Weird night to have this fight could be a good scrap I think Lindsay has bit to much class for Simpson but he is tough as old boots and will make it hard, I heard Tony Jefferies is on the bill possible future opponent for De Gale maybe?

Yeah it's a weird night for boxing. Should be a close match.
Tony needs to get a good win, he's been a bit poor recently.
OK fight for a Wednesday. :)
i think simpson is a good fighter and has been unlucky more than once, including in his last fight where i thought he won it reasonably comfortably
i have a feeling tho tonight isnt gonna go well for him, he is tough and doesnt get stopped but i have a feeling he might tonight :)
Jeffries is fighting a 37 year old with a 4-3 record who's only fought twice since 2005 :vd:
He needs a good performance after last time, but Maloney's not doing a good job moving him along. He's a good lad and I hope he does well, but the level of competition needs to improve soon.
Bit of an odd night for the show to be on, but it should be good fight
Jeffries has been exposed already IMO. no way he makes it anywhere near the top. He gets hit way way too easy and has some stamina issues too to go with it.Quote:

TBH I've never been overly impressed with him, but I always thought he'd be good at domestic or Euro level. It doesn't look promising when you look at the level of fighters he's currently mixing it with and compare it to the other Olympians that turned pro at the same time. He's been out training with Tommy Brooks so maybe we'll see some improvements. He's looked very average in a few of his fights already and I think all that optimism people had up here about him's died down quite a bit latelyQuote:

They've done it before with a few shows on Sky. God knows why, but it breaks up the week quite nicely anyway.Quote:

Looking forward to this one.
There is nothing else on Wednesday not even Corrie now, so will watch it. :)
That's a harsh way to lose your title!
Clash of heads in the first round and you lose.
Cracking fight so far.
Quality fight. :cool:
Great fight, Simpson deserved the win, those body shots looked very hurtful and he was landing them almost every time.
i was totally wrong
i like simpson a lot
i hope he starts to get a break now
Hats off to Simpson deserves this been a great pro.
Simpson was strong and it was a good fight better than watching the Liverpool match.
