Who wins? Selby-Gradovich/Mitchell-Linares

[Stuarty]

Seems like there's a fair amount of interest in both fights - how many of us are planning on getting the PPV?

I'll be purchasing it on PPV. Only way I can see it properly as I'm in with the kids most weekends. Really good card and I am looking forward to it but wether it's PPV material is another story! Hearn and Sky could've easily split this card into three decent shows in their own right instead of consolidating them for Box Office! After this show there are a good few boxing free weeks that im sure we'd all rather have a show to watch! I always find these 'stacked' cards a bit rushed so I hope that isn't the case with this one.

Going to watch it down by the river

Hopefully both Brits can win - tough call

I shall also be watching it in the same place.

Selby and Linares.

I think the obvious money would go on a Selby / Linares result.

Be nice for Kev to do it, but skillwise Linares is a slightly vulnerable but gifted boxer.

Usually I think people, not necessarily the harcore lot on here but in general, get worked up in support for a British fighter just because they are from the home country. I always try to avoid this, for example I predicted Tete to beat Butler etc... but this time I genuinely believe Selby and Mitchell can do it and I'm pretty excited for this show

Crazy because not long ago I thought Ghislain Maduma would beat Mitchell; maybe I have gone mad

He was getting beat quite clearly by maduma though but Mitchell's fitness was superior on that occasion. Can't see that being the case against a legit world champ

Yeah I agree, but I'm just referring to the lack of faith I had in him, now I think he could possibly beat Linares :P

Gradovich wins the longer it go's the easier it will get for the Mexican-Russian Selby barely last to hear the final bell.
Mitchell v Linares draw.

You sure you haven't got Lee Selby mixed up with someone else? Can't ever remember Selby looking tired

Linares is a real special talent. It's too bad his face is apparently made out of some kind of paper.

Seriously though, Gradovich and Linares for me, sorry Brits. I actually hope DeGale will beat Dirrell and think he has the tools to do so, but not sure he will get a decision in the states.

I think because of Selby having nothing from anybody, up unti 2 years ago fighting in front of barely 100 fans, his career has taken off, Too often Uk ffighters have to travel, if they are the champions why is it they fight nobody if dont go to. Americ.? Honestly believe he toyed with him
Superior to Gradovic in every way

You would appear to have been right.
