    Rose not looking great against Ribchev. I've never been sold on Rose think he's a nice lad but lacks the quality to be talked about at world level.

    Macklin in ring at 3.30-4am.

    Rose is massively overrated and has never impressed me. I've banged a fiver on rees to win in rounds 7 to 12.

    Rose had a chance to make his mark vs Alcine and he was very underwhelming.

    Will be another sacrificial lamb in the same mould as Purdy, Rees etc.

    This is an embarassing match up. It should not be wasting TV time. Put in a performance and then you can get it shown at the end of the show.

    Rose is pure technique as he lacks power. This will often lead to boring fights. He needs to choose when to put on a masterclass and when to try and push a fight to beat his opponent up with superior ability and skill. This is a fight where he should be putting on a masterclass and pushing the fight. If he lacks the stamina to push the fight and is also lacking in power then he'll struggle big time to move through the levels.

    Brian hasn't got the gears for the upper level. He's steady and can go up one gear for a short burst but he's not a guy who can really turn it on.

    European level may suit him due to the styles but Rabchenko batters him..

    Rose was poor there, fighting like he's a big puncher on the back foot when he has no power.

    Johnny's right.

    Interview was poor IMO. Back injury aside he made his mind up he wasn't stopping the lad before he entered ring. ''I won every round. 2 or 3 i may of lost''. IE. I didn't win every round...

    Alright skills mate, rose lacks power so his engine needs to be up there or he will struggle.

    Can't see Rose being on Sky for long with performances like that.
