UK boxing news round up.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Interesting to see Sky pushing a potential Azeez vs Buatsi fight.

I’d say MR are still in the driving seat to re-sign Buatsi but I wouldn’t be completely surprised if he ended up elsewhere.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Latest BBBofC Circular has dropped.

The big news is Hamza Sheeraz will be mandatory to the Bentley-Smith winner. Big fan of Bentley vs Sheeraz, cracking fight.

Zak Chelli has been made mandatory for Mark Heffron’s Super Middleweight title.

Liam Dillon will now face Qais Ashfaq for the vacant Super Featherweight title.

Ijaz Ahmed will now face Marcel Braithwaite for the vacant Super Flyweight title.

Lawal-Chamberlain is agreed, likely for April/May I think.

Essuman vs Scarff also ordered, be interesting to see whether Essuman vacates as he’s now won the title outright.

For the WBA interim if Canelo-Bivol II takes place at 168? Big if I know but surely that's the plan?

Bentley-Sheeraz is a great fight; who do you reckon takes it? Bentley impressed me against Janibek, but anyone with ambitions beyond Euro level should beat him.

Denny-Conway ordered as an eliminator for the British, reckon that happens? I thought I saw Conway was going up to super middle now on a MR release or something a few weeks back. Kind of had him pegged as a potential Berlanga debut opponent.

Heffron-Chelli is terrific, I saw Lerrone withdrew, what else do you reckon he's got in the pipeline?

Don't know too much about Dillon-Ashfaq, but seems a decently matched contest.

I like Lawal-Chamberlain and always have, would be a terrific chief support to a good non-PPV fight, I thought they'd line that up for Okolie's undercard but I reckon it'll headline an April/May show now surely?

I’m pretty 50/50 on it, Sheeraz has looked impressive recently but I don’t think he’s been matched anywhere near as tough as Bentley and that Skeete fight exposed several flaws that I’m not sure he’s corrected yet. I’d probably say Bentley on points but wouldn’t be a confident pick.

Yeah doubtful about that one myself, Conway is sort of becoming an international journeyman.

I don’t know what’s going on with Richards, his careers becoming a mess tbh. He’s been out the ring for like 15 months now and still no return in sight.

Boxxer were planning to do a show April 15th at York Hall I seen, thought Lawal-Chamberlain could possibly headline but not sure whether it was meant to be one of those Prizefighter type tournaments instead.

Was thinking the exact same. Bivol is now super Champion so they could wheel out that regular belt.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Looks like Chris Billam-Smith will get a World title shot May 27th at the Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth.

I’d assume it has to be Goulamirian too, who was rumoured to be fighting Tommy McCarthy.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Beterbiev-Smith been ordered, the fight likely ends up in Canada I reckon.

Lara-Wood rematch close to being finalised for the Summer around June I think.

Boxxer/Sky are gonna announce several shows in the next week or so including Smith-Eubank Jr II, the CBS card and likely the signing of Buatsi too.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Boxxer co-promoting a Polish card is so f***ing random.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Buatsi has officially signed with Boxxer/Sky.

Will fight May 6th in Birmingham.
