Amir Khan vs Paul Mccloskey undercard
I've very happy that the Khan vs Mccloskey fight is now on Sky Sports 3 and not on pay per view this should just be a routine defence for Khan before a summer showdown with American Tim Bradley and the undercard..well its not really worth to spend 15 pound on after Macklin pulled out of his fight and Fury-Rahman fell through there wasn't a real co-main event to go with the card so Sky decided not to make it a PPV anymore Khan has now had to a big paycut but is still going on with the fight clearing up peoples opinions that Khan is just in it for the money.The fact that it's not PPV has saved me and alot of people dashing out 15 quid to see whats likely a routine defence and a poor undercard. The undercard fights are as follow
Middleweight : Martin Murray vs. John Anderson Carvalho
Welterweight : Craig Watson vs. Lee Purdy
Super Bantamweight : Rendall Munroe vs. Belarus Andrei Isaeu
Lightweight : Graeme Higginson vs. Andy Murray
Lightweight : Jamie Kavanagh vs. TBA
Heavyweight : Richard Towers vs. TBA
Bantamweight :Tasif Khan vs. TBA
Super Featherweight: Gary Buckland vs. Rafael Hernandez
The only fight out of them that am really interested in seeing is the Rendall Munroe fight but there could be a thriller between Craig Watson and Lee Purdy for the vancant British belt.Obvsiously not all the fights are going to be shown on sky but I hope the two/three they show will be half decent.In truth Hatton promotions have ruined the undercard and if this was a show by Frank Warren the level of standard of the undercard would be at a much stronger level for e.g Khans last fight against Marcos Maidana Frank Warren but on a very good undercard with Nathan Cleverly,Kell Brook and James Degale on the bill them fights were worth paying for.Ricky Hatton seems to be a very poor promoter and this card has showed that lets just hope that Sky make a last minute deal with HBO and they show Berto-Ortiz in what would be a much more promising night of boxing,but this sadly its doubtful they'll pick up that fight.

Re: Amir Khan vs Paul Mccloskey undercard
On the sky sports website it has the ortiz-berto fight on it's schedule so we might get to watch it. I agree that the card looks weak, there are no real good fights. Although hatton may seem poor atm, I think it's too early to judge as his stable is slowly growing.
If fury-Rahman, rees-crolla and macklins fight all went through then that would make it a strong looking undercard. If only Matty askin and mathee hatton hadn't fought so recently they could have been added. I like warrens shows also as he gives us lots of fights with britains best prospects. As cleverly, degale and Gavin all have fights on 21/5 and kell brook has left, Warren would have struggled to get a good undercard for this fight.

Hatton should have seen if GBP could have helped him out it's a very weak card.
