Yeah this pisses all over Sky/Matchroom PPV's.
An outstanding IBO supermiddle world championship main event between two fighters not ranked in the top 10 anywhere in the world. The Dunghutti Destroyer (11-1-0) is the 20/1 defending champion, Simply the Best-ish MK II (23-1-0) is a 1/200 challenger. The bookies believe there's more chance of Elvis living on the moon than the Aussie going home with his mickey mouse belt.
The fantastic undercard consists of -
Andrew Selby (7-0-0) vs Ardin Diale (32-10-4), which the bookies also see as a mismatch. The Welsh Mayweather's younger brother (1/200) challenges for the WBC international title against the filipino Jackal (20/1), who will be hoping to make it 5th time lucky that he isn't stretchered out on foreign soil.
Kid Galahad (21-0-0) is a 1/20 favourite over 50-year-old former bantamweight "world" champion Joseph Agbeko (31-5-0), in an IBF voluntary featherweight eliminator for #2-position. The old boy is going backdown in weight to challenge the UK's Lee Haskins and/or Jamie McDonnell after losing to Bazza.
Adam Etches (21-1-0) faces John Ryder (23-3-0) for the vacant IBF International supermiddle title. The gorilla (8/11 fav) needs a win to stave off a day job back on the building site, Etches (6/4) wants to erase the memory of the last time he was on the box when Sergey 'bond villain' Kometsky decapitated him. On a form line through the bond villain, Ryder - who has also mixed in higher class - should have the beating of Etches.
David Price (21-3-0) finally takes a slight step back up in class against Christian Hammer (20-4-0). Ironically considering his name, Hammer (2/1) is a virtual powderpuff puncher for a heavyweight, however, big Pricey's (4/11) beard ear is so fragile that, along with his non-stamina, will struggle to see the line should the fight reach the 10 minute mark.
