    Easy win for Ruiz. Let's get him in against Dillian Whyte!

    Your right. At first I thought it might be a good thing as I'm fed up of most of the production teams and I thought Hearn will put in some of the analysts and presenters that we prefer but we the more I think of it they will probably end up dancing to the MR tune.

    Amazingly yes it is. Presumably they're living off subscribers who don't remember to cancel a subscription once they no longer use it.

    Anyone who works for Hearn will have to stick to the narratives mate.

    It became part of the BT Sport subscription a few years ago but was basically left to die, and last year just before COVID hit it became part of the Premier Sports subscription, I think it’s Premier who are pumping the money in to it as all the fights are also on a main Premier Sport channels.

    Would have been a lot happier if Ruiz fought Charles Martin who looks to be in half decent shape and actually seems to have the renewed desire you need to be competitive at Gatekeeper/ fringe World level, whereas Chris 'Man Tits' Arreola is absolutely shot to pieces.

    The Arreola who lost to Stiverne would have a snow ball in hells chance of beating Ruiz, this Arreola will be lucky to finish the ring walk without having a coronary.

    It was after high level talks in the boozer that the Premier Sport/Boxnation gang decided to add this bout to their schedule. There is supposed to be a meeting in an unspecified boozer later this week to discuss whether or not they will purchase Taylor v Ramirez for the UK/Ireland market. Stay tuned.

    Ruiz looks in good shape and this is an easy fight for him. I imagine he’ll have 3 of these level fights before lobbying for a big one - Ruiz vs Wilder would be a good one for next year.
