Kell Brook on now. Looks a class apart after the first round, but early days.
Zerafa not going away and he’s landing a few as well.
Not too impressed with Brook tonight- looks slow and too open- will probably still win but not the Special One of old
Something doesn’t seem right about Brook tonight. He should still win but will need a massive improvement if he is to step up again.
Brook took a few big shots there. He doesn’t look in much trouble, but against a better fighter he won’t get away with that. Fair play to Zerafa though, he’s making a fight of it.
Brook has had two bad eye socket fractures in the last few years which must prey on his mind - not a great performance tonight
loma the legend .
one of the all time greats.
boxing at its purest best , bring on "bud " crawford . what a test that'll be.
Didn’t see the fight but wasn’t Brook struggling to make the weight? Would that have had an effect on him?
Brook made the weight with ease. I think he tried to come in too low to show Khan he could make 147. He just looked slow at times.
I doubt we will ever see Loma v Crawford. Loma is fighting at 135lbs and I doubt we will see him at 140 any time soon.Quote:

Couple of fights on tonight- Canelo v Fielding is an interesting one, think Rocky is very underrated in general but will be a huge underdog tonight - would love him to beat Canelo and he does have the ability to do so but it will be really tough
I see the WBO crowned their 1st 'global' champion last night. So we now have the IBO, IBF, WBC, WBA Regular, WBA Super, WBO World and WBO Global as well as the Ring Champion. I'm not sure what the difference is between world and global tbh.
Give it 5 years and we'll have at least 3 'world champions' posting on this thread.
You forgot lineal champ as well.Quote:

Depends on what you are after, think Warren has the better overall card tonight and Frampton Warrington will be a good fight but I'm in the mood for carnage and all out war so at this stage I'm thinking I will go with the Whyte ChisoraQuote:

That’s my thoughts. Frampton fight is a far higher quality but the Whyte fight has the potential to be another slugfest with controversy.Quote:

The big heavyweights for me.
Warrington battering Frampton so far
Great fight so far with the heavyweights.
Watching both and both too close to call. Warrington was all over Frampton early doors but Carl starting to pick his shots well now and getting some success. Chisora and Whyte is a proper scrap and it’s really tight, one big shot could end it.
Great fight Warrington the clear winner for me
That was sensational, both fighters played their part but Warrington was the deserved winner.
Boom. Good night Del Boy.
Shame as I think Chisora was ahead, even with the docked points, but that was some counter by Whyte.
Just watched the Mayweather 'fight'. What a farce.
He danced about for a bit, his opponent had a swing and a miss that I could have dodged, there were 3 knockdowns then the towel came in.
$9M for that. Nice work if you can get it.
He will love all these folk from other sports wanting to have a pop at him. Masses of money to be made and it’s the equivalent of Real Madrid v Dundee.Quote:

Another no lose fight for Khan. Fair play to his team for organising it.Quote:
