I got absolutely wasted out on the town last night, so a quiet night in jam packed with boxing is exactly what I need.
Just ordered myself a Biryani, and I'm going to get a 15" pizza around 11.
Good luck to all involved tonight!!!Comment

Okay guys first fight of the night!
VS 
James DeGale 7(5)-0-0.................Carl Dilks 14(5)-2-0
British Super-middleweight eliminator match
Your pick for this fight?Olympic Gold medallist DeGale only made the weight at the second attempt and faces Carl Dilks in a British Super-middleweight eliminator match.
This is shaping up to be a surprisingly good fight due to the animosity between “Chunky” and Dilks, having previously looked like a routine warm-up match for the up and coming prospect.
At the end of this battle lies a shot at the British title as DeGale continues his fast-track to the big time. Yet his opponent Dilks looks very much up for it, describing this as a career making fight. DeGale poured scorn on his rival saying he was going to knock out Dilks in the sixth round, which of course infuriated the Liverpudlian as the press conference nearly saw things come to early blows.
Everybody knows about DeGale, he is a good mover, fast hands and good head movement among other things, but his biggest weakness is over confidence. The Olympian has only boxed 20 professional rounds in his career yet you’d think by the way he acts he had boxed 200. In Dilks he has an opponent who is solid and has fought three times as many rounds as the Londoner.
DeGale is expecting a walk in the park but Dilks is going to make life as difficult and uncomfortable for the MBE as he can and there could well be fireworks by the end of this one.Comment
