    I'm really looking forward to Kelly v Williamson.

    I watched the Avenesyan fight last night and Kelly did look extremely sharp early doors but couldn't really make a dent in Avenesyan who just hounded him with pressure until Kelly wilted.

    Now Williamson does carry power but it all comes down to whether he can apply the sort of sustained and educated pressure that a top operator like Ava was able to do.... against a Josh Kelly who will be carrying a little more pop at 154.

    If he can't, then he could very well be chasing shadows whilst being lit up, particularly in the first 6 rounds.

    Not very high on both and Kelly was always an overrated hype job but my gut tells me that he'll dominate Williamson tonight.

    Really could be a fight of two halves this.

    I'd forgotten this was coming up. I really enjoy when Boxing is on Channel 5, particularly as I think it unites so many people in the UK who love the sport but who may not have subscriptions to the various channels that normally cover it. :)

    I think this one is difficult to call. I like Kelly but I'm edging towards Williamson here, think he's going to outlast Josh's first half dominance and get to him down the stretch.

    Domestically yes but Estrada Choco is guaranteed to be close thriller of a fight.

    Agree with every point you've made here, I was actually surprised in that Avenesyan fight that the towel came in so quickly.....JK got back up to his feet and whilst bloodied seemed to look ok in the eyes and legs....that's not to say I don't think he would've eventually got JK out of there but felt he couldv'e still fought on.

    Tonight it will come down to how much pressure Williamson is willing to put on JK and if he can sustain that throughout the rounds.....Size and power v Skill and speed.

    Williamson is only proven at domestic level and Kelly I think is something like half a level above that. For this reason I'm picking Kelly to surprise many and beat Williamson convincingly.

    I don't think it'd be a surprise if Kelly won. A lot of people see this as either Williamson KO or Kelly on points.

    Bookies are pricing this one right.

    Looking forward to this one. Willaimson's come in for some criticism for his performances against Cartwright and Benitez but both men fought really well on the night - as is their prerogative in a British title bout. I think it's going to go to the scorecards with Williamson nicking it.

    I'm leaning towards Kelly over the distance with a few gut checks down the straight

    That fight is hidden away to 20-30 subscribers on Deadzone and firmly out of sight, out of mind for the British Public.
