    Sky/HBO coverage starts in 2 and half hours (2am)

    We've got 3 undercard fights before the main event:

    Said Ouali-Hector Saldivia
    Cornelius Lock-Daniel Ponce De Leon
    Saul Alvarez-Jose Cotto

    All 3 fights are 10 rounders. On paper, Alvarez-Cotto seems the best fight.

    By the time the main event starts ESB will probably have crashed :lol:

    Anyone going for the upset and picking Shane?

    And finally, who are you supporting?

    :bbb

    I'm gonna stay up.

    I'm torn between both fighters...but i'm gonna stick a few quid on Sugar Shane because i feel a upset can happen tonight. I'm not fussed who wins' although i suppose for Boxing it be nice to see Mayweather-Pacquiao. I can see this being a tight fight with judges picking what they prefer aggression or skills.

    There will be people who will Sky+ it and watch it in the morning. Oldies like Icemax for example :yep

    Who's everyone rooting for?

    I hope Shane wins but think Floyd wins quite comfortably on points.

    I'm going for it. I know all the reasons Floyd 'should' win, but I have a suspicion he's slowed down a little and his previous sharpness isn't what it was. I think this will be a very close fight - probably a snoozer.

    I shall be up till silly o'clock!

    It never feels the same though, even if you have avoided the result.

    That's got to be the consensus view. I'd lose money on a Mosely win, but it wouldn't sting at all.

    I'm determined to stay awake. Failed miserably for Berto/Quintana. ESB will almost certainly crash though.

    Yep, I'm staying up, wouldnt miss it

    Watching the 24/7s now for build

    Going for Sugar of course, he's my favourite current fighter. I hope at least he pushes Floyd close.
