Jacob's is certainly capable of doing it, Alvarez seems to be very well connected politically so he will need to stop someone who has not been stopped and not really shown signs of vulnerability
So many contenders lose the first 4/5 rounds and play catch up. Didn’t think the extra pounds gave Jacobs any advantage, lots of money down the drain...
Froch really is a one, thought it was an act but he actually has turned into a right self obsessed cock.

Gave too many rounds away in the first half of the fight. Judges gave some very decent scores for a change. Was waiting to hear 2 x 118-110 and a 119-109 or similar.

4 very close fights. I think those 3 are extremely closely level and Alvarez just edges it but 3 supremely talented fighters. All at the same weight, at the same time and not avoiding each other is so rare.

Spot on. More like Federer, djokovic, Nadal and Murray duking it out in the tennis than any of the pantomime that's going on in the heavyweight division
Joe Joyce going a different route so it’s Dubois v Gorman for the British on July 13th
Pity, I was looking forward to that fight
I said at the time it didn’t seem right. After the board announced an agreement for the fight Warren was reluctant to talk about it.
It certainly seemed all or nothing for two heavyweights hoping to further their careers, which neither could afford to lose (dubois is young enough to recover I suppose, Joyce less so) but I didn't really pick up on warrens reticence.
Local boy from Chatham got to the final of the ultimate boxer/prize fighter comp on BT sport. Grant Dennis boxed well and I thought could have nicked it but the knockdown probably took it away from him
As an aside while I like these competitions the MC was distractingly bad. Announced fight history the wrong way round, announced the wrong place the fighters were from, got the corners wrong. Imagine you are there, doing all your warm up and posturing about to enter a 3 round shootout, your big break on TV in front of a good crowd. And the mc announces you are from Nottingham, have lost 12 out of 13 fights and the gets your name wrong. That's a distraction and a disrespect you probably don't need

but like @bobmunro there ain’t anyone better to do it than the miracle man Danny Jacobs
so i to will too take the bet on Dan the man
$250k per pound over the agreed 170
The slow start in the early rounds gave Danny too much to do but he came back well and overall it was a very good fight.
No miracle tonight but you’re still the main man Danny boy - and how classy he was after the fight.
On another note I wish sky would fuck Froch off, he’s like the new Jim Watt. The likes of Malignaggi and Dave Caldwell put him to shame.

Hearn said fight likely to be in the UK.
a step too far for Luke imo but would be great to have Loma fight over here.
yes frank was hesitant but only because he had just weighed in on joyce
