Its Box Office so i thought it deserves it own thread. As a main event, I dont think this should be anywhere near a PPV but as a whole card i really like it. Just a real weird mish mash of fights.

The main event could be good, it could be a stinker, it was scheduled once before but a spider bite KO'd Parker from that. I really like Joseph Parker but outside of the Dillian Whyte he's been in some right shitfests, you just always sense that he's leaving tools in the locker when he fights. Delboy will always blow hot and cold so who knows what we get?

Both fighters are with new teams, not sure what Chisora can be taught at this point but i like the sound of Parker teaming up with Andy Lee at Kronk.

Rest of the card is a strange mix but its intriguing. I have investment in each fight on there.

Taylor/Jonas is a nice domenstic world title fight. Jonas deserved a big fight after being held to that draw with Harper, many believed she won that. I cant see her troubling Taylor a division up but it should be good.

Bivol/Richards and Eubank/Morrison sound like blowouts, but they could be fun. Be great to Bivol fight over here.

James Tennyson, the most feared boxer in the UK according to Johnny Nelson fight for an IBO World Title.

So yeah that's it...

They'll stick anything on a PPV these days, won't they?

it'll be the last one hopefully that doesn't involve AJ or Dillian Whyte given this new DAZN deal coming.

Uh oh.

All over who gets to walk out second as best I can tell. Pathetic. And if Del hasn’t really got the hump and it’s all just a publicity stunt then it’s a really, really, really shite one. People who weren’t gonna buy the fight anyway won’t be swayed to part with £20 because one of the fighters threw a strop and wanted to go home. Again, pathetic.

I personally wouldn't care if neither of them walked out at all, never mind who gets to walk out second. It's a middle of the road fight at best.

Cant imagine its a publicity stunt, Delboy is just a headcase. Imagine if they can't resolve this? ?

I’d be quite happy if that happened and they stuck it on regular Sky Sports, like it should’ve been all along, with Taylor vs Jonas as headliner.

I’m not paying but I’m not that arsed if it doesn’t happen, to be honest. It’s a solid card but I actually like the undercard more than the main event. Chisora vs Parker wasn’t doing it for me. I like Parker but I can never really get into his fights.

yeh, im with you. The fact that Parker is such a likeable guy is what keeps drawing me to his fights, that and just having a sense that he has more in the locker that he rarely shows. Im hoping the hook up with Andy Lee brings soemthing out in him.

He loves a stinker though. He even managed to have a crap fight with AJ, and AJ fights are rarely dull. Tomorrow night could be rotten, but i always have hope.
