    Cheavon Clarke rumoured to be fighting Tommy McCarthy on Jan 27th in Belfast. Interesting step up fight. Crocker will headline the card.

    Really enjoying this Matchroom & Conlan Boxing link up thus far.
    Chevs my favourite British fighter. Good lad in real life too. If Agjarko and Donovan end up on the card, I might the trip to Belfast for it.

      I think that’s a great test for him, on the road, former European Champion. Really positive matchmaking.

      I really like the look of Donovan. Have been on the hype train since his debut. I think he’ll go all the way.

        Chev-McCarthy is a really good fight, looking forward to that. Wonder who Crocker will face? I think Conah Walker would've been good but he's got the Pattinson rematch.

          Could see Donovan in a knockover but probably not Agyarko coming off a tough 10 rounder eight weeks before - probs go on Taylor's next card.

            I seen a rumour about Lewis Ritson but not sure I believe that.

            With it being the headline fight, I’d suspect it’s a semi-recognisable name though.

              Ritson is surely waiting for the call against Azim or Smith which would pay far more I’d imagine.

              Although yeah I suppose Ritson’s reasonable, might well be stepping up to 147.

                I think it’s a mismatch as well tbh. In an ideal world I’d like to see him fight Jordy Weiss.

                  Jose Felix. I suppose it’s not terrible. Card looks alright especially given we normally get very little in January.

                    Felix is a Lightweight for me, would’ve been a better opponent for McComb. I guess they’ll try and sell it as some revenge missing after Felix iced Cully but I’m not a fan of this matchup tbh.
