        LOL, indeed.

        About the only thing is that boxing is the theater of the unknown and there is always the chance that something dramatic might happen.

        Odds are Brook is going to get KOed, this is Khan/Canelo all over again

          Other fighters on the card are Kid Galahad, Calum & Paul Smith.

          Not really a great undercard. Hearn usually has a good main support fight but i think he spent a lot on the main event.

          That said, there is some good fights like Haskins v Hall for those who play attention to the British domestic scene (although Haskins is a world champ), those guys don't like each other.

          Also John Riel Casimero v Charlie Edwards for the IBF Flyweight title might be interesting as Edwards has only had 8 fights.
          I like the way Callum Smith fights (only saw his last fight). He and Eubank Jr are the only British fighters I'm impressed with, so far. Sounds like a good event. I'll make sure to watch all the fights.

          Thanks again.

            Thank you. I don't really know any of those guys, but I'll tune in tomorrow from the go. Enjoy.

                How did he struggle with weight when actual numbers show him making the weight with extreme ease?

                People who struggle with weight come in right at the limit and have to get buck naked.

                I don't get how people are buying into this bull**** when not only is there no evidence for it, but these is irrefutable evidence that he did NOT struggle with the weight. 166 30 days out and 163 7 days out and 158.8 during weigh in on exact opposite of struggling.

                  It could be he lost too much weight. Or he lost too much weight too fast. But to argue that there isn't something wrong with him, i dunno. He seems legit out of it. And they say he isnt sick. So who knows.

                      Mundo (Callum Smith) is probably the most significant name there - a lot of people (myself included) think he has the goods to be one of the top dogs at SMW, though his opponent is nothing to write home about. Kid Galahad is unbeaten and rated by some but I ain't sold yet. There's Conor Benn - Nigel's kid, but he's pretty much a novice right now. Couple of other semi-decent names, but nothing major.
