So Mayweather looks like he is going to fight Berto in his "final" fight. Hardly sets the pulse racing and really highlights how frustrating the matchmaking has become in boxing. http://www.thesweetscience.com/news/articles/21149-source-mayweather-will-fight-berto-on-cbs

I wont miss Mayweather, he is a blight on the sport but he will fight again after he saunters through this next one.

I just watched round one this morning of Hagler Hearns, one of the best rounds of boxing ever.

So David Price spectacularly sparked out again tonight in round 2. The fella just can't survive a big punch. End of the road for him I'd imagine.

Folks, what time is Frampton on the tv tonight? It's not 3 in the morning is it?

Time to give it up or he'll go the way of Maccarinelli. Fella he was fighting didn't look to be in, eh, tip top condition either.

Did I read somewhere that Chavez didn't make weight? This seems to be happening a lot recently.

Big night of boxing with Frampton fighting and Quigg and Crolla in big fights too. Decent fight between Abrham and Stigliez too. Preceded by 3 live GAA games, it's a decent day/night on the box!!

I think Quigg will lose tonight and Carl's fight will be awkward for a bit but Carl looks the stronger looking fighter so should come out on top... 5/6 rounds though he's looking an earlier knockout

The Iceman · July 18, 2015, 07:51:57 PM

some good wins for the local lads so far - looks like Conrad has really tightened up his game.

Syferus · July 18, 2015, 10:08:24 PM

C'mon Framps.

DuffleKing · July 18, 2015, 10:13:45 PM

Two knock downs means a 10-7 round?

Syferus · July 18, 2015, 10:17:27 PM

What the holy hell was that first round about.

tyroneboi · July 18, 2015, 10:21:33 PM

This is a nightmare from frampton! And quigg won in 2 rounds!

beer baron · July 18, 2015, 10:27:20 PM

This is turning into a hell of a fight. Hopefully come out the right side of it,can't chase too much,thi boys countering pretty well when he tries get in close.
