Josh Taylor tickets on sale Thursday

Is his opponent confirmed? Last I read Baranchyk said he was 100% out of the tournament regardless of what the contracts said.

Strong rumours of Ricky Burns stepping in. Hope not!

I was going to get tickets but I'm convinced the lad is going to pull out.

Just had a look and Ticketmaster cant be that confident as instead of naming it Taylor V Branczyk (sp?) its just called World super six boxing or something so my search for Josh Taylor returned zero results!

It would never have been billed as Taylor V Baranchyk on Ticketmaster. It’s a WBSS show and that would always be the billing.

Fowler v Fitzgerald is a good fight.

[Mon Dieu4]

Was a great fight that Fitzgerald won by a couple, goes to show you can run you mouth off all you want but if you can't back it up, JT is by far the best of the current crop but gets nowhere near the praise he's due

Only just nabbed it by split decision too, with the knockdown being the difference. Really enjoyed the fight.

I thought it was a wee bit wider than that, Sky and Matchroom hype folk up, which granted is their job but there is is a real difference when you step up

Of the curent crop Buatsi is the only one that looks special to me

Ah right. I'm sure the last one had WBSS then Taylor V
Martin.

Makes sense though I suppose with monster Inoue on the card

Do you have a contact? I thought tickets weren’t released until this Thursday.

Nice one! We were considering floor seats for this fight, but probably won’t bother if it’s confirmed Baranchyk is pulling out to be replaced by Burns.

[H18 SFR]

Tickets booked. Taking the wife rather than going with the lads but glad to be going.

[marinello59]

Tickets bought for Josh Taylor as well. Can’t wait.

Given that it looks like Baranchyk will be stripped of his title if he doesn’t fight I’m fairly confident it will still be him. Y

Ivan Baranchyk’s manager David McWater has stated that they could now RE-JOIN the WBSS and face Josh Taylor next. McWater confirmed the IBF are threatening to strip Baranchyk and so he has a conference call scheduled with them and the WBSS organisers tomorrow. [

Can’t see Baranchyk vacating. Bring it on

Anyone up & tuning into the latest Lomachenko beat down tonight?

[Mon Dieu4]

I really like Crolla, he's as great guy but Lomachenko is the greatest boxer I've ever seen, sounds mad as he's only had 14 professional fights but the guy is simply amazing and does things I've never seen before, think he's found his weight though and he shouldn't move up to 140 although I'd love to see him against Taylor

Can’t see him ever going up to 140, unfortunately.

Still plenty big fights for him at Lightweight, I fancy him to collect all belts there soon enough. One fighter who I think will cause him problems is Luke Campbell (trained by Shane Mcguigan like Josh) - brilliant fighter who’s really tall and rangy for the weight.

Hoping he gets in with Mikey Garcia next as he’s another who has the pedigree to cause him issues.

Would be a good fight with Campbell, he's got amazing speed and did well against Linares, but I think Loma is pretty much untouchable, Garcia would be his biggest test I think

Watched the replay - fight should have been stopped in the 3rd not really sure what the ref was doing. Crolla was out of his depth in taking on Loma

Rumours online that AJ's next opponent Big Baby Miller has failed a drugs test.

Squeaky bum time for Hearn & co.

Apparently he hasn't failed, he's simply returned an "adverse finding". :-)

Read there that he will likely be able to explain/bull**** his way out of it.
