Edit - As ive glanced at this months BM to spell Krzysztof's name i noticed he lost the title to Grigory Drozd :oops:

I remember seeing they were fighting recently but never knew the result,i seen Drozd beating Masternak for the European last year,he was good that night but never thought he'd be a world champ by now
Drozd did a good number on Wlodarczyk, dropped him once if I remember right and was a clear UD, prob 8-9 rounds up on most of the judges cards.

I think Drozd is with Haymon as well. Should be in some decent contests. A level above Bellew/Clev that is for sure.

I had it 120-107 Drozd. It was a whitewash.

Hernandez has pulled out with a supposed elbow injury.

Afolabi has steamed into him on Twitter over it.

Guess that means Pricey's fight won't be shown live in the UK then.

Agree. I'd settle for one with some really heavy hitters in it, only so often you can watch a collection of 11-0 with 1 KO 'prospects' slap each other to bits...hence why the heavies at least hold some interest...

I'd ban it outright, 3 rounds is not a professional boxing match.

Grumpy pudendum ;;-)

It probably could do with an extended rest though....

aye, Afolabi is a Toneyesque lay-back-'n-counter type, and Hernandez is, well, he's Cuban, so yeah.
I was there the day he lay back for nine rounds and then countered Enzo. Very strange affair.

Cracking stuff btw. Saturday night - boxing - free tele - normal human being hours! Hope Mick H, Sauerlands and C5 only get stronger :TU: .
