Resurrection card in Birmingham tonight

Hi All,

My mate has managed to get me a free ticket for this tonight but I've got a DJ gig until 10pm (although it's only a 5 minute walk from the NIA). Does anyone know what time it finishes? Just seeing if it'll still be worth heading down to...

I know Sky's coverage covers til 12, not sure what fights you will catch though?

Its a hopeless card. Mismatch after mismatch.

Should still hopefully be entertaining - it'll be my first live show as well and can't really complain when it's costing nothing...

Enjoy it Quentin, ignore the misery guts, some are still sore after last week

I must admit only Joshua really excites me on the bill, and that will be its usual 9 mins max.

Should catch the main event if you're in the area. May as well, if it's only 5 mins away. Enjoy.

You may have truly awful luck.

Burns and McDonnell are fighting in Texas and the sky show will be switching there from 10pm.

The live fights in Birmingham are Joshua, Campbell, Macklin, Eggington and Kal Yafai and they'll all be finished by 10.

It really is a bit of a crap card... No real fights on there, Sky are almost paying to watch sparring matches on TV, thankfully the two in Texas should be good, then we have Canelo

I think Catchweight was being a little kind , where on gods planet has Hearn found these opponents ? And who is sanctioning these ? Knew i should've stuck with Britains got talent instead of this dross !

cheers, rodders

McDonnell v Kameda is a really good match.

Jamie put down in the 3rd with a great shot. But, looks to be getting back into the fight.

Sadly I've been a bit distracted so not exactly scoring but, I think Jamie has been getting off the cleaner shots for the last 3-4 rounds. So, I think he's ahead. But, the knock down might have nullified that.

Joshua's opponent looks like a fat Jon Snow from Game of Thrones

Fast hands from Kameda but I think McDonnell has won the majority of rounds. I think only lost 2 in the last 6. But the US commentators seem very pro Kameda, not sure if that is a sign of how the result with go.

Is the McDonnel Fight On?

Why aren't sky showing it? Rather than the biggest set of mismatches this year

It's the only fight I'm remotely interested in and they don't even show it live

Pathetic

I'm watching it on stream. Its a great fight.

I won't give you the result then but its a good fight. Both fighters showing a lot of skill and heart.

Go for it sky get more useless by the day no wonder I cancelled it

It was a good fight. Sadly, I'm being distracted by people phoning me but, the fight was very good. As expected from the lower weights.

Kameda has good hand speed and both show a lot of skill and heart.

Reaffirms your faith in boxing!

Smith okays the fights...

Lawrence Cole impartial ref right there :-/

Make Haye an offer for Josh......

Win-Win for the viewer...

Both a couple of Muppets.

Just seen the result .. So sky put on a sack of sh1te and not shown the McDonnell fight live !! They get worse.

Cheers , Rodders

Good opener

The mcdonnell fight was a great match and sky didn't even bother useless bunch of clowns

Sky with their usual pathetic standard

Burns winning clearly and they can't give him any credit

Needs to get that jab working again snapping his head back with it

The crowd is ridiculously partisan in Texas. Figueroa is breathing and they cheer!

And the ref is playing to them a bit. Even the commentators are saying they can't see what the ref is seeing, at times.

Come on Ricky, would be beautiful if two Brits screwed Haymon over.

What was result of McDonnell fight?

Burns fight is a cracker so far

Good fight this, Burns giving as good as hes getting

Figueroa looking very very ordinary

Figaroa is ridiculously open

Think Sky are showing it after Burns mate

McDonnell won 114-113 on all cards

I've got burns 3-1 what is Jim watts problem with burns ?

Cheers , Rodders

The ref might win this for Figueroa.

Burns looks like a man who thinks this is his last chance. Good on him. He's doing as well as the ref will let him.

Ref far too fussy

Ricky Burns I'm loving it!! GO ON LAD

Am I watching a different fight to Halling and Watt but i'm not seeing Figeroa worrying Burns here like they are?

They are useless that's all

The CBS commentators have Ricky winning and out techniqueing him

Figueroa sinking in them body shots, will be interesting to see how much juice Burns has left in his legs at this point of his career

If he keeps this up then Burns could (although texan judges) win this

I love Ricky the guy is made of reinforced concrete but he looked finished before this fight, is he just back to near his best or is Figeroa that bad?

Figuearoa looks very average.

Even the American commentators are saying they think the ref is being very biased and letting Figueroa get away with stuff and penalising Burns for non offences.

I've managed to zone out the sky commentary team Jim watts scorecard is ridiculous

The American Twitterati have Burns well ahead.

Complete opposite sky got burns down and saying he is getting away with everything

Got it even after 6 come on Ricky.

Commentating dreadful as usual.

Think the score will be debated no matter what here

Eghhh this commentating

Burns 1 up ..

Fook off Jim Watt
