Big hitters. Enjoy the Ride folks it will be quite a lengthy one to build up PPV sales and Wembley ticket sales. Not gonna lie though does give a little tingle downstairs when i think of the fight actually happening ;#0

Billy Joe Saunders takes on erm Max Bursak who the eff

and so, It has been announced that Billy Joe Saunders will defend the WBO Middleweight title againt the well known erm Max Bursak. Yes thats right the one the only Max Bursak!! Never heard of him?? well ME EITHER!!!!! i don`t think this is even a mandatory. Frank Warren has picked this guy out!!!! I know Kell Brook has fought nobodies since he won the IBF Welterweight Title but all but Gavin they have been mandatory`s. Bursak (32-4-1 KO15) hardly a world title prospect. It annoys me when world title holders decide to take on nobodies (no disrespect to the fighters) but when people are paying good money wether it be through subscriptions or paying to go and see the fight they should at least take on a name that is known! I will bet that the copperbox arena wont be full on April 30th and if it is its because Frank Warren will be standing outside giving away tickets to get in.

so put in your diary folks (i won`t be) April 30th Billy Joe Saunders v Max Bursak Copperbox Arena.. Defo a you tube moment for me!!

Hughie Fury going down the WBC route

and so Hughie Fury gets a shot at the WBC International heavyweight Title on March 26th which will be shown live on SPIKE TV with after 9pm on CHANNEL 5, the same card Eubank Jnr takes on Nick Blackwell for the British middleweight title.

Its always a bonus when its free to watch right?,

Fury will take on 'Dominican Dynamite' Nagy Aguilera (no relation to Christina) Nagy has been a Pro since 2009 and is known as a tough fighter who fights on the front foot and can also bang pretty hard. On the flip side it will be Fury`s first time stepping up to 12 rounds.
A few months ago Deontay  Wilder WBC Heavyweight Champ called out Hughie Fury but on very short notice i.e one month. which was obviously turned down at the time by Peter Fury (Dad and Trainer to Hughie and trainer to Tyson Fury) i know the team are very keen on putting Hughie in with some very big names and Peter (quite obviously) rates Hughie very highly.
It should be an interesting fight and if he pulls through it (which the odds are stacked high in his favour) then i expect to see Hughie in some big fights sooner rather than later
