[Vano-irons]

This is a cracking fight, really is. Shame it won't happen

 

[Roe]

Warren should definitely take this fight. It's a chance to get one of his brightest prospects on sky sports, nobody will really care that it's not on boxnation and it's a fight BJ can win and help progress his career.

 

[Grant]

Is this part of the reason Frank postponed the presser for the June 15th show?

 

[tdw]

I wouldn't completely rule out Warren letting this happen. I think Saunders wins

 

[adamcanavan]

I think saunders takes this also i was hoping this would be on the warren wembley card to be honest

 

[sim_reiss]

I think Warren more than fancies Billie Joe in this. Would make a great chief support for a London card!

 

[rocky1]

Yeah I think Saunders would win this also, Would Eddie and Frank be able to work together to put the fight together though?

i think it might work that both might want to get one over on the other one by taking the 0 of their undefeated prospect, fingers crossed anyway

 

[tdw]

Warren seems to be struggling to make small hall shows work as well so this may do him a favour. Saunders gets work on a Hearn show and that allows someone else to get a slot on one of the bigger shows

Looks promising given BJS tweets to Eddie.

 

[BoxingAnalyst]

It's definitely happening, Saunders just tweeted it. Hearn says June 22nd or July 6th, could have Mitchell on the undercard.

I think Ryder takes this on points, he's skilled enough to be competitive with BJS at range but he's much the better fighter on the inside, he's also the stronger man, Billy's stamina is a big worry, Ryder could do some serious damage in the second half of the fight.

 

[Roe]

Is this the first Warren vs Hearn fight since BoxNation's been around? Or maybe even the first ever?

John Murray was due to face Gavin Rees.

I can't think of anything else.

These are probably my two favourite prospects, but I'd pick Billy Joe, although its a great match up.

 

[Roe]

They should do an HBO style face/off with Frank and Eddie, complete with Max Kellerman, backwards chairs and dramatic music.

Who would do the Kellerman bit? I'd vote for Tyson Fury!

:lol: He'd probably just take all the spotlight

Allegedly vs the one suit millionaire.
