I see Conlan is finally fighting someone who will hit back, be interesting to see how he does.

I hope he's the sort of fighter who gets better when he fights better opposition. I haven't been overly impressed with Conlon so far. He seems to lack the power punch that most top pros have. Would love to see him become a proper boxing star

Conlan still has work to do to reach the top but I'm not sure Dogboe is the quality opposition he needs right now.

Won't matter now as he's done his foot in while training!

Some exciting fights coming up - Usyk Chisora tomorrow, Santa Cruz Davis tomorrow too, Dubois Joyce in a few weeks, Whyte Povetkin too, Fury, Joshua, Crawford Brook soon also.  Be interesting to see what Joshua is like after the Ruiz loss, will he be the same fighter or not?

Last couple of minutes of this interview means I hope Chisora gets knocks out tomorrow night

I think Chisora wins pretty handy (in light of my Lomachenko prediction a few weekends ago).

You'll get your wish now  ;)

I watched that yesterday, just turned on Kugan in an instant, I actually thought he was messing.  Wouldn't be surprised to see Chisora win, but if I was putting money on it I would pick Usyk to edge this, maybe even by late stoppage.

I'd be massively surprised if this is anything other than a comprehensive win for Usyk. Chisora is a very limited boxer and I expect Usyk not to get drawn into a war and pick him apart like he did to Bellew and like Fury did to Chisora in the past,
That was never a square ball!!

Absolutely no need for this fight to be this late.

HiMucker

This not fairly even? Usky slightly ahead for me. But surprised at how close

HiMucker

Just as I say that! Big finish to that round from Usyk

Decent scrap but Usyk isn't coping with the main men!!

gallsman

Good fight, Usyk the clear winner but he's just going to be too small to mix it with the best up there. A real shame as he's a fabulous boxer.

square_ball

Decent enough fight. Usyk comfortable enough winner Chisora never hurt him at any point. Sky bias on the other hand 🙄

I'd love to see Usyk dominate the heavyweights but size looks to be the problem.

Anyone see the Davis KO of Santa Cruz? Brutal uppercut. It was lights out before he hit the canvas.
