    He does but a slim one for me..

    Still, it's intriguingly poised and ridiculously long overdue..

    Pacquiao been in training for weeks. * on floyds shoulder roll. Rematch already pretty much signed. Dont expect a mayweather shutout. The value is all with manny . Speed and southpaws trouble floyd hence the reason this fight happens now.

    At least they are finally boxing but its still quite * they never done it when they were both probably at their bests at least 2 if not 3/4/5 year ago. Its spoiled slightly with them being 36 and 38.

    Decent power by price, looks poor still and the opponent was pathetic..

    He's well off wanting a fight with Anthony Joshua or should be if he has any sense..

    I'd love Martin Murray to put on the performance of his life against GGG but I can't see past a golovkin stoppage within 6-8 or even before with his power..

    Boxing is actually the only sport I can think of where really really awful levels are shown on TV.

    Like some boxing is the equivalent of East Stirling Reserves playing 11 guys who've been plucked out a pub on a Saturday afternoon where you know East Stirling Reserves are going to win but its not even a contest and the level is absolute dire, you'd never see that bad a football teams competing on TV.

    Even if, as I expect, it's closer to the 10, it'll still be plenty time between both:50:

    Really hope Paul Smith pulls this off, he was excellent last time out..

    That was actually better to watch than 95% of boxing thats on TV. The two guys on Sky the now, how can they call this professional boxing and sport, I wouldn't watch them fighting in the street if I was walking past.

    Would be good to see Paul Smith get a deserved win tonight but I can't see it happening. Reckon Abraham will step it up a level compared to the first fight.
