    I know virtually nothing about women’s boxing, some might say I know nothing about boxing full stop but for some reason I think Taylor’s going to lose on Saturday. New weight division, tough looking opponent, life and death fight last time, I think she’s due one. I know she’s going to have to be knocked out or she’ll get the decision ( within reason ) and maybe I’m just trying to make a fight I have almost no interest in, interesting. It would good though, wouldn’t it, particularly with Sky advertising Taylor when they never feature boxing in their ‘ the month ahead ‘ trailers, PPV excluded.

    Yo @OscarDeLaHoya how come no UK tv broadcasters have picked up Canelo v Kovalev? Eddie and Sky have said they don’t want it and BT aren’t paying for it? That’s criminal right?! Tell Eddie and Sky to dig in there wallets.

    I actually think she's on he decline, she seems to tire quite a lot in the later rounds now. She does use a lot of movement and she isnt a youngster anymore.

    Don't know much about her opponent but I can see her losing sooner rather than later.

    I’m just trying to think of a worse Matchroom card off the top of my head and I’m really struggling. Is this the worst Matchroom card of all time?

    Apparently this girl (also) lost against Persoon back in 2016, losing 90-99, 90-99 & 91-98 on scorecards which might give an idea of her level.

    Just looked up the card on boxrec. It really is a stinker. Don’t think I’ll bother fighting the missus for the remote for this one.

    Not going to hate on Taylor who actually seems like a cool girl but women's boxing sucks man, it really does. See Clarissa Shields who has no skills, none. But is probably women's p4p #1 for simply clubbing obviously far less testosterone filled women into submission

    Don't usually comment on Womens boxing tbh, but Taylor will win as long as it goes to the scorecards. She is the Golden goose that lay the golden eggs £££. She would need to get knocked out to lose. The last fight result was a disgrace tbh.

    Felix Cash Vs Jack Cullen is a decent fight, I'll probably switch off afterwards.
