    I like Yarde but until he is in with someone like Burton or Bugglioni it's hard to say just how good he is
    I like yarde as well think he beats both burton and buglioni just now.dont think he would trouble many of the top 10 in the world just yet.that was only his 14th fight so still early in his career.

    Farcical that this idiot has turned up 6 pound over weight.. should have his purse halved..

    Can't win the title now probably get some kind of fine/deduction always amazes me that professional athletes can get their weight wrong.

    I was watching a bit of the build up yesterday and his team are saying that they weren’t aware of the rules about the weigh in. I’ve no idea what they meant by that. I’m looking forward to a bit of verbals between Selby and Warrington after the fight.

    the British board of control make you be a certain weight by certain dates throughout the camp so they know you've made the weight safely, he was about 9 pounds over at that point, I'm not sure all governing bodies have the same rule so perhaps he didn't know and was going to crash it all in the last couple of days

    I thought it must be something like that. Frank Warren was really annoyed about it.

    I’ve watched a fair bit of the build up to the degale fight, and it must be a bit of a concern that he was told his shoulder won’t be 100% for another few months. Truax probably won’t be be good enough to trouble him though.

    I’ve got Truax by one round going into the last round. Degale needs a big round here.

    I’ve got that dead level. Good fight whowever wins.

    Too close to call. Think Truax might have nicked it but you often really have to win a world title away from home so draw or close for Degale wouldn't shock me.

    I can’t argue with that decision, although the last judge giving it to Truax by four rounds was a bit out.

    How wrong was I? 4 rounds and 3 rounds for Truax seems wide to me though.

    Back to the drawing board for Degale now, not in the Super Series and not sure he'll be on Groves or Eubanks radar without a world title to bring to the table. I've never really take to Degale so can't say I'm too upset tbh.

    Suppose it depends on how the super series goes, for the loser of Groves V Eubank then Degale will probably still be the biggest payday for all involved unless he has a rematch clause

    Degale’s biggest problem now is that he isn’t in the super series. He might get a rematch, but even if he wins he’s not going to get a fight that’s going to capture the imagination.

    Anyone watching the Evander Holyfield documentary on BT sports. What a brilliant fighter he was. Growing up he was my favourite heavyweight fighter, in a time that we were spoiled for choice in the heavyweight division. It really was a golden time for boxing as we had the ultra competitive super middleweight division over here.

    Comfortable win for Billy Joe Saunders again last night/this morning.

    When he is in the mood and fit then he's close to the best boxer Britain currently has for me. He's called out Golovkin again and I'd like to see him get his chance.

    Finally got round to watching this after a rough weekend, that was some performance and like you say when he's on it then he's really on it, Ingle seems like a great match for him

    Amir Khan signed with matchroom today. He is an entertaining fighter to watch even if he is a gob*****.

    I'm glad about this to be honest, hope he gets some big fights under Hearn.

    Word over here for several weeks is that the Parker v Joshua fight will be announced soon, probably for the end of March.

    Parker en route to London now apparently. Maybe an announcement this week.

    Slightly concerning that he’s not even training for the fight as yet...

    Will try for tickets again, every previous AJ fight we've missed out.

    What an opportunity for Joe Parker. Biggest night of his life, I hope he does it.

    He'll have to step up big time on his last couple of performances if he's going to be competitive.

    I think his style will suit Joshua and can see a late stoppage or wide points.
