Can't wait for it.
Can't call it for Groves or Froch ethier. The only thing I can say, is who won't be referring ![]() Froch can train all he wants but you cant beat father time and the last fight showed his slowing down and he doesnt have the tools to combat Groves speed. |

Froch will lose. His slipping and his now up against a younger quicker fighter who can basically do what he wants with Froch.

Tommy Coyle didnt deserve that win. 4 times on the floor, ref gave him plaenty of time to recover, dirty low blows, elbows, punching on the break from Coyle, then the argie goes down for a count of six in the final round and the ref stops it! Unjust.
Coyle got very very lucky. |

Mayweather vs Maidana is official.
Khan has spent 10 months chasing a dream that seemingly everyone but himself (and the redtops) thought was nothing more than delusion. His options now...Porter, Alexander, Brook and I would say Broner. Alexander and Brook should have been his options 10 months ago. |

Think Khan would need a tune up fight first though, hasn't been in the ring for almost a year iirc. |

Hasn't Brook got a shot at Porter? Fight against Brook would sell and be a rival to Froch vs Groves in terms of build up in my opinion.
Think Khan would need a tune up fight first though, hasn't been in the ring for almost a year iirc. So in theory if Khan beat porter then he would have to fight kell. Problem is that Floyd would probably choose Khan so amir would just give up the belt. I still think GBP will try and screw kell out of his title fight somehow. Not sure why Khan is adamant on not fighting kell Brook. Hearn will pay Khan good money and this would be a big fight in the UK. |

Guess Who ?
The title doesn't seem to appear ? it was Guess Who.
My first cousin, My Dad's Sister's Son. I met him when I was nearly 10 and thats 53 years ago .... so maybe you would have to be in your 60's or older to get this.http://s9.postimg.org/r94cvpxxb/Who.png http://s4.postimg.org/gt84x30zh/Who2.png |

Ricky Burns cant have too many complaints after his defeat tonight, was outclassed.
Anthony Joshua looks amazing, needs a step up in class of opponent now though. |

Saw DeGale win earlier. Looked decent enough but shouldve finished him off a couple of rounds earlier.

I hope the undercard for Froch vs Groves II is a significant improvement to the usual tripe UK fans are subjected to, otherwise having the event at Wembley will look abit silly. Goldenboy got it right for Mayweather vs Canelo with Matthyse vs Garcia, this event needs a fight like Brook vs Khan.

Fury -v- Chisora 2 - 26/07/14 in Manchester
The rematch between Fury & Chisora has just been announced.
It's set for 26th July 2014 at the Phones4u Arena in Manchester & the winner is guaranteed a title shot according to Mr Warren. Although I don't rate either of them, it's an intriguing contest. Chisora has stopped doing his training in Burger King and Greggs, and as a consequence, he has improved a little bit Fury, on the other hand, doesn't really appear to have improved since they first fought & thanks to David Haye, he's been idle of a lot of the last 18 months. Neither can punch & neither have the best stamina either, so it's hard to call for me. I'll just sit on the fence until near to fight time & wait to see what shape they're both in. |

Id say they're both capable bangers but both with terrible defences. Personally i have Fury winning again but think he's gonna have to haul his ass up off of the canvas to do so. |

If Chisora is fit, I expect him to perform like he did vs Helenius. If Chisora weighs what he did in the first fight, it will end in a T/KO for Fury.

If Fury does win he will have to get up off the floor to do it.
Leaves himself far too open. Chisora won't hang back against him this time. Should be a good fight. |

Fury is an absolute plonker of the highest order & with a bit of luck Chisora gets fighting fit and blows Fury's head off his shoulders.

Par for the course with boxing matches, be disappointed if there wasn't some acting.

Khan will be on the Maydana card vs Luis Collazo. Collazo in the past has been KO'd by Hatton, who IIRC broke one of his ribs. His other notable fights include a loss to Mosley, a loss to Berto and in his last fight he KO'd Ortiz, although that isn't very difficult these days.

I really want to see Haye fight Fury. However it seems Haye keeps chickening out like a coward.

I can't decide whether he wants to be an actor, a model, a Z-list celebrity or a boxer. It's a shame really, because he is one of the few exciting HWs out there & does inject some colour into a moribund division. |
