    Quite apart from being a good matchup, Egg vs Pig is the best food fight we've had since Egg vs Cheese

        Best non-PPV card Boxxer have put together IMO.

          Decent card but why go on the same date as Conlon and Wood. Now I'm going to be jumping around on the remote worse than a nurse looking for a pay rise

            This had to be May 27th tbf, because of the site. It was the only date the stadium was available. Work on the pitch begins at the start of June. Smith-Eubank couldn’t get Anfield for the same reason, Bellew had to fight on a Bank Holiday Sunday at the end of May to secure Goodison.

              Couldnt they go on the Friday or the Sunday. Having 3 fights all on the same night competing for the same viewers is nonsensical.

                I thought they might have went Sunday with it being a bank holiday. Bournemouth play their last game of the season on the Sunday though so I suppose you’d lose some of the football crowd.

                Promoters need to do more to avoid the clashes. It is annoying.

                  If Eggington loses to Pigford then he knows it's back to the fork-lift truck.

                    What a shame Tommy Welch can't be matched with Frank Ignatius or Jeamie TKV for the vacant Southern area H/W title!
