The "return" of the magnificent seven features a lot of the same names as the first such card but very few of the competitive matchups, but the nine-hour marathon is probably worth getting between volume and having fights from three different countries on the same card. The best fight on the UK part of the card, by a long shot, is 2008 Olympic gold medalist Degale against Paul "Smigga" Smith, a contestant on the super middleweight version of The Contender who is the reigning British champion. Fellow 2008 Olympian "Funtime" Frankie Gavin takes his first real step up in class against former British title challenger Harrison. Tony Bellew defends his commonwealth light heavyweight title against former Commonwealth titlist and upset specialist McKenzie, a fight that looks much better now that Bellew nearly lost his last fight to the unknown Bob Ajisafe. The other fights on the card (which will include Klitschko-Chisora) basically amount to walkover showcase fights. The card will also include Amir Khan's defense against Marcos Maidana.
