    UK boxing news round up.

    Joyce-Parker could get pushed back from July to September. Frank is still planning a July show in London that will feature the return of Anthony Yarde.

    Chisora vs Kownacki is on the table for July 9th. Chisora has signed. Matchroom are waiting on a signature from Kownacki.

    Unsure what’s happening with Hughie Fury vs Hunter, deal has reportedly been agreed but still no date or venue announced. July 16th in London was previously rumoured.

    Maxi Hughes and Kid Galahad are in talks for a fight later this year at 135 lbs.

    Josh Kelly will be added to the Wasserman card in Liverpool on June 17th. Opponent TBA.

    Probellum have become increasingly quiet. Their last UK show was April and they have nothing announced throughout the summer yet. Their TV deal with Eurosport has also been nixed. Growing concerns amongst many of their fighters.

    Kownacki is being offered a lot of money considering he lost his last two. Might be dumb not to take the fight.

    That's unfortunate for the Probellum very large roster. The company should fold up and release their fighters.

          I would've preffered Barry Vs Castanada or Yousef Khoumari. I feel like Barry v Hughes could be a stinker. I wonder who Yarde will go up against?

            Yup. I’m loving all the UK shows.

            Cordina in a couple of weeks should be interesting

              Probellum is finished I would imagine. I don't expect any more shows from them.

              Was just thinking about Parker-Joyce the other day and how it's unlikely it will happen in July now.

                I quite like that fight tbh, it’s a Yorkshire Derby so could get a little heated. Always a chance of a dull fight with Galahad though.

                  I think they’re waiting on the WBO to sanction it for the interim title. They’re both ranked highly by the WBC too so maybe they’re waiting to see what happens with Fury’s “retirement”.

                    A few quick additions:

                    - Joyce now may take a tune up on July 16th. Personally, I’m starting to think the fight won’t happen tbh.

                    - Jason Cunningham will be fighting former two weight world champion Zolani Tete, rumoured date is July 2nd on BT Sport.
