    I’m sick of hearing Macklin week in week out if I’m honest they should change to co commentators every week , or is thst something to do with the bubble ?

    Respect to Katie’s opponent also admitting she should have lost but I still don’t think she lost.

    Persoon seemed to land more in most rounds to me, I didn't think Taylor boxed very well at all, she was decent in patches but then she would get overwhelmed again and again.

    Most of Persoons shots missed. Katie landed much more clean work over fight as a whole.

    Thought Taylor deserved the nod this time but she went through absolute attrition once again. Credit to both fighters. I’m sick to death of the biased commentary and narrative from Sky, it’s getting worse and worse. Persoon had a lot of success but very little credit during the fight.

    Can anyone explain why Hearn has done this fight without a crowd but has said he can’t do Chisora v Usyk without fans?

    I had her winning by 2 points, but it’s got to be the Serrano fight and then out for Taylor. Long amateur career and her age catching up on the legs and her engine now.

    Gut feeling, we will see an aged Povetkin tonight. Whyte via stoppage, round 9. Adam Smith creams his pants

    Sky likely wouldn’t allow that fight on PPV as Chisora is on a different career trajectory to Whyte- he’d be the underdog against Usyk for sure.

    More to do with Macklin being Sky’s golden boy at the moment than anything else. Andy Clarke was there one week to commentate, so no reason they couldn’t have changed co-comm.

    I don’t think Sky would care if they thought it would make them money.
