This is shocking for a PPV card. Winners, Cardle, Yafai, Smith, Fielding, Campbell, Quigg, Lee, Crolla all very one sided fights.

They have to make Froch/Groves seems less by comparison...

Any ideas in what time froch and groves will get in the ring?

Im out for a meal tonight and there is a bar a few miles away showing it but wont bother racing there after if its going to be early.

Crappy undercard but I still have some interest in seeing Quigg and Lee scrap.

Not sure but according to the matchroom card info it will be before 11 pm. So I reckon between 10 and 11 pm.

Rocky Fielding in the ring now with first bout of the night.

[smashup]

David Haye looks like a stylish Dr Evil with his shoulder thing lol.

[Beanz]

Well Fielding didn't mess around. Good talent. Plenty more to come from him in a division that will soon test him.

@Greenbeanz - where are you from in England? Is Froch popular among average sport fans in Nottingham? Where is Groves from?
