    Who do you think will win this one? I think Donovan will knock the stuffing out of Crocker and put him over.

    The first was quite entertaining and the stuff Billy Nelson was coming out with before and after was priceless. Seems a lot more humble this time.

    Crocker claimed he was coming into the fight. He was getting absolutely hammered.

    Don't like saying this about any boxer but Crocker actually quit the last time - he was looking for a way out after 3 or 4 rounds.

    Fairly obvious, who will win, going by last time. Farcical that it’s for an alphabet belt!

    Be a lively night at Windsor Park, I was asked if I wanted to go.

    No chance.

    Donovan will walk through Crocker, will win inside the distance and early my call.

    It is going to take a huge upturn in the performance of Crocker to win this fight.

    Donovan looked on a different level in the first fight and I can see a stoppage by the end of round 8.

    Donovan will be way more controlled in how he tries to beat Crocker, which I think he will and inside the distance.

    If he looks back at the first fight, it was a fight he knows he should of won, everyone can debate 1 of the warnings at least, but its about also having slightly more nous in knowing he can and will hurt Crocker.

    Beginning to get a buzz for the all nighter of boxing on Saturday with 3 back to back cards from Belfast, Vegas and Nagoya.

    Could be one of the greatest days of boxing.

    I want Crocker to win. But I think it's very unlikely. Donovan is at least world level, whereas Crocker looks British level from what I have seen.

    The problem is Inoue's US promoter is Top Rank and they don't have a tv deal so there's no where to show it. Old Bob is in big trouble with a huge stable of fighters and no broadcaster. There's been hints for months , DAZN, a cable broadcaster giving him 12 shows a year non exclusively, Netflix, Prime etc but so far nothing. No one appears willing to fit the bill. I blame the Saudis. Boxers want way to much money and broadcasters aren't willing to pay up. I think DAZN have thought why pay for an exclusive deal with a man in his 90s when they can hold fire and let Matchroom and Golden Boy, maybe even Queensbury, pick up his fighters for free.
