Canelo v Smith was at an earlier time to help British audiences, and talk of Canelo v BJS being at midnight UK time too.

Both promoted by Matchroom/Dazn with two British fighters involved. They’re chasing subscribers so it makes sense.Quote:

Looking forward to it, I'm expecting good things from him tonightQuote:

Outstanding and a great interview after the fight. He’d be made welcome at ER.
The differences in him now are incredible, great to see him and Josh bounce off each other, and for him to now be on the undercard in Vegas (like Josh was under Frampton) is incredible.
Looks a different fighter.
Stronger, more fluid and considered strikes to head and body. Always enjoyed his fights but he previously had a tendency to smother his work.
Looking the real deal now for sure.
Gutted Vegas isn’t looking like a realistic option as that would be one hell of a trip!
Lawrence Okolie is the new Cruiserweight world champion.
He's a really good fighter, surely going to move up to heavyweight with his height??Quote:

Dillian Whyte takes Povetkin out in four rounds.
Povetkins legs were gone for entire fight. Looked like Bambi on ice.
Don't think he would have lasted 12 rounds if he was the only person in the ring, weekend at bernies
How many fans were they letting in
Think I heard them say 502 fans last night.Quote:

Tough ask for Carl, tall rangy Southpaw. If he wins, he will become the first ever three weight world champion from the island of Ireland.
Huge night for Frampton tonight, he’ll need to get in close early otherwise it’ll be a long night against a man far taller than him.
Hope Frampton can pull this off but I'm just not sure he's as good as he was.
He needs to find a way inside early doors and try to rough Herring up.
Think that's how it's unfortunately playing out after the first two, Frampton isn't as good as he once was, hopefully he's just starting slowQuote:
