    Which fights are you most interested in seeing at the o2? I really like the Blackwell Ryder fight. Lots of good fights mind.

    Blackwell vs Ryder will be a good s****, pick of them all for me is the Mitchell vs Linares fight and I am looking forward to seeing Selby vs Gradovich too as I love watching Selby fight, just hope he doesn't do all that showing off garbage that he tends to do though.

    I think selby will win on points and I see Mitchell stopping linares. A cracking bill which matchroom needed really after their poor last couple of shows.

    All quality fights. Looking forward to all of them but Cardle vs. Evans is a very good under the radar fight.

    i agree, cardle is ok but i expect the class of evans to shine through. i think he was killing himself to make super feather and he will beat cardle on points but possibly stop him on cuts late

    Can get good odds on Evans. I think 1/3 is far too short for cardle, really is a 50/50 that one.

    First bill I can remember we're I am truly looking forward to every fight on bill. Realistically all those fights could headline a decent quality bill themselves. The British matchups at domestic level will be as good as world title fights. Most fights on bills are 50/50s or 60/40s can't wait

    I've heard a few boxers say that Cardle is impossible to hit in sparring and hasn't shown close to his full potential yet. He also seems to be sitting down on his punches more in his last couple.

    I do rate Evans though very slick boxer. I expect a close Cardle points victory.

    The headline fight may be the biggest mismatch on the card, as I would say it's probably a 90% chance brook will win

    Apart from Joshua-Johnson which is like 99.9% in favour of AJ.

    Agree with that, I actually cannot in a million years see Brook or Joshua losing, good fights though. But all the rest of the fights are 50/50s 60/40 fights IMO

    It's ridiculous how much hate there is for Joshua. Fury fought Johnson in his 20th fight and Chisora fought him in his 24th and at the time everyone thought Johnson was a good test for both fighters.

    Joshua takes him on in his 12th fight and all people can do is be negative about it. It's embarrassing.

    In all honesty with the exception of Porter is Brooks resume any better than Gavins?

    Calling it a 99.99% fight in favour of Joshua is pathetic.
