    Good step up for Cheeseman. Think he comes through with shining colours.

    Ball vs Richards is a good fight. I can’t pick between them. Ball’s the favourite but I’m edging towards Richards. He’s shown a bit of power since he stepped up. This is only Ball’s second fight in over a year so that makes you question his dedication.

    Cash stepping up for the commonwealth. I like Cash, for food fundamentals, maybe lacks that bit of power to make him a serious contender at world level but interesting to see how he gets on tonight. These Africans are tough as nails and fit as ****. Won’t be easy for him.

    Looking forward to watching Cheeseman. I like him! A good, competetive fight.

    Very risky fight for Cheeseman, he needs to put it on Garcia and not faff about like he did with Byfield.

    I’m a lot more excited by Alvarez vs Kovalev in the early hours.

    Okolie is fighting Tamas Lodi instead, that guy is a bit of a glass cannon. Small chance the octopus gets squished.

    It’s all about Alvarez-Kovalev II for me too. I think Kovalev is going to throw the kitchen sink at Alvarez and try to get him out early.

    I really hope Cheeseman wins to set up the Fowler match if Fowler also wins his next one. I foresee a dodgy Matchroom decision there...

    Richards to KO Ball.

    I think Alvarez has Kovalev's number and stops him again, and possibly retires him. Kovalev's stamina is questionable, so is his mental state. Fighting a guy that's already stopped him could affect confidence, add to that all his legal trouble going on in his life. I get the feeling this doesn't end well for the Krusher.

    I've never saw Sergio Garcia fight tbh so I don't know what to expect from him. If it goes the distance I just hope the judging is fair. Cheeseman is quite entertaining to watch and Garcia comes with a decent reputation so I'm looking forward to this one.

    I think Richards beats Ball but not overly confident. Is this Jake Ball's first fight with Dominic Ingle?

    Cheeseman is a great fighter but I think we may get an upset tonight. Both like to come forward so should be good tearup while it lasts. Garcia will have the great Sergio Martinez in his corner.

    I’m picking Richards to beat ball via ko. Ball got stopped early against jj mcdonagh (eubank jrs last victim) and he hasn’t really done much since apart from move to the ingles. I still think the chin is there to be cracked and Richards can get the job done.

    Alvarez to be Kovalev again, I think krusher is done
