    There were some interesting figures reported for domestic PPVs. Timmy Tool Time has had two fights that exceeded 100k. The Horndog fight we knew about but also the Bowyn Morgan fight immediately following pulled more than 100k. That featured Gal v Mark Hunt so that might of had something to do with it. Let's not forget that George's fight pulled 40,000 through the gate so there's his 100k right there. I expect the rematch to go ahead in Melbourne. Particularly given the Tool Train's fight with Charlo will likely be in the US.

    Interesting move by Fast Eddie to match up Liam Paro v Brock Jarvis but I think a clever one. It's a good fight & a decent test for both. Winner to get a shot at Josh Taylor? We could be in for a festival of "Undisputed" fights.

    Jarvis vs Paro is a very good fight both vulnerable & with Jarvis constantly pressing leaves plenty of counter opportunities.
    Expect Huni to do the business vs Goodall but you never know how much he has improved in his 12 months stateside.
    Stevie spark with a good victory, onwards & upwards for him at his weight
    Still stunned at the Lucas Browne Ko victory but very happy for him hopefully he can monetise this late run in his career
    I heard the GKJ fight was struggling to sell out not sure if it did but it doesn't need a 40 thousand arena, nothing wrong with having a 20 thousand seat place there's plenty around to host the fight. I would run it back in Sydney.
    Tszyu vs charlo is happening fast, hopefully it's not a blow-out, if the Charlo from castano 2 fight comes to action I see it ending early.

    Paro-Jarvis?!?!

    I thought I read that incorrectly.

    Weird matchmaking at first glance considering where they are in their respective careers but interesting clash of styles.

    I thought the GKJ fight would do a little better on the PPV sales but really can't be to surprised by that given his relative obscurity not long ago.

    That is still an phenomenal crowd to get through the gate.

    Should be a good fight tonight. I hear Eddie Hearn is going to be in attendance.

    Nope. He's been out for 12 months, has had injuries, local sparring & had his house shot up last week. Should win but wouldn't write off the other bloke. Good puncher & has been sparring with world class opposition for 12 months. Wouldn't take short odds on the result.

    Coming back from an early knock down to earn a Majority Draw against France...
    Hold Denmark to a split draw in a boring affair where nobody landed any punches and score a late KO against Tunisia to advance to second round.

    Not sure Huni v Goodall is PPV worthy, what's the price?
