Seems every fight Hearn makes is a world title eliminator

[teddycanyon]

is it going to be any easier for Chilemba to win a decision?

Bellew-Chilemba II is a waste of time imo. Boring fight which I think Chilemba wins but probably gets another draw.

[Jim Tom]

Chilemba will win a lot more convincingly this time around. I hope he got paid good money to fight as well.

Looks like Chilemba couldn't refuse to fight on the Froch/Kessler undercard since he was adamant he didn't want the rematch in the UK.

Excellent, I've got some paint I need to watch drying before the main event.

Don't you mean you've the CL final to watch before the main event?

I'm actually happy.

Contrary to most, I enjoyed the first fight. I thought Chilemba's still and slickness was impressive.

I look forward to being in attendance for the rematch.
