Middleweight John Duddy (27-1, 17 KOs) returned to the win column with an eight round unanimous decision over Jorge Munoz (21-4, 13 KOs). Scores were 80-73 and 79-73 twice. Duddy had a bloodied nose early on in the fight. There were no knockdowns.

Anyone see the super six fights on sat night, abraham looked the biz, albeit in his own back yard. he knocked taylor spark out, cant see him fighting again. carl froch couldnt get near dirrell but direll wouldnt get involved in a scrap at all. cant see kessler worrying about any of them. ???

If you have Sky Sports subscription and broadband from Sky you can watch it on Sky Player.

Lads, what about the betting this weekends boxing feast, some good odds looking at Sky Sports website.  I fancy it like this is truth be told:

Valuev to win in rounds 1-12 = 9/2
-Sexton 9/4 to win (ridiculous price, Rogie is 1/3 who LOST the last time, Sexton completely out-boxed him but got caught with one punch that nearly KO'ed him, still the better boxer and will be more weary this time)
-McCloskey 1/10 (cert, no money in it, maybe to him to stop your man, you get better odds)

Thoughts / comments??
Beer, now there's a temporary solution!!!

I think Rogie can win. If he is to win it won't go the distance. He'll come out all guns blazing as his power caused Sexton bother the last time when Rogan decided to fight. Though them odds on Sexton could be too good to turn down saying as he did out box him the last time.

Id love to see Rogie win but Sexton is a hell of a tasty price if you ask me.  there is no denying he is the classier boxer.  He may be a wee bit smarter this time in his approach to Rogie and with all the training camp changes in Rogie and the fact the fight is a month later than 1st expected, it could be tough for him.

Valuev weighed in there exactly 7 stone heavier than Haye!!

Both boxers will have improved. I read today that Rogan has said he's boxing better since he got the trapped nerve in his shoulder sorted. Also, Rogan won't be as stupid again and will box better tactically than the last fight. Should be a tasty fight though!

That's the thing though, Rogan has very little "boxing" in him, he is a brawler and if that doesent work he doesent really have a Plan B.
