Fury v Chisora is shameful.

Doesn't he have to fight someone in the top-15 to hang onto the belt?

It's a voluntary, rather than a mandatory, so think he's ok. Wilder v Ruiz will get ordered next month as an eliminator.

He'll have to fight the winner of that at some point to keep the WBC. Unless I'm mistaken, which is quite likely.

Had a carpet burning a hole in my pocket from the Eubank refund, so going to buy a 60% Baby T-Shirt and got tickets in the lowerstand for a ton. Was planning to go to Vegas for the UFC, but staying this side of the pond now.

Shit fight, but might be the last time the walking contradiction fights in the UK.

Eddie out trying his damnedest to make sure the casuals think Conor is innocent this morning. Nice soft interview with a fellow DAZN employee at that.

I'm sure he'll give Jordan 5 minutes soon

Surprised he hasn't had a few weeks off, rather than doing Aus/Mexico.

Absolute chaos tonight!

Never known so many fights  on.

Had both my monitors going, and the TV in the office at one point

[McGlashan]

This is a good looking card on DAZN. If Bivol shines tonight I could see Canelo ducking the rematch.

[Marky147]

Thought it was a decent card, and Bivol really is very, very good.

Good performance from Cameron, too.

Barrett was doing well until he got hurt. I didn't check, but guessing he did something to his leg?

Miles too good. Bivol wants Beterbiev and that one is right up there at the top of my wishlist.

Bivol might as well chill until Summer then. He said he wanted to take a bit of time off, I think.

Beterbiev v Yarde after Xmas, and then they can sort him v Bivol for summer.

I'll prob go to the Yarde fight if it's in London, as I know that's where they planned it. Would imagine it'll be OVO or o2?

[McGlashan]

Happy days with good old Frank delivering the fight at Ovo. Plus that nice young Ben Shalom is giving CBS a pre xmas runout in Bournemouth.

Yeah, a bit close to the UFC for me, or I might have ventured up.

I had a look at CBS tickets over the weekend, but couldn't get accessible via the website, and decided I will just watch it in the house.

[McGlashan]

Eubank vs Liam Smith outs a little bit of close on the Benn shambles,  same night as the Yarde fight.

There's a couple of decent main events tonight as well. The main events may not clash given Warren's notoriously bad running times.

[Marky147]

Think the outcome of the hearing* is the only thing that'll do that, as they all still want to do it.

*whichever closed doors that is being done behind

Unfortunate for Parker, but hopefully Ryder gets that lumpy payday, and be nice if they could get Canelo over to London. Just don't let him go eating anywhere with Conor.

Whyte looks to have gone downhill quickly, and might as well just cash in on the AJ rubber match now, before he does get done in by someone shit.

[McGlashan]

It could possibly be Arbboy who pointed out Parker going soft after the AJ payday, well now it was Whyte's turn. Thought that was some under appreciated matchmaking getting an unbeaten opponent just limited enough to never get over the line, plus a name for Wardley who was ripe for the picking.

[Karabiner]

I missed the fight - wasn't expecting an early start.
