    You know, if there's good odds on Townend I reckon that he could cause an upset. He was a banger at 130, not sure he's carried his power up to 135 tho. If he has and he can work ritson to the body, there's a chance he could cause an upset. Ritson doesn't like body shots.

    Decent fight that, the Spaniard is a live underdog. He just KO'd an 18-0 Ukranian prospect in the guys back yard.

    2/10 from me.

    Was going to give it a 3 but watching Cheeseman getting blattered was uncomfortable, and Sky trying to justify it by going on about bravery and heart caused me to issue a point deduction.

    Adam Smith openly admits Cheeseman card wasn't good enough......
    Average fan on British Boxing @ BN24 thinks it was just fine LOL

    No wonder Eddie is killing it, no standards needed....

    Smith also said that Sky would have probably tried to pick up Degale vs Eubank (as a PPV) if they had known that AJ wasn't fighting in April and no Khan vs Brook

    Degale vs Eubank

    6.5/10

    Sterling vs Summers was poor.
    Nihell against the journeyman was uninspiring.
    Selby overcame some early adversity to get a decent win (but boy was it dull).
    Joyce was extremely disappointing and equally as unexciting.
    The main event had its moments but JD spoilt it with his constant holding. It threatened to spark in to life a few times.

    I'd have to give it a 5/10. Main event really didnt kick off like I thought it would.

    Undercard didn't make up for it either.

    rest of my bets came in to be fair and i did really well but that would have been a clean sweep if he stopped him in 1-3.

    I'd have it 6. I enjoyed the main event but agreed Degale ruined a potential war - don't blame him because he would have been badly hurt if he didn't hold.

    Selby v Douglas was pretty boring although it had it's moments.

    I thought the Joyce-Stiverne fight exceeded all expectations, although that's not to say it was a good fight. I thought it was interesting when Stiverne kept landing flush single shots but when it was clear they had no impact it turned into a boring one-sided beatdown.

    I pity anyone who paid for that.

    £19.95. An absolute riddy of a price.
