It's a decent card don't me wrong, I just think people are going way overboard.

Fury beats Chisora.
BJS will stomp to a victory.
Smith does Mansoori with ease, likewise Walsh with either Sykes or Kay.
Derry/Flanagan is interesting but Derry is close to calling it a day.
It'll be good to see a retuned Chambers but he won't be facing anyone capable of beating him.
Ditto with Hughie.

I would happily put my money on all of those predictions which tells me the card isn't as good as some are making it out to be.
See that's your opinion. But look at the opinion of a wider spectrum of people: opinions are split of fury and chisora, and on the method too. Fair enough almost everyone is picking billy joe, but trust me Blandamura is a very very live threat. Most people may agree that Smith will win, I personally think it goes to the wire on points. Derry-Flanagan is perceived to be a great fight, most people are predicting flanagan but I havent seen anyone saying derry doesnt have a chance. Chambers will have a ranked opponent, take that as you will. I actually think Sykes beats Walsh, surely I'm not alone :lol:
 
The thing with this card is, we don't have a clue what it will be like until probably the week of the fight. So I'm not going to get expectations up when invariably it will be probably be nothing like whats being posted here. Matthews - Flanagan is unlikely to happen from whats been said. Its still so far away.

You also have to consider that the promoter of the card has run 20 companies into the ground in the past 30 years. Its easy to put on a quality card when you are paying 7pence on the pound.
