Better than Madison Square Garden.
I assumed he would fight Jack Catterall again, even with the injury.Quote:

Hope it doesn’t do as much damage to the pitch as Elton John did.
Pity he's patching the Catterall fight. Will hang over him for a long time. Either way happy enough to take in a fight at Easter Road. Pitch is a **** mind.
Might relay the pitch with the money since its the end of season. Will be 10x the international interest in this fight compared to Catterall.
Wonder if season tickets will be valid
Can I get my usual seat before a general sale? 🤣

Mad eh. The chance of bother here on a Saturday night or a Hibs Ross County at 3pmQuote:

Take it you'll only get in if you don't have a COVID passport?
I see what you did there 🤭Quote:

Hope it isn't at Easter Road, pitched looked pretty poor against Dundee United and any kind of event just makes it worse.
In May/ June the pitch will be fineQuote:

Get the proclaimers at ER in the same week. Has to happen.
Then re-lay the pitch!
Good extra revenue for the club.

Prefer this to having to endure another fight v Catterall. It was a crap fight, their styles didn't really gel and the only reason anyone wants to see it again is because of the totally OTT 'robbery' stuff.
This is a Top Rank fight its the American Bob Arum and ESPN, hence they will have no interest in Catterall. Lopez is still big business in the US and Mexico, winner will get another big fightQuote:
