    Great fight for Josh, I'm all for these kids progressing every fight like Lomachenko and on a much smaller scale Joe Joyce and Josh Taylor. If your a great amateur and especially if you've fought in the WBS you should be fast tracked, whats the point of padding out your record with 15-20 Journey men, really not learning anything. Robinson is a top 15 fighter so if Josh wins great if he losses he can come back.

    If Rob is in shape and focused + had good camp he should beat Kelly. He's pretty good. Kelly ducked Avanesyan for a reason. I think Rob beats Avanesyan. See the southpaw jabbing the dancers head off. Would like to see that clown showboating vs. Robinson lmao...won't end well. Let's see the weigh in today to confirm that or not.

    prospects wrongly get forgotten about after just one loss these days, look at Lewis Ritson.

    Kelly knocks him out. Robinson got a good beating from Dmitry Mikhaylenko, Stopped by Ugas.

    He went 10 with porter but took a beating vs ugas

    If Robinson is in good form this can give us an idea of how good kelly actually is

    Am I the only one who thinks he should call himself Sugar-Free Ray Robinson?

    Better inform yourself WHY he took a beating vs. Ugas. He had almost no prep for the fight & no camp and took it on short notice. His coach said he should not take the fight but he wanted. He feeled like he missed a lot of time because of a car accident and thought it would be his last chance. So he took a beatdown vs Ugas. Happens.

    And Robinson never fought Mikhaylenko ffs. What are you talking about? He beat Kavaliauskas two months ago but was robbed and got a draw (two judges had it a draw, one gave it 7-3 rounds to Ray).

    Ray for the win here! He's showing that showboating clown what boxing is about. Southpaw jab gonna do the work.

    Lewis can make it back, Great fighter who has to stop relying on his power and realise he has to box and pace himself at times.

    Apologies, he was meant to fight Mikhaylenko years back. didnt happen, robinson probably would have won then,. We shall see. Im fairly confident kelly can put it on him.

    So. Better put the Josh Kelly hype train flush down the toilet. He's a showboating clown with no power and questionable stamina and absolutely NO WILL to fight. Standing 2,5 minutes at the ropes in the corner throwing nothing. I have never seen something like this. And afterwards he tried to cry about the result and said in the UK he would have won...yeah, probably, because of even more corrupt judges. Clown!

    Yeah, i know he was a good amateur but more due to a weak generation. Look at the guys he fought in his amateur career, all those guys are overrated and looking average as pros. Kelly watched too many Mayweather fights in his youth.
