Cook is 'too heavy to safely make the weight'.
That show has been decimated. First Bellew-McKenzie off and now the replacement fight off.
Fair to say Sky will probably just sack it off, too.

Unless they perform a scramble to find a worthy opponent or a worthy fight for the main event.Quote:

Apparently there is some doubt as to whether the actual event will go through as it's the only title fight on the line. The rest of the card is here:

While it would certainly make things easier for fans, and probably deliver a better experience, there's no way the egos involved would make a climbdown like that. Or is that cracking sound the ice over hell....Quote:

The fight was to late notice for Cook who always needs a bit of time to get his weight right.
i hope i still have some boxing to watch this saturday
i dont mind having the heavyweight fight as the main event, i reckon it could go a few rounds at least

Ah ok, cheers for that...no way I'll be buying it though! Gavin v Lomax shouldnt be so bad anyway, and curious to see how War Machine does against Big John...though I dunno how far Olubamiwo can go really, always looks kinda wooden and almost like he stuggles to get the right shots off sometimes, like hes too bulky or something.Quote:

What a save by Frank Warren. This is a really good competative step up for Gavin and a decent main event under the circumstances. I thought Lomax was signed to fight Lee Purdy on the Premier Sports card, but looks like Purdy is left without a dance partner now.
