    What are your predictions for?

    Kell Brook vs Carson Jones - Could be a real gutcheck for Kell Brook, I think Jones is gonna bring pressure, pressure and more pressure, I expect him to test Brook's chin a few times and Brook will have to dig deep to turn the fight around and grind out a hard fought points win or a late stoppage.

    Derry Mathews vs Gavin Rees - This could also be a great fight, Derry is on a high after the Crolla win but I think Rees is just a different level to Crolla, I expect a real tear up but think Rees will take over after 6 rounds and score a late stoppage.

    Grzegorz Proksa vs Kerry Hope - Think Proksa overlooked Hope last time and should have made amends for that, he's much better than that last fight showed and also the cut played against him, I still had him winning the previous fight and think he'll win decisively here with a mid round stoppage.

    Wladimir Klitschko vs Tony Thompson - Quite a tricky fight for Wladimir last time out when he met Thompson in 2008 before he got the stoppage, I think this one goes the distance and Wladimir wins a wide UD

    Tyson Fury vs Vinny Maddalone - Bit of a **** fight by all accounts, hopefully it will be a bit of a fun tear up ala Pajkic/Firtha whilst Fury continues to go nowhere.

    Kell Brook vs Carson Jones - Got a feeling Kell will look really impressive here and just completely dominate this fight, Jones isn't very good and Brook simply has too much skill to get troubled. Early stoppage. TKO4

    Derry Mathews vs Gavin Rees - Great fight this and a tough one to call. Last fight I strongly favored Rees, but Matthews was very good against Crolla and if he brings that to the ring it may be a tough test. However think Rees will have a bit too much and gain a late stoppage. TKO10

    Grzegorz Proksa vs Kerry Hope - Proksa really overlooked him last time and even with that I thought he won pretty comfortably. Can't see him being as under-prepared as last time and think he will gain a stoppage midway through. Proksa TKO6

    Wladimir Klitschko vs Tony Thompson - I've got a feeling Thompson will surprise a few people here and give Wlad a bit of a test, Wlad will come through but not as easily as people think. UD116-112

    Tyson Fury vs Vinny Maddalone - Crap fight, don't care

    Kell Brook to win on Pts, I think it could be very close, maybe even a little bit controversial.

    Rees to win by late stoppage

    Proska to win by stoppage middle rounds

    Klitschko to win a boring UD, I might need waking up halfway through this one

    And as much as I hope Fury loses he should get to Maddalone quickly. KO inside 3 rounds.

    He not entitled to his opinion? Wasn't that ridiculous anyway.

    I reckon Brook wide UD.

    Rees wide UD.

    Proksa in a close decision.

    Klitshcko with a routine KO around the 7/8th round

    and Fury within 4 rounds.
