It's going to get to the stage where boxers will refuse to come to the UK and fight on match room cards isn't it? Embarrassing now.

The only positive is the right man won.

Smith and Macklin are awful, always biased for the sky fighters.

Avanesyan deserved that, Kelly is way too easy to hit.

I know I've mentioned this kid a few times but did anyone see Oscar Valdez at the weekend?

KO of the year without a doubt, the defence / head movement on the back foot and bam!

Some potential mega fights this year at Super Feather and Lightweight if the usual boxing politics fucks off. Valdez and Stevenson looks like it's a go and both sides want it too

Tyson Fury on not fighting last December: "It was just a big mess up. I should've boxed because I've been so inactive. By the time I fight again, maybe June if Joshua fight happens, that'll be a year and six months out, which is not ideal preparation for any super fight."

"They've had a full year to make [the Anthony Joshua fight] happen and it hasn't happened as of yet. We're no further forward than we were a year ago… It's got to happen sooner or later. But Top Rank has to give me two fights this year. I don't care who." [@ESPN]

Joseph Parker beats Fa on UD.

He did win but 119-109 was insane on one card.

Just watched Joseph Parker & Junior FA. More like come dancing, the amount of holding going on. Parker won by a unanimous points decision on a par with the Barrett & Martinez fight a fortnight ago.

Callum wasn't much more than a tune up for him and that was about 5 minutes ago!

Canelo is 33-1 on ;D

If it was a west coast fight definitely after 4. But this one is East coast so usually the main fights are before 4.

Fair play to the trainer. One more round to show something or it's over. No point him standing there to be Canelo's punchbag.

edit: nope, trainer's pulled him there.
