Why do you all hate Kahn? He is one of the most entertaining fighters out there, its never boring watching him fight
What is going on with the Alexander fight in December? If he lost that then this fight surely wouldn't be on
Team Khan Statement
Team Khan would like to dispel recent reports that Amir Khan has pulled out of a potential match-up against Devon Alexander on December 7th, taking up a fight against Floyd Mayweather in May of next year instead.
Contrary to this story, Amir Khan is currently in training camp in San Francisco with the aim of fighting again in December against Alexander once an agreement can be reached.

I don't think it's a case of hating Khan....just that this is such a trivial fight. Tells him he needs to earn it then just randomly gives it him. Mayweathers just gonna milk his final fights after the Canelo fight.
You can get odds of nearly 1/3 on Wladamir tonight, he should be about 1/30 in my opinion.
Booked to go to Vegas next year. We fly back the day before possible Khan-Mayweather fight.

When is Wlad due to fight?
BBC reckon Haye, Fury, Chisora will be there so expect a punch up or something.
Klitschko fight was very boring. Luke Campbell just had his second fight although it is hard to judge a fighter in his first couple of fights he really looks a exciting prospect.
I didn't watch this, but has either Klitschko had an interesting fight the past few years? Even the highly hyped Haye fight was a total, one-sided bore.
It was more like a wrestling fight to be honest, so much holding & pushing down.
Anthony Joshua about to make his debut for anybody interested. Kevin Mitchell just dismantled a Mexican fighter. Scott Quigg to come as well.
excited for this Quigg fight, I think he has so much potential.
What Klitchko been on already? feck. Watched all the rest though.
Well that was over quickly! Joshua wins debut in 1 round.
Surprise! Tub o'lard flops in 1. £££ wagon rolling.
True. He looks very composed though, with the right management he could be a star in a very poor division thats about to get poorer once the last Klitschko retires.
At least he looks as if he cold be a contender unlike Audley et al. Good luck to the kid.
Rumours that Lennox Lewis is negotiating a fight worth potentially $100 million (
) with the Klitschko camp.
Apparently they offered $50 million for him to return but he wants double and they're considering it! He would like to fight Wladimir but Vitali wants the fight to happen with him. If a deal can be reached, Lewis says he'll be ready in 6 months.
It's a bit sad that the best fight they can now find for the Klitschkos is against someone who retired a decade ago. Still, I'd pay to watch it!

What's Tyson Fury been up to then?
I really like Bradley tonight @ 11/8
I'd take a good look at those odds too, Bradley has the kind of fighting style which could really unsettle Marquez, and for the first time in his last 2 or so fights he won't be fighting a renowned big puncher.
The media are going on about Orlando Cruz being the first openly gay boxer. I wonder if it is easier for a boxer to come out than say a footballer. One is hard as feck and the other will get barracked mercifully from the terraces I guess.

My guess would be that it is a hell of a lot easier as its not a team sport so he doesn't have to rely on the approval or co-operation of any team-mates. He simply has to turn up and do his job, if his opponent wants to make an issue of it then that's more fuel for the fire.
Bradley / JMM is the big one tonight but watch out for Lomachenko on the undercard. He won the featherweight gold medal in Beijing 2008 and he won the lightweight Olympic gold last year and his amateur record is a quite amazing 396-1. He's going to be big.
Now!
Yep got Lomachenko on, good stuff, Knock down already via body.
V impressive stuff
fecking odd knockout. What was with that roll on the floor?
Impressive power from Lomachenko however a couple of questions about how he handles pressure. Very good debut but he's people would be stupid right now to put him in with a genuine world champ at that weight.
Body shot, he looked in agony.
anyone got a stream for the Bradley match?
Rare you see a body shot knockdown though. Last one I remember was Eubank against Collins.
Good debut agreed but yep title fight in second bout would be mental.
Cruz getting battered here.
Unusual but not rare there have been a few that I can remember the last being Hatton during his comeback fight.
Close fight the Bradley one.
I think he's ahead if anything...feck all in it though
