    There was an article on the back of the HDM this morning (although I can't find it online), Beijing Olympic champion James Degale will be defending his European title in Hull on December the 8th as part of a Mick Hennessey and 5 Boxing fight night that will also be televised on December 8th.

    A load of St Pauls boxers will be on the undercard, including Samir Mounimne who used to go to Bev Grammar who will have a British title eliminator fight.

    Presumably they're deciding between the Ice Arena, City Hall and Gemtec, but the venue and the whole undercard is to be announced today.

    Tickets should start at around £25 upward for 8 fights.

    Good to see we're not just a rugby league town.

    Any idea who there fighting?

    I think Samir gets a shot at current champion Lee Selby who he beat as an Amateur if he wins this.
