Who the fk cares about Warrington...

This is a shady bill even by Matchroom's less than stellar standards. Hyland is a step back for Warrington after Amagassa, particularly when you consider Josh had the Selby fight on tap. Hyland just got blown away by Russell and doesn't have one notable win on his whole record!

On the undercard, Coyle is being thrown in with Nurse to take a bad beating at a higher weight class. Campbell doubtless fighting a journeyman... Ditto Dillian. And Gamal v Josh Wale? Meh, Wale's a journeyman with 8 losses.

On the whole, a dire card. I doubt I'll even watch it on TV.

I am disappointed. He ducked Selby to get married, OK. The wedding is over. Selby called him out, laughed at him, put his mouth all over him. He can't let it go just like that. He'll get boo'd in Leeds if he runs from Selby.
