    Smith also seems to have a knack of chinning them as well after being completely outboxed.

    Riakpore looks like he's struggling at this weight

    Don’t get these tactics from Riakporhe. He’s a rangey fighter with a great jab and good punch power but is fighting on the inside. Baffling.

    Opetai will absolutely slaughter the winner of this.

    I wonder what would be more enjoyable, watching Riakporhe in the ring with Okolie or tipping ground up glass and salt into your eye.

    I'm leaning towards the latter I think.

    It would be really nice if Sky let us hear from the corners.

    For a broadcaster so many think are the gold standard, they are shocking with some of the absolute basics of boxing broadcasting.

    What will fans want to see between rounds?

    - Adverts
    - Frazer Clarke and Adam Azim
    - The boxers being given instructions

    Sky clearly believe in the first two. Jesus wept.

    Massively underwhelmed by Riakporhe. Looks like he’s just going to be outworked to a clear UD loss.

    Thought both Okolie and Riakporhe would wipe out CBS.

    So far he has barely lost a round against both in 1.5 fights

    Certainly not a boxing crowd. It's terrible. Like watching a Saudi card.

    Huge mismatch. Though I think Opetaia is miles ahead of everyone at the weight

    I've got the TalkSport "watch-along" commentary going on YouTube instead of Sky; they've had the corners audio, swearing and all.
