With a bit of Lewis and Tyson mixed in. World's his lobster now and I hope Wlad calls it a day then the doors open for the other big fights.

Canelo v Chavez jr on Sunday morning. Think it could be a belter

Should be a good one and someone OK at that weight at last for the tank that is Alvarez . Parker is allegedly live on Sky Sports 3 about 10.30/11am on Saturday morning so might be worth a look.

Crap that and I've never really got the fuss about Parker he's in for a right shock when he fights some genuine top level guys. Hard to judge on that though as the late replacement only had survival in mind from the first bell. They've also sparred hundreds of rounds together and it's never a classic when that happens.

Bellew still convinced he can get a shot at Wilder but I think that's bolux. I like Belew as a fighter but no way should he queue jump just because he's a bigger name that the likes of Whyte or Chisora etc.

I'd prefer to see him in with Parker I think he's a chance but Wilder will smash him he knows this and is just after a pay day. Piss me off fights like this and it's about time Wilder took on another elite HW as well.

Josh Warrington doesn't impress me . Yes he draws a hattonesque following but his failings to stop opponents like last night who has been stopped by the elite is a massive concern and he showed last night his weakness with body punches. I had the fight albeit stellaed as the first judge a draw.

Not seen it yet but share the same feelings on Warrington he's just a ticket seller and Frank Warren is always all over those types. Everyone saying he robbed that fight although Martinez was a step up to be fair.

Sam Eggington on the on the other hand looks like he could be the real deal.

Off to Brook v Spence Saturday night and expecting fireworks. Hard to call this as a lot talk Spence up as the next big thing but then again every Yank that puts on a pair of gloves is and they still haven't got use to the idea England is the home of Boxing now :cool:

Hoping for a Calzaghe v Lacey type destruction.
