George Groves fighting a little middleweight...

You've got...
Tony Bellew, Nathan Cleverly, Jamie McDonnell, George Groves, Anthony Joshua, Scott Quigg and James DeGale on a single card. Cleverly-Bellew and DeGale-Periban are the best two fights on it. Quigg-Otake and Smith-Sjekloca are a couple more really good fights.
McDonnell and Groves aren't fighting the best opposition but they're being kept busy and Anthony Joshua fights the sort of opponent you'd expect at this point in his career.
Hearn has put several fighters on one card that could, and do, headline their own card(s). He's a businessman, he isn't going to make enough to justify making all 9 fights quality and competitive.
It has much more depth and quality than the Fury-Chisora card that's for sure.Comment

Fury-Chisora and Eubank Jr vs BJS are better fights than any on the Matchroom card.You've got...

It comes down to personal preference. I don't think it helps that all 4 fighters are British so we've been subjected to more hype, have more invested in it etc...
DeGale-Periban is probably my favourite fight out of the two cards, winner could potentially fight for a world title next fight and it's truly a 50-50 fight. I'm really pumped for BJS-Eubank Jr but they're a few levels below that sort of fight.
Fury-Chisora is about as good as Cleverly-Bellew.Comment
