Lomachenko v Rigo this weekend.

Boxing porn, it should be illegal FFS.

Can't call it, Loma is what my head says but Rigo is fucking great. The fact Loma has 8 years on Rigo could be the difference.

I'm picking Loma, think the size difference will be a factor. What a fight though, the technical levels are elite.

DeGale is finished. Him leaving things close and in the judges hands finally goes against him. I can't believe there wasn't a robbery there.

Pathetic quit-job that. Like all of Loma's opponents, they just can't get near him and just tried to spoil. I had Loma 59-54 up by time of stoppage.

De Gale is finished, hardly throws a jab and his distance management was awful. Wins for Yarde and Dubois last night, like the look of Dubois, hopefully he'll get a British title shot soon. No one gets close to Loma at that weight, elite. Bit of a let down though with Rigo quitting, easy to say that when you aren't in the ring with Loma though.

No Mas Chenko is a demon. The angles, the footwork, the smarts. Man, he's different gravy. Who out there is a fight for him really? Mikey Garcia, who else?

A huge puncher like Garcia could be too much for him. Linares and Robert Easter, basically those are the other options and then the Brits at the weight. I'm not sure about him going up to lightweight though, though he fought at it in the Olympics but the weight classes are slightly different. He is actually ridiculous though, never seen anyone with footwork as good as him.

Connor Benn isn't a welterweight, dropped twice tonight in the first round. He rallied well to get two knockdown of his own to get the nod but I think he's a weight to far there.

he isn't really a boxer if we're being honest - at least not one that should be featuring on sky anyway - I could beat him that's how crap he is

holding out because wada could still technically scupper it - but it is looking like THE KING is back

Tyson Joshua is now the only HW fight worth caring about. They can try and hype it as much as they want but not sure anyone outside of the US really gives a shit about Wilder.

Saunders produced a clinic against David Lemieux over in Canada. Career best performance and showed the US networks that he is worthy of a shot at GGG or Canelo.

Just shows how good BJS is when he's interested, Canelo is quite flat footed so I'd fully expext him to have a lot of success but still lose 118-110.

you can get 14/1 for Parker to knockout AJ - if you don't nibble on that you're an idiot - AJ is guaranteed to gas for minutes at a time, he's almost as vulnerable as Price

Usyk v Briedis is free on ITV Box Office channel tonight by the way. Love watching Usyk, the mad genius.

His hockey goon persona makes it a good laugh. People hype this guy massively - few that usually spit sense talk of him going up to HW and schooling everyone - think that's a bit far fetched tbh.

Uysk - Breidis was great btw. The Latvian put up a great fight - Bellew made the right decision going for the Haye money rather than taking him on as his mandatory.

I see David Price will gas out after 3 rounds and get KO'd for the final time on the AJ v Parker undercard. Bringing juiced-up Povetkin over here won't be cheap so seems Hearn is lining him up for AJ. Doesn't appeal to me, he's just a name now and he'll be 40 by then.

He's mandatory for the wba and what is currently parker's wbo so it makes good business sense for Hearn to have em on the platform - as unless they vacate they need to put him out there for bo numbers - he's also fill in if Parker were to get injured.

hope chamberlain beats okolie and rooting for dorticos. will be interesting to see what cheeseman looks like up a level. tough fight for belotti too - we shall learn a lot about both boys.

I'm going Groves on Saturday, he will look massive in there compared to Eubank and I just think he's too experienced and savvy to get beaten in this one. CEJ will be game as fuck and relentless but even if he loses he should come out of this with an enhanced profile and with loads of big fights still to be made.

Groves for me aswell and I think he gets rid of him inside 5/6 rounds. Eubank leaves his chin out there to be hit and Groves hits way too hard to let that happen.
