    I think you massively overrate him..

    We will see in time. Hardly a tough division he's going into though. Could argue cruiserweight was tougher.

    Hope Lee Selby gets banjoed tonight

    Like watching paint dry him..

    God forbid he wins, and he fights Teo next... he’ll get destroyed..

    I think he could cause plenty of the big lads problems. He hits hard. It’s all about how he takes a hit. Same as Olexander. I’ve punted for Usyk in either round 9 or 10 so I’m saying that nice and early.

    Women’s boxing flying. I think that was just the PC line they’re peddling. It’s awful.

    Without a doubt. Tonight I’d say loss on pints fairly wide if judges are honest.

    Thank fùck that’s over, pure scutter. I know it’s bad but I find it hard to watch any women’s boxing that doesn’t feature Katie.

    The depth of talent just doesn't seem to be there in the womens divisions - it's going to take years for it to build (if it ever does!).

    Yes.

    I know you can only beat what is front of you, but the competition she has faced looked really weak. Some, dreadful!

    The only decent well matched fight on the card this. Think Selby might be able to sneak it but should be close.

    ffs, I saw the small lad with the smeg jogging towards the ring and I said "jaysus, Usyk looks really small". I am an embarrassment.

    Also I backed Chisora at 4/1. So there may be further embarrassment tonight.

    Kambosos looks very small.

    Can't imagine either of these two giving Lopez much trouble

    Kambosos looks like a Bantamweight. His ink must be heavy.

    They should chuck the winner in with Anthony Crolla for a final final eliminator.
