    Would be a good unification. Rate Goulamirian but Okolie probably beats him at 100%. Not sure about leaving McGuigan and training in Miami mind …
    Yeah surprised me that. I rate Shane, best coach in the UK for my money.

      These Friday night BT cards are essentially Queensberry’s equivalent of a next gen card.

      Frank has some great prospects, he’s steadily built the best roster in the country.

        Agree, he’s got some terrific fighters I like watching (Sheeraz, Ball, McCann, Itauma, RBS, Cain etc). I think there’s probably still question marks over a few of the others though, I’m not massive on Adeleye at all, Noakes I’d like to see face better opposition, Chamberlain looks alright but not a world beater, Willy Hutchinson got battered by Clarke. Interested to see if you rate any of those four highly and maybe there’s something I’m missing

          I’m of a similar opinion to you, I thought Adeleye got an absolute gift vs Sokolowski, his ceiling will be domestic level IMO. Sam Noakes I quite like the look of, think he’ll be a fun fighter to follow. Hutchinson definitely has questions to answer, I think he was little drained at 168 but the way he fell apart against Clarke is definitely a red flag. Chamberlain is decent IMO, the Ofori win was quite impressive, Ofori was very unlucky to not get the decision against Archie Sharp last time out.

            I think a broadcaster has been found for the Ritson-Davies card. Channel 5 I reckon.

              Peter McGrail will be signing with Matchroom soon too I believe. Will fight on the Callum Smith card.

                Good, would be a shame if it didn't get picked up by a proper broadcaster. Should be a fun fight. More eyes on channel 5, so good all round.

                  This was to be expected. Am I right in thinking that Sunny Edwards, and Conceicao will be coming over from Probellum too?

                    Smart move.

                      I reckon so. Sunny and Hearn seems to be on good terms and Matchroom have good options for him in Martinez, Bam and Yafai later down the line.
