    Quarter finals lads...drawn out proper, fifa style. I wrote the names on a piece of kitchen roll...toilet paper is a premium, Olivia drew them out. This is the quarters...official!!! Parker edged Hunter to make it to the quarters. It was a landslide really for Fury, Joshua, Wilder and Whyte. Dubois made a fist of it but ultimately it just came too soon for Dubois. Ruiz and Ortiz was neck and neck...Ruiz doesn’t really have a neck but he edged what he did have against the man who’s older than Highlander, Ortiz. So we have the final 8. Try to forget about previous fights against each other, think of styles.


    Parker v Povetkin

    Usyk v Whyte

    Fury v Ruiz

    Wilder v Joshua

    Parker (W) v Povetkin
    Parker’s superior gas tank allows him to outwork Povetkin and nick the decision.

    Usyk (W) v Whyte
    Usyk stays away from trouble and boxes the socks off Whyte to win a clear UD

    Fury (W) v Ruiz
    Fury drops and knocks out and unmotivated and slovenly Ruiz, who can no longer get motivated since the big money from the AJ fights.

    Wilder v Joshua (W)
    AJ to knock Wilder out in mid rounds after being dropped himself.


    I am assuming that Whyte v Joshua is meant to be Wilder v Joshua because you already have Whyte v Usyk

    Parker W v Povetkin

    Parker wins just due to having more in the gas tank
    Parkers so average it hurts


    Usyk W v Whyte

    Usyk wins this bit has to prevent a fight which Dillian will go for, similar to how he did againt Parker
    Points win but Whyte will have his moments

    Fury W v Ruiz

    12 round shut out
    Taylor made for Fury

    Wilder v Joshua W

    Wilder is gonna just get beat up again
    Although AJ will fight on the back foot more than Fury recently did

    Parker v Povetkin Very tough, probably side with Parker purley on the fact that Povetkin is past it.

    Usyk v Whyte Usyk wide UD

    Fury v Ruiz Fury wide UD

    Wilder v Joshua Wilder KO

    Parker - Too young and fit, I see a 116-112 type of win
    Whyte - Usyk - Tough one as we haven’t seen Usyk in with anyone this big who can punch. Whyte is game I will give him that but he does tire quickly. Usyk PTS.
    Fury - Ruiz - Stylistically a bad match up for Andy. Fury doesn’t put a dent in him but wins comfortably, 118-110
    AJ - Wilder - Wilder KO for me. AJ too cautious and Wilder clips him. Good chance AJ stops Wilder, pick em fight.

    Parker v Povetkin (UD) - Povetkin takes this, he is the more consistent and practised fighter and still feels he has something left to prove, Joe just doesn't give enough to get him over the line. Injuries and inactivity seem to have caught up with him as he struggles to stay relevant at the top of the division.

    Usyk (UD) v Whyte - Wide UD with some moments of brilliance although Whyte shows tremendous heart going the distance leaving Usyk with swelling under each eye. When asked who he wants to fight next in the tournament he turns and looks towards camera responding only with the word "ALL".

    Fury v Ruiz (KO) - Massive upset here as Ruiz comes in tremendous shape shifting 10kg under new trainer Ben Davison. Fury has had a fallout with brother Shane and rumours coming out of camp were not good. Pictures emerge of him out partying with new head coach Ricky Hatton only days before the fight. He starts slow and looks sluggish with Ruiz showing tremendous hand speed and combinations on the inside. He catches Fury behind the ear and he goes down awkwardly doing the splits. There is no fairy tale ending this time as Fury takes a knee and fails to make the count, he shakes his head looking bemused as if to blame the ref but the truth is he was done and had no answers. Ruiz is the heavyweight king once again as him and his team go ballistic. Tremendous performance and comeback. John Fury is seen absolutely wrecking the BT sports studio before the live feed is cut and rumours are circulating on twitter that Paul Dempsey has been rushed to hospital after an 'incident' during filming at Here East studio's.

    Wilder v Joshua (KO) - Wilder takes advantage catching Joshua early who goes down from a swinging overhand right. Wilder is doing his celebration moonwalk but Joshua gets up and is saved from further windmill attack by the bell. Joshua takes the next 10 rounds off and when Wilder starts to gas he finds a massive barrage of punches that force the referee to stop the fight. Wilder blames a voodoo curse put on him by former foe Bermaine Stiverne and demands an immediate rematch.
