    i dont think Perez can ko Johnson. He lasted the 12 against the better klitschko ( imo ) I do think Perez beats him though over 3. Unless Johnson increases his workrate dramatically this format wont suit him. Think he beats all the rest over 12 though

    No value in doing Perez on Paddy Power cant beleive that he is that price to win it out right maybe when Casey and Roggie won it they got burnt badly and now making Perez favourite seems a bit of a no go for me. I would rather put money on Mosley getting a upset win over Pacman more value.

    jesus christ please tell me you went to the eye and ear to get it seen to! That's a pretty freak injury I'd imagine. Did he catch you with the inside of the glove or a loose bit of tape or what?

    Big blow to the lineup with Oquendo and Gomez falling out. The replacements are not in the same league (understandably so, no slur on Matchroom there). Johnson will be hard to beat IMO. World-class jab and world title experience, he can dig with the right hand too.

    Tye Fields is frigging awful but isn't he like 7 foot tall or something? Wouldn't fancy taking a punch off him, but if Sprott can get inside and rough him up then he can win. Airich could be a sneaky one. Really raw but whacks like a mule - always handy in these tournaments.

    Grergory Tony was touted for a while. Did a bit of sparring in Haye's camps but his one loss doesn't sit too well on the old slate, so not too hot on his chances. Helenius is a bit of a beast though to be fair.

    Hi Bam bam I'm so **** at boxing I couldn't tell you whether it was the corner of the glove or not but he caught me in with a combo. They were sound lads and it was all clean but I should have pointed out it's only a nick not a proper cut. I think I'm going to ask my trainer to look at it just in case if it was a proper tear I'd freak out but it's just a tiny nick. Still though was just thinking how bad it might be if it was on the actual pupil?

    Not bad at all. I suffered a cut on the eye before too, it was pretty bad, so the eye specialist chap said. On the pupil, on the white, doesn't matter, it's all protected by the cornea anyways. The pupil is below that.
