    Thoughts lads? Any betting slips? Good fight for me, if Haney is the goods he wont be leaving a stone unturned with Jorge. I'm in no way picking Linares, but I actually wouldn't be surprised at an upset.

    Also Brits on the undercard. Ramla Ali featuring, Chantelle Cameron defending her WBC and Martin J Ward in a world title final eliminator.

    Will see how it goes regarding staying up. Good fight that Haney should take comfortably enough, but a good test

    Linares has got more miles on the clock than a megabus. A few years ago he'd have been a match for this version of Haney but I think he will lose a 116-110 kind of fight.

    Yup, but not as the main trainer.

    Haney is very talented. The only problem is he’s possibly in the most competitive division in the sport right now. Teo is a lot bigger, stronger. You’ve got Ryan Garcia, Loma, Tank possibly moving up. You’ve got to be very special to win titles and hold on to them with that competition - which I think just falls short of (being special).

    If his head grows any more into a double whopper, he is in danger of being eaten by Andy Ruiz Jnr if he ever lands in the US
