Price is actually a decent matchup. Price obviously wins every round early but Allen is durable and capable of taking out Price when he gases. Chisora who they also mentioned as a possible opponent results in a UD for Del Boy

Forgot about Pricey, and was just thinking Eddie would want to keep Del out of the way after tonight

[McGlashan]

Just ball park, but what sort of purse would Chisora have got for tonight?

£100kish at a guess

Not much left over then, once he's paid a % to his Manager, Promotor, trainer, cost of camp and so on.

He's got enough money to skip the open workout and pay a crowd member £500 to take his place.

I'll be shocked if it's not Allen Price headling a regular Saturday fight night. Tonight's London crowd gave him a standing ovation and he desperately needs to keep fighting flawed big lumps.

Yeah, makes sense.

Winner gets Del on another fight night?

Your guess is as good as mine on that one. I can tell you Matchroom's heavyweight matchmaking has been exceptional.

AJ's entire career. Making Micheal Hunter a thing. Finding someone Dave Allen can beat (he's every bit as limited as before). Creating numerous pay pare views.

Now Oscar Rivas. Small unbeaten powerhouse, a touch heavy on his feet, and one dimensional. He'll look good for a bit whilst having almost no chance of winning over 12.

LOL @ AJ being first one out when talking about matchmaking.

Suppose you can look at the strength of opponents Tyson and Deontay have fought and AJ has had a much more sheltered career than both of them

I don't think Michael Hunter would be a thing if he hadn't been set to fight in the states, or you think they'd have brought him over here, too?

Can't really blame them for Allen, don't think anybody thinks he's good, even Dave himself.

I'd not heard of him until they were talking there after the fight. Spend a score on a round of shots, so for a night of punch-ups I'm always in.

What time we think Khan walks? ~4am?

[McGlashan]

What time we think Khan walks? ~4am?

4:30 was mentioned.

[McGlashan]

It's a it late but here we go. Hopefully this makes sense 

AJ's first 15 fight development fights were perfect match making. The comparisons being previous Olympian medalists in Price and Audley.

Finding a big stiff lump like Ustinov that Hunter could stop was good matchmaking. As was judging when Lucas Browne was ready to be pushed over the edge.

In hindsight the likes of the African fella and Patera were always wrong for Eggington and Ritson. That's bad match making.

[Marky147]

Yeah, I see what you mean there.

I know you and Bazza don't like the Matchroom mob which is half the fun

I just look at all their careers, and can't work out how he gets so much shit about who he has fought. Is it just  because they haven't done it when we want to?

If you listen to Fury fans, the 18 months from when he beat Klitschko, he went from one of the GOATs, to being ready for his bus pass, and everyone else AJ has fought are useless, too.

Likewise, you'd think Wilder had been fighting end bosses from all the Rocky movies if you listen to Nestor & the Wilder crew.

I'm not that worried about it, because they'll all fight within the next few years. Well, that's what my presumption is, anyway.

Pot committed now, so have to stay up

[McGlashan]

And breathe. Awaiting the refs ruling is far worse than sweating the scorecards.

Nice one.

[McGlashan]

Khan could happily retire on that note. Not officially though, why do that when you could keep Kell Brook dangling on a bit longer.

Yeh well, I bet a few folk loaded up on TC before going to bed instead of thinking they could get some on at a bigger price after 1 or 2 rounds 

[Marky147]

Get a few million more in the sky, and dip out.

I didn't have a bet in it, and glad

Ortiz’s camp saying they got lowballed by Edward.

It’s now impossible for him to put on a fight that will be remotely competitive. This surely can’t do great PPV numbers over here given it’s on US time.
