Wow, Lucas Matthysse. What a statement. Devastating power.

You're right, Chavez isn't a title holder. His last outing was his defeat by Martinez last year, and then he had the drugs ban. I actually don't rate Chavez all that highly and fancy Murray to do a number on him. I agree that Murray does seem like a right good bloke and isn't one to shy away from a challenge! Hope he can do it.

Martin Murray to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in Mexico City on the 3rd of August. Another great opportunity for Murray. I hope he gets a fair crack of the whip in this one with the judges but sadly I'd imagine that will be unlikely!

Tyson Fury made me laugh out loud there. What a bizarre character he is. David Price will knock him unconscious.

Hutton isn't in the squad.

Tony Bellew stops Edison Miranda in the 9th round with an excellent body shot. Fairly cagey fight, with Bellew looking a bit tentative for the first half. Miranda was just his usual self, some wild swinging punches and a lack of workrate. Good name on Bellew's record though, and hopefully a catapult to some bigger fights. He has decent power but is actually quite an underrated boxer too. His jab can be a real weapon!

This ref is beyond dreadful. Some of his decisions have been completely baffling.

I've heard he makes a meal of any contact in the box.

Disappointing, but I guess not unexpected. Kenny Anderson will be devastated at that news, especially after the fiasco the last time they were due to fight.

Impressive win for Groves last night. The stoppage was particularly good, he landed 4 or 5 massive power shots. He doesn't look like he should but George Groves has undoubted KO power. The only negative was a pretty deep cut above his eye but hopefully that won't delay the Anderson fight. Really looking forward to that already.

Why were Channel 5 showing Tyson Fury fighting a walking punch bag? Absolute farce.

Matthysse is a wrecking machine! Superb performance, his power is incredible.

Any idea what time Ortiz v Lopez will start mate? Is it a 4am job?

Aluko was a joy to watch. The one shining light in an otherwise truly horrendous season. All the best Sone.

How do you see it going mate? I fancy Bradley to cause Manny some problems, especially if he brings his head into play in the close exchanges! Pacquiao will want Bradley to come forward in straight lines but i just can't see that happening. Bradley, even though he doesn't possess much power, is a smart fighter. That coupled with Manny looking so poor against Marquez last time out, makes 4/1 on a Bradley win seem pretty tempting!
