Anthony Joshua vs. Eric Molina & Dillian Whyte vs. Dereck Chisora RBR.

Now watch Whyte/Chisora be a stinker lol.

 

Burton never had the power to finish the job. So Buglioni was always in with a chance.

 

Burton looked skinny as **** at the weigh in and during the fight. Bet he wishes there was a 180lb division.

 

Hearn should make Buglioni vs Stieglitz for EBU LHW stap next.

 

Well I'm either a lucky charm for Buglioni or bad luck for Burton, I've been out all day Christmas shopping with my very slow walking wife who told me "it will only take a couple of hours".... anyway 6 hours later I walk in, the Burton Vs Buglinion fight going in to the last round and the commentary team say Burton is ahead even with the KD in the round before.

Then bang, Buglioni lands a looping shot and Burton is done.

From what I can gather it was an entertaining fight, I'm a little gutted I missed it now.

 

Callum Smith (21-0, 16 KO) vs. Luke Blackledge (22-2-2, 7 KO); 12 RDS @ Super Middleweight

 

Did that fight make this card PPV worthy? I know neither of these guys are names, but if I paid for a PPV and got that kind of fight each time with an underdog who was obviously far less skilled making a comeback I'd be satisfied. Far more satisfied than the Pac/Vargas card.

 

he does does look far more comfortable at this weight. No style suits being weight drained but his certainly doesnt!

 

Smith vs Blackledge.
I expect Smith to bang him out within 5 rounds.

 

I agree, it could be quicker.

 

This will be over within 4 rounds. Smith is just too good for Blackledge.

 

Blackledge was KO'd by Fielding so I don't expect Smith to have any trouble putting him away.

 

Not at all. Frankie Gavin and Sam Eggington arguably put on a better fight and that was on regular Sky. We have had similar and far more entertaining fights over the years on regular Sky so definitely no.

However if Concepcion-Yafai, Whyte-Chisora and Quigg-Cayetano can at least be 75% as entertaining as that fight, I don't think anybody who paid for it can complain.

 

I like blackledge but I can see him getting tonked here. He has a super attritional style which I don't think can be effective at this level. The fact that he was dropped by a journeyman in his last fight doesn't bode well either.

 

I hope Blackledge puts up a little bit of a fight.
