    Shadasia Green doesn't appear to be willing to step aside. I guess we'll see how it plays out.

        Would definitely make sense. I don’t really follow the women’s game tbh, so not too sure what’s happening.

          Just thought I’d add, one fight I think they should definitely add to this card is Azeez vs Arthur. Boxxer vs Wasserman and Arthur will shift a few tickets in Manchester.

            You reckon that’s a risk they take with Azeez being right up there in the WBA and the possibility of an interim fight soon? Agree it’s a good fight though.

              WBC withdrew that order. Unfortunate for her, but she’s got no say in it now.

                I can’t see it actually happening tbh. Azeez is likely getting the Buatsi fight later this year and Arthur is going down the IBO route. Would love to see it though but as you say neither team will take that sort of risk.

                  Zelfa Barrett will face Jason Sanchez on the Cordina undercard.

                    On an unrelated LHW note, I see Pitters-MacIntyre on the Birmingham card. Do you reckon if it's a competitive fight they might put Whittaker in with the loser next? Or the winner in a couple fights time? Or is it more likely just on the card to serve as another decent domestic clash with Pitters being from Birmingham do you reckon.

                      Seems an alright fight at short notice but can't say I'm terribly interested in watching it, guy didn't really have a standout win and he's a career feather.

                      I did like Barrett-Dilmaghani but that always seemed doomed from the outset considering the stuff about his illness around the time the fight was announced.
