    Riyadh Card (22nd)

    I think this may be the first card in a while where I am interested in every single fight. Even the Callum Smith fight.

    On that, which do you guys think will be the best fight, and which do you think will be the weakest?

      The weakest fight figures to be the Stevenson fight. He's literally the only man on the card facing an opponent who isn't ranked in the top 8 of their respective divisions by the TBRB. It's a mismatch, pure and simple.

        The best fight will probably be DDD vs Parker or Beef vs Bivol 2 if Bivol fights in the pocket.

        Weakest? Buatsi vs Smith, doesn't interest me.

          I agree, and it's likely to be the snooziest as well.

          However, there is that chance - that slight chance - that Schofield upsets the apple cart.

            Is there, though? You high on Kid? Shakur "fights" are guaranteed to be snoozers.

              I think Shakur is an exceptional talent, but boring. I think Schofield could be an exceptional talent, we don't really know yet, but at least he has some entertainment value.

              Shakur wins, it'll be a snoozer, but that slight whiff of "what if" guarantees I'll watch.

                I'm about 90% sure Schofield isn't an exceptional talent. I might even consider picking Shakur by stoppage. Kid has flaws for days from what I've seen.

                  I tip my hat to him just for stepping up
                  Not many boxers do that nowadays

                    I'm still disappointed in De Los Santos for helping set a division record for least punches thrown in a world title fight. Hopefully Kid will at least try to keep it entertaining.
