I give up. Yet another joke decision.

lol's sounds like you were also on Mouniemne. Even upon hearing it was a split decision I wasn't nervous until hearing the last judge was Terry O'Connor. God knows how he can score that so wide for Walsh.

I had a decent bet IR when the prices were stupid. How can anyone give Walsh 9 rounds? I had it 115-112 to Samir.

Gotta feel for Mouniemne. No way was he a 11-4 shot, he won that fight and he was really unlucky versus Josh Warrington. Now he's got 2 losses on his record and will struggle to get the fight's he deserves.

[McGlashan]

I know Nascimento loses to anyone competent and usually gets stopped but Chisora weighing in the best part of 2 stone overweight got me interested in the 10/1 points.

Del Boy looking terribly sluggish through 4 bar one good shot in the 3rd.

[McGlashan]

Nice one Baz and thanks for getting us through one hell of a stinker of a fight.

[Bazzaboy]

Cheers that was exactly the sort of performance from Del Boy that I had in mind. I'm glad he read the script.

Chudinov in a different league to Buglioni but then we all knew that. One of the best 1/4 shots you'll ever see. Great heart from Buglioni to hear that final bell mind you.

As much as I'd like to see Ovill bring home the belt the price on Ramirez is too big. He has gone 12 with Huck and got a W over Afolabi. That's levels above anything Ovill has achieved. Ovill will be dangerous for the opening 3 or 4 rounds but once his tank starts to empty I expect Ramirez to get him out of there pretty handily. Taking the fight at 11 days notice doesn't work in Ovill's favour either.

[McGlashan]

Na, na na na na,
Na na na na, na na na na na na na,
Na na na na.

Here come the upsetter!

[McGlashan]

Ovil's the fashionable bet so far with a sea of blue on oddschecker. It really is fairytale stuff to see a fighter with 25wins band 12 losses having a legit chance of winning a world title.

[McGlashan]

Ramirez is the tallest 5'7" man in the world ever.

[Bazzaboy]

Well that is a bit of a tilting result. Great performance from Ovill. Had he shown a bit more conviction in the middle rounds he would have taken it. Hopefully he gets the rematch.

[McGlashan]

Frank Warren has a cracking card on BoxNation this Saturday. Terry Flanagan defends his lightweight title, Liam Smith bids to become the first Smith brother to win a world title and the 2 main undercard fights look very promising.

Over on Sky Frankie Gavin is out of the Sam Eggington clash on October 17th.

Frankie says he feels a bit run down.

Fury Klitschko has been rescheduled for Nov 28th yet Oct 24th is still pay per view with the Brook Chaves mismatch as a headliner. 2 weeks out and there's barely anything on the undercard bar an American club fighter versus this man:

Like them or loathe them the Eubank's have mass mainstream appeal.

On the brightside Eddie Hearn gave an interview saying this fight could be finalised within 2 weeks.

We should probably take that with a pinch of salt.

Whats peoples take on GGG v Lemieux?

[McGlashan]

Whats peoples take on GGG v Lemieux?

It's much the same as the general consensus that Lemiuex gets smashed, it's only really a matter of when.

I'm kinda looking forward to Fonfara Cleverly more as it'll be a closer bout.

[Bazzaboy]

GGG inside 6. Lemieux has been hyped up in recent days to try and make the fight look competitive. It's not.

[fatcatstu]

This is a superb video, which shows where GGG gets his unreal power from.

He will win tomorrow, if Macklin lasted 11 rounds with hi, then Lemieux may go the distance, but its hard to see.

I know I probably shouldn't but I kinda like Clev tonight. Last chance saloon for him. Fonfara is a good solid all rounder but is being given too much credit for beating Junior. That said there are obviously question marks over Clev mentally since the Kovalev battering.
