    In a final eliminator for Loma's soon to be WBO championship vs Daud Yordan 38-3 (26 KOs), supposedly for the Usyk Bellew card which makes sense being in Manchester.

    His last fight was diabolical on the AJ Parker card and I can only see this be the same way, never heard of the guy but seems he can punch a bit maybe he can KO him that be pretty funny.

    Ridiculous this has been made for the WBO when it looks like Garcia is probably gonna vacate the IBF which would be much more realistic.

    Surely we cannot see Crolla v lomachenko! What a pointless fight.

    Crolla is done earnt a few quid had a nice little run . His last fight was very close against a nobody ignoring the sky bias and shocking judging he looked pretty average!

    So long as you don't start copying anything else he does, i.e. being unable to speak in anything other than that growling, dramatic corporate Sky voice all while admiring the contents of Johnny Nelson's underpants and becoming a serial killer on the side.

    It’s a WBA eliminator not WBO and it’s a decent scrap, there was talks of Yordan fighting Linares for the wba “regular” lightweight title before Linares moved up too 140

    The unranked Crolla getting an eliminator? He's ranked by everyone but the WBO...

    Always opens press conferences with the same shite as well. For this Manchester card.
    'Well isn't it wonderful to be back here in Manchester, a fantastic fight City and host of some great fights in the past. We've has David Haye vs John Ruiz, Anthony Crolla twice against the great Jorge Linares. We've had Froch Groves 1, arguably the biggest controversy we've seen in some years. And of course, who could forget, Ricky Hatton vs Kostya Tszyu, a real I was there moment'

    'And now we bring this, Tony Bellew, proves the doubters wrong time and time again'...etc etc, can't be bothered typing any more. I can't stand him.

    Hearn should feed Crolla to Ritson - it’s time he retired. The Burns and previous fights was both absolute dog muck. Eddie has done a fine job with him considering his limited ability and got him some good paydays.

    That's all you need to be, in order to be a hero in the british scene.

    Be a lovely guy, say you tried your best, and say ''it just wasn't my night'' and you can get away with producing garbage and being an absolute shithouse here in the uk.

    You only have to look at the likes of Dave Allen, Tommy Coyle and Scott Quigg to see that.

    "Masher" Dodd too, with his WBA interim Cornflakes belt.
