I'd say AJ will be happy to have fought & won a different type of fight & go the distance.

Dunno whether it was the lighter weight or a slower pace but his conditioning looked much better than it has. Didn't gas much.

Canelo v GGG rematch is off. Is Spike really going to get the gig? Sure Eubank Jr bate the head off him. I'd fear for him in against triple G.
That was never a square ball!!

Thought for sure it was going to go ahead if not in Nevada I thought somewhere else but I suppose the venue would have been contracted in as well.... looks dead now. Would be doubtful if it happens ever now Golovkin is getting on but there is alot of money to be made so still a good chance.
Spike Sullivan has been goin on about GGG for years I was sure he'd never get the chance as he's a couple of grades below, and somehow here he is..... It'll be back to the beatin a lump of meat days for Golovkin tho.

James Degale scrapped through a fight last night against Caleb Truax, had the decision not gone his way I really think he would have been forced into hanging up the gloves.

Poor performance from the referee.

Led with his head in both the first round and second round, resulting in head butts to Truax. He should have been warned about it.  He reaped what he sowed in the third round as Truax, came off the better in another clash of heads and it resulted in a nasty cut to degale's right eye which hampered his vision for the rest of the fight. 

Took him a few rounds to come to grips with the cut and despite a point deduction in the latter rounds for use of his shoulder in a clench which seemed dubious enough.

Still awarded a unanimous decision with two Judge score cards having degale ahead by the minimum while another went to the CJ Ross school of judging awarding the fight to degale 117-110.

Groves or Smith would not be too scared about what they would have seen from last nights performance.  Degale would need to up it considerably if he is to meet the winner of the World Series of boxing final.

Cummings beat. Seems a nice fella but just isn't top class.

The other fella has a few big shots in him. It would only be a big shot that would win him it but he has a wee bit of ability in him so needs watched!
