    Yarde vs Arthur 3 was a lot more entertaining than Buatsi vs Smith and Beterbiev vs Bivol 2 imo.

    Callum Smith vs Buatsi was crazy good. That'll be hard to beat.

    CEJ-Benn so far. The last quarter of that fight was pure violence.

    Eubank Jr vs Benn was only good from 8 rounds onwards. The first 7 rounds were dull.

    Beterbiev-Bivol and C Smith-Buatsi were good all the way through!

    Inoue Cardenas #1,, that was fought at a very high level. The skill level of Eubank and Benn wasn't that high

    Your opinion! Eubank-Benn only heated up at the end. Smith Buatsi I was glued to the screen from start to finish
