    Why does Dan look so yellow?

    Hey Ishy, been here all week. Just watching FNF in the hotel room. Off to film the parade tomorrow and hopefully catch up with Matt before getting down to the Garden nice and early. Got to say, Macklin seems bang on.

    Think thats the least of Big Dan's problems :D

    Hopefully Holt can show a bit of that punching power. Coleman isn't the hardest to find so hopefully it makes a good fight.

    Yep, Macklin looks right up for it but it's a massive ask for him. Martinez is 37 though and with his style things could unravel overnight, them reflexes might just slow down all of a sudden.

    Style wise, to me Kendall Holt v Randall Bailey would be a really good fight.

    No doubt Martinez is a class act but to me that ko of Williams reminded me of Nunn v Kalambay - a bit of a freak perfect shot.

    You reckon Ish?;)

    I think Macklin will make Martinez work for a few rounds but get stopped 4-6.

    Maybe a shortened version of Hatton-Mayweather where theres no Plan B for the come forward fighter against the better boxer.

    Big round for Holt. Think Coleman was lucky those ropes were there at the start and that body shot was great. Coleman is leaving himself open doing some stupid stuff.

    Good hook to the body from Holt.

    Holt is great fun to watch, especially when he's in the mood

    Colemans defence is awful. He is leaving gaps just because he can't be arsed keeping his gloves up.

    Holt's clearly a puncher but Colman doesn't want to be there.
