We can only guess what the scores were.

Probably 96-94 96-94 96-94 and they went sod that we can't read them out
That's what I'm thinking :witzend:

Anything actually happening right now? I didn’t buy this in the end as no option on my TV box, so RBR updates are appreciated :TU:

Breidis is killing the atmosphere against a fat Frenchman - Russ Abbott would NOT approve.
He's a totally different level, but can't put him away.
I can't help thinking the odds are switching to Gassiev even more on this showing from Breidis, and the earlier Russian judging.

Mmmm, all things being equal I’d go for Usyk on points. But my official prediction on the PTBF thread is Gassiev points, purely due to the location.

I like really both guys anyway so don’t really mind who wins, just hoping for a fair result with no shenanigans.

Like both Gassiev and Usyk, but something in my waters has me going for Gassiev late stoppage.

Briedis is smarter and far more diverse, I'd favour him for sure.

Hopefully the main event delivers because the whole card from the fights, commentary , punditry and atmosphere have been woeful, poor job all around

I have faith though :bag: :bag:

Naz has been good fun. I've quite enjoyed the studio stuff. Duke knows his stuff and the presenter has been ok.

Not sure why we've got Ogogo in the co commentary role though. They could have done far better.

I'm surprised the announcer doesn't fall backwards with that massive corn row ponytail thing.

I think Anthony has given it a good (Ogo)go - pleasantly surprised by his first effort.
