    Chisora v Fury / Saunders v Eubank

    Anyone watching tonight?

    Looking forward to the Saunders v Eubank fight particularly. Really no idea who's going to win, Saunders has experience, has a strong amateur background and has fought infinitely better fighters as a pro but Eubank looks a bit special. Real 50/50 fight imo.

    As for the main event. Chisora looked in great shape at the weigh in. Weighed exactly what he weighed when he took Vitali Klitschko the full 12 rounds, a full 20lbs lighter than when he last fought Fury. Fury weighed in very heavy and refused to take his top off at the weigh in before his usual cringeworthy chat.

    Really hope Chisora gets the win.

    Bit late now but Boxnation is £10 a month with no minimum subscription so you can subscribe for 1 fight, pay a tenner then cancel after that month with no extra cost.

    A bit better from Eubanks, but he really needs to do much more.

    Eubanks needs a knock out.

    Eubank is better when being himself and not his dad. All he's got is the uppercut. Saunders for me.

    I openly admit that I'm no expert, but I felt Eubank won that. He dominated the later rounds in a way that Saunders did not do in the early rounds.

    In any event, I fell that Eubank will take more from that than Saunders will.

    On to the next one...can't see past Fury, but would be surprised to see him knock him out.

    Plug it into your router, and fix it up to your dish and away you go. People i know have had it over 3 years and its still going.

    Thanks, and you get all channels?

    Saunders won that well imo.

    Boxed smart early on and Eubank had success later because Billy had started to ease off knowing Eubank needed the KO.

    There really is no substitute for good amateur pedigree and a solid grounding as a pro. Saying you are the next Ray Leonard or Floyd Mayweather is one thing, proving it is another and Eubank is just another to learn that lesson painfully.

    And more than you get from your normal sky subscription, as well as box nation you get BT Sports Setanta and Setanta Ireland plus ESPN.

    I know they want to ease him in gently and do it the right way but I seriously think Joshua could easily spark Fury, this fight is everything that's wrong with the heavyweight division over recent years zzzzz
