I just heard Luke Campbell lost earlier. I'm shocked. I thought he would handle the step up, I really did.

I've got Eubank to win on points, looks decent value considering he might be fatigued from his poor weight making and his prancing about letting folk off the hook doesn't do him any favours either. However, he is a league above O'Sullivan so will not be surprised if he knocks him out.

I'm shocked too, I never understand why they match make with such experienced fighters, it can make all the difference.

Lord...... how many times are the commentators going to repeat something along the lines of 'the real winners are the fans tonight...'

It doesnt matter how much glitter you sprinkle on a turd, it's still a turd.....

Looking forward to Eubank-Sullivan. You know Sullivan has come to fight and Eubank won't be able to mess him about. He'll force him to prove himself (I fearlessly forecast).

Virtually 100% of the chatter was related to Campbell - "shame he didn't win" "tough learning fight" etc.

Not one of the so-called experts spoke about Mendy in any sort of detail, or indeed give him any real credit for his victory. There was also absolutely zero explanation of how/why he won. It was simply ALL about the house fighter losing!

Absolutely appalling punditry.
Sky.
It's terribly one-eyed, which is frustrating as everything is then slanted away from a true picture.
Now we have Glenn McCrory blathering on about "the fans winning" "good value for money" etc. Is that really his job?! I thought Matchroom were the promoters......

The analysis needs a complete shake up (appreciate I'm preaching to the converted on here). Froch has the potential to be very good if let off the leash.

I was on Enzo KO, Barroso win, and Bellew on points, so it has been a good night. Next one is Eubank Jr rounds 1-3.
Cheers for the spoiler

I think McCrory is probably the worst pundit on tv,im amazed at his staying power,i dont think he's ever said anything that ive thought "very perceptive of you Glenn" EVER

Ive said before Eubank to win inside three rounds, in a 'statement' fight.

Looking forward to this.

Definitely needed a couple more learning fights with hindsight. He stayed amateur too long.

Its hard to predict with Eubank Jr,if he can be guilty of posing and posturing,taking fights into longer stages than required

If he gets to work early then he KO's O'Sullivan early IMHO of course

Cant stand the bloke and a questionable "world champ" in my view (given who he had to beat to get there).

Perfect matchmaking in my opinion,his loss says more about himself rather than Eddie or whoever,he was poor from the get go and was unable to tighten things up and change tactics
