    Same, watched it this morning. Always like to see Khan get beat. Quitting from a punch to the leg though, didn't see that one coming. Hope the Brook fight happens, but it's sickening when you just know Hearn will * it up, pretend it's something it ain't and stick it on PPV.

    Yeah I know exactly what you're talking about. I actually thought he was trying to impress some burd when it happened. The whole fight, he was an arrogant *. Would love to see him whooped. Brought down a notch or two

    I've got zero and I mean zero interest in the Brook/Khan fight now..

    Brook is seriously washed up. Khan could probably beat him with speed but both are long past it..

    Aye confidence is fine. Taking the *. Swaggering about like a big time Charlie dancing in between rounds. Chin out and arms down and thinking you're the bollocks because the guy is a diddy with no power....I cannot take..

    Thing is the boy was actually catching him on the button at time's. Anyone with power stepping up will utterly destroy him..

    When will he step up though ? Last time he had chance, he shat it.

    He chose Crawford because he's never going to get a title shot again and he knows if he was to lose to Kell Brook first then Crawford wouldn't of wanted to fight him. The Kell Brook fight is always there for Khan whenever he wants it, but he knows he would lose to Brook and I don't think his pride could take losing to Kell Brook who he hates.

    Ah cool thanks, that makes a lot more sense now.

    Finding a decent match seems to be a problem in boxing right now because managers and promoters are trying to bleed dry a boxers potential before they fight anyone dangerous.

    Maybe it's always been like that I dunno, might just be cause everything is televised now.

    Good match up that..

    Still don't know how good Dubois is yet..

    Joe Joyce is very robotic but has some engine and can take a punch. He'll deffo fancy this..

    Good match up..

    Gorman in the mix after as well..

    Boy's class..

    This BT bill has bored me to tears. Hopefully the Dubois main event will be good here..

    Dubois was unconvincing tonight. Got slightly wobbled a couple of times.

    Aye he could get hurt if he's fast-tracked..

    Exciting prospect though..

    Joe Joyce is excruciating and thick as * being interviewed by the way. Got the vibe he was half trying to swerve the Dubois fight and kept talking about options/his age/wanting to win a world title fight soon. Hmmm..

    Watched the Prograis fight there. Destroyed Relikh in a way nobody else had. Hope Taylor gets past Barynchk and gets to the final, it'll be a great fight.
    Can't for this WBSS card in three weeks time, Taylor and Inoue, and I'll be there.

    Would quite fancy it myself if i wasn’t doing the Edinburgh half marathon the week after but I seen the ringside prices are mental. I thought £150 was rough for the Ricky burns fights over the years
