Kell Brook sounds a right ****

Yeah i'm not a fan. He's wasted his peak years fighting nobodies as well. He is stuck between a rock and a hard place because he isn't a big enough draw to be the A-side against any top Welterweight and without his belt, he is a high risk low reward opponent. So he needs to keep his belt which means he has wasted 18 months fighting puddings. Tonight is no different.

I want him to fight Khan

Me too. Be a good fight, but it needs Khan to at least be competitive against Canelo, which might be an ask given the size difference, Canelo's power or heavy handidness, and Khan's chin.

Yes I'm with you totally on that

Kell should have no problem with Bizier tonight, but I still think Khan will have to much if/when he fights Brook. Glad to see Luke Campbell on the card against Gary Sykes, looked completely out of sorts against that french kid in his last fight, hopefully he gets back on track. Eubank jnr and Blackwell should be a decent scrap, I don't expect it to go the distance but still see a jnr win, Martin Murry reckons Blackwell by stoppage. Finally Ward v Sullivan Barrera (Boxnation 2am). AW is a class act and i expect him to do well at light-heavy, plenty of big fights out there with Kovalev, Stevenson & even Braehmer.

Also Eubanks son on 5 I think?

Also Eubanks son on 5 I think?

Eubanks undercard is on Spike now and then goes to ch5 @ 21.40. Also Andre Ward is on box nation @ Midnight but I'd imagine his fight could be 3-4 am.
