    Worth the watch. Surprisingly good s****, especially considering the level these guys fight on.

    Wlad sparring with Helenius and Granat for Fury. Good choices and good experience for them.

    My god they are awful.

    Kreiskott is now WBU champion. I have a feeling he will face Wilder next in an unification fight.

    They're club fighters.... Can't deny that it wasn't a fun action packed fight. I respect how Kreiskott has been able to turn his career around and achieve a winning record. But he's not a top 100 HW... Even though he's ranked as such on Boxrec for the first time in his career. Would be a good opponent for Wallin, or Granat though.

    They just couldn't set up a fight since Teper-Ouatah. That Italian has two early stoppage losses, Rill should get him out of there.

    Wlad vs Fury postponed. Looking for a late November date.

    Chisora vs Marcelo Luiz Nascimento tomorrow.

    Chisora weighed in at almost career highest weight: 260 pounds.

    Jarrell Miller is facing his first real test on 23 October when he faces Akhror Muralimov. Good 50/50 fight.

    Disappointing that Chisora is facing a no hoper. Would have loved to see a somewhat competitive fight like Chisora Dimitrenko.

    Woww. That's a very good match up. Muralimov has the slight edge for me.

    IBFs number 4 Charles Martin (21-0-1) gonna fight Vicent Sandez tonight sept 26 for WBO NABO heavyweight title.

    What do the experts think of him ? Looked good against cuban Glendy Hernandez two years ago. Last 11 fights all won by k.o

    Damn that's a good fight.... But not what I call a 50/50. Leaning towards Muralimov here, more like 80/20 in his favor.

    It's just about staying active at this point... Fights with the likes of Ustinov, Helenius/Teper winner are on the horizon, would you rather he sat on his ass instead of keeping busy?
