    Not a lot of a buzz around this one, probably because of the aftermath of the Fury and Wilder fight.
    Obviously Chocalatito is not what he was but he is certainly a live dog. Whats everyone thinking Yafain keeps his impressive record going, or chocolatito has enough in him to derail the train?

    I hope Chocolito turns back the clock and does a proper number on Yafai, who is obviously hoping a very faded and war torn fighter turns up.

    Does anyone know what time the card starts tonight, assuming it’s on Sky?

    Yeah im hoping for a good version of Gonazales too. Hope its a good one, Mikey fighting above his weight isn't that interesting. Parker in an exhibition bout isnt screaming watch me either.

    Love fights like this one. Gonzalez at his best is two levels above yafai. But I feel Gonzalez just in the slide and yafai is naturally slightly bigger man. That makes this a 50/50 fight. Million pounds in a suitcase I'd go yafai close points win.

    Thought Parker was a little reckless in that fight, didn’t respect the opponents power and got a cut for his troubles. Showed a nice jab at times but Winters was significantly smaller and shouldn’t have been getting near him. Beautiful finish but needs to use that great jab of his, more.
