    Great analysis mate and hard to argue with much of that. Would however say that im not convinced Rios hit as hard as is being made out though, as out of proporation and entirely unfounded as comparing fighters power is John Murray going 9 or 10, can't remember which, said that Mitchell hits harder.

    Still great great weekend which I can't wait for.

    Thanks.

    Mitchell is probably more precise and crisper with his punches but Brandon is more about bludgeoning you with volume and then taking you out with bombs once you show weakness.

    Murray’s face post Rios fight was a mess.

    I'm putting some cash down on an accumulator. Anthony Joshua, Luke Campell, Manny Pacquiao, Stephan Smith, Martin Murray all to win. I should get half decent odds for that and I am very confident in all of these results.

    As for Froch vs. Groves I fancy Froch to win but I am not betting on it as I dislike him.

    You get the Pacquiao fight as part of the PPV don't you? good little show this by Eddie.

    Rios is massively over rated in my opinion and I don't like his personality either. He is Kevin Mitchell's level with an iron chin in my opinion and this is Manny Pacquiao he is up against.

    I wonder how Zou Shimming will look?

    About 1 billion people will be looking out for him

    Both will be a mismatch i reckon but Pacquio Rios will be a more entertaining one so i'd have to go for that

    If I could only watch one? It's Froch v Groves for me.
    Hell, I'm looking forward to Gradovich v Dib rematch more than Pac v Rios.

    Pac / Rios just got a bit more interesting with the Roach vs Garcia / Ariza gym exchange, needles to say Ariza's already had his say over on the scene!
