Is anyone watching tonight?

Absolutely, enjoying the Catterall v McKenna fight - caught the last couple of minutes of the bearded fella beforehand

Looks like Conlon will win relatively easily but not convinced this hands down and look at me swaying out way of punches will work against a good fighter.  Learning fight though.

If I was Parker I’d reassess how I approach conditioning. He doesn’t seem to get the balance right, even in the Hughie Fury fight.

Parker seems a bit like Bruno. Good technique but not enough mongrel in him to really go after an opponent.
Can see him slipping down the rankings into obscurity now, there seems to be too many other guys out there who seem more desperate when they are in the ring.

He's certainly young enough but I wonder what Parker's motivation is now. He was world champion once and maybe doesn't think he's capable again so he'll carry on losing to the best fighters and picking up good money for a few more years.

In other news, Danny Williams got knocked down four times last night by former lightweight champion Lee McAllister and he says he's retired again.

The same one. He's been fighting around Europe and getting beaten by sub-journeymen.
