What a one sided win for Floyd.

I was really hoping Cotto would show up (well, me and everyone else I guess).

I think Floyd Mayweather is one of the most un-likeable people on the planet.

So Haye vs Chisora in London sanctioned by the Luxembourg Boxing Authority. You want to sum up where boxing is going wrong, that sums it up quite nicely.

Bloody hell that brawl was ridiculous.

Looked like the whole thing was staged to me. 

Haye now to apply for his licence - take a short ban - fight Chisora, then on to Klitschko

Well. I was partly right

Sounds like he was mugged.

Not really.  I had Khan down as winning 114-113, but quite a few of the rounds were highly subjective.  Judges in America tend to favour aggression and Peterson was constantly coming forward

And now we know why, Lamont Peterson, stripped of the titles he took from Khan last December when doped up on a testosterone pellet embedded in his hip.

Still in control but slowed down a bit, Wale has done well to stay in this far and now looks as though he might have a punchers chance

Too static and moving forward in straight lines so just being picked apart.

 Kid Galahad's guard is non existent, he will win this fight but against a world class fighter I think he will be vunerable.

The fight will probably be stopped, Galahad doesn't seem to have the power for a knockout punch
