    it was for the WBO interim which would’ve been elevated to actual world title as it was Canelo holding the belt (after beating Beefy) but then embarking on new adventures further up the weight chain.

    If that is correct it would explain him getting knocked down by jabs, but surely they shouldn't have let him in the ring

    Bad management from himself and his team.

    Just to add I don’t think fighters should be allowed to cut that much. He should be fighting at, at least 168 instead of trying to be a weight bully.

    If true - You have to wonder if Junior knew about this through Harlem....

    I know they weren't training / sparring at the same time for obvious reasons... but he'd still surely have some insight.

    Fair enough but i wouldnt say Williams was ill prepared for it. It was seen as a good scrap 50/50 scrap. Williams performed brilliantly and got pulled out om cuts. You could say the tide was turning but we will never know.

    I’m not buying it. Zero chat before it or after it in all group chats or even in general conversation with friends, colleagues etc. not even seen much reaction on social media.

    A lot of MMA fighters cut 20lbs in fight week
    Plus Williams had an extra 1.5 months to get in shape.

    Really pathetic excuse if you ask me

    It looks like Sky is going to do fine without Matchroom Boxing.

    Great ratings and great that Eubank Jr. creates so much attention. We need that.

    Good to be back. Main thought on this show was give me Jom Tones Wales premier tribute act belting out Delilah over Sweet Caroline all day long.

    Sky are absolute scammers still. I wouldn’t pay 20 pence to watch Shields v Marshall never mind 20 quid.
