Okay... Here goes nothing...

Wardley, DEC, Close
Opetai, KO, Mid
Inoue, DEC, Clear
Teraji, DEC, Clear
Olascuaga, DEC, Clear

...and the most important of all:

Beterbiev, KO, Late x 5

To be clear, I still think Dmitry hands Artur his first loss, but this is too good to resist. Bivol will no doubt want to play this one as safe as possible, and I see him using that excellent timing and distance to keep Artur hitting the reset button. He's not dumb enough to trade with Artur, but then again Artur is smart enough to force it. We'll see. I think Beterbiev's best chance is to work on Bivol's body and let it pay dividends for later in the fight, or hope Bivol accidentally inflicts a cut so it brings out the crimson nightmare who stopped Marcus Browne.

Hurry up, Saturday!

You're gonna allow multipliers on Beterbiev?! Geez. I was gonna pick Bivol but...

Them's the rules man. I genuinely am unable to decide on this fight but I know I got a x5 burning a hole in my pocket so.....

Yeah I've already been gently chided by my fellow CREW and probably it should have been included instead of Massey Vs Opetaia, but I kinda wanted to split the fights evenly between Riyadh and Tokyo, also had an awareness that some folks might get caught out by the timezone.... Of course nothing to do with Massey living about 5 mins walk from me....

Lol ok then. Best of luck to One Smack Jack this weekend.
