Tonight's 2 main fights are interesting.....I see Liam Smith having too much for Fowler & I'm backing a stoppage win between rounds 7 & 9.

Over in Vegas this one's intriguing......I think Wilder will come out all gun's blazing but I'm going for a Fury win on points or a late stoppage....rounds 10 to 12.

As always,looking forward to Ted Cheeseman this evening....rarely in a bad fight!

Like Gary I'm going for a Fury win, anybody staying up late or getting up early to watch it?

I hope fury smashes him but i have a feeling wilders going to get a punch in and win by ko.

Wilder looks massive here so he needs a early ko or he is going to gas out very quickly

I rate Wilder, think he'd be 50/50 against AJ, but Fury must be a very difficult fighter to face. Similar to Calzaghe in the high volume of scoring shots, ability to avoid getting hit, unpredictable movement, improvisation, and very good at dictating the rhythm of a fight.

Wilder will always be dangerous, but I can't see the additional weight suiting him. Think Fury will toy with him and take him out late in round 9 or 10, just by sheer attrition.

Can I ask where you get your boxing news from, Dave? I feel guilty talking about the sport with you and a few other posters who are clearly real boxing fans, but I'm one of the products of what is wrong with the sport. While millions will watch Mayweather fight a squid, I always enjoy a good competitive bout, but I only follow what I hear about, which inevitably is the 5 or 6 big box office fights per year that Sky and BBC dedicate their time to.

Foster v Cunningham, bit of a controversial win for Cunningham

Magnificent by Fury. I thought during the 4th that it wasn’t going to be his night, but the way he fought was outstanding. Wilder did well to last as long as he did, but that punch at the end, wow.

I thought Wilder was beat towards the end of the third - he was struggling. Wilder bid fantastically to recover. The knock downs in the fourth of Fury didn't seem too clean, he seemed off balance for both and stumbled down.

Great finish by Fury - there was no coming back from that.

Slightly worried at the end of the 10th that Wilder might start the 11th as he finished the 10th and come out all guns blazing, but he was gone by then. Fury was superb, he might not look it but what an athlete he is. If I was Joshua I'd probably think about chucking it in to be honest, both Fury and Wilder would absolutely detroy him.
