Allen/Browne will be a good watch. Gashi/Chisora will be an alley fight; sloppy; foul filled; wrestling.

I think so too. Just practice fights for Browne and Chisora.

Really!? But Browne beat Sok., at least they gave him the win. I didn't see it. It says he was knocked down though. Is Allen good? He's never fought anyone of note. and his record isn't that impressive, not to denigrate the guy, I don't know him.

I didn't see it but I believe it, since boxing decisions are backwards more often than not, and Browne was knocked down. OK, so the fight will be more interesting than I thought!

I’m a little surprised that a lot of people believe that the 40-year-old Lucas Browne will enjoy an easy night against Dave Allen.

Lucas Browne was obliterated by Dillian Whyte and delivered an awful performance during his most recent outing, when he was fortunate to be awarded the victory over a journeyman possessing a losing record.

The Aussie is the underdog in this fight and the charismatic Brit has a great chance of gaining the win.

Admittedly I don’t know much about Senad Gashi, but I’d anticipate the German to lose to 'Del Boy'. I expect Matchroom to orchestrate a relatively easy night’s work for Chisora, as they’ll probably want to secure a win for Dereck in order to use him in the future as the sacrificial lamb to help build interest in the UK market for one of their other heavyweight prospects, such as Oleksandr Usyk.

Yes you did.

Pretty even fight I think, though the insiders maybe know Lucas can hardly stand up these days.

That should be a fun fight.

I wouldn't take it seriously. Neither guy is ever going to be a big threat to win any legit heavyweight title.

But put Browne and Allen together and it should be entertaining. Not pretty, but entertaining.

True, but a good scrape is a good scrape and this should be a good scrape.

Allen's not so terrific that he should be such a solid favorite.

Browne can whack a bit and Allen isn't a defensive master.

That's what I was thinking too, that I'd make a 3-1 bet on Browne, but I've never seen Allen. Some bookies have it closer to 2-1.

I'm interested in Allen - Browne. Browne seems to be finished, and now's the time for him to get knocked clean out of the top 50.

Chisora - Gashi is not very interesting.

Camkiran vs Cobra is intriguing... but stylisticaly the crude stalker brawler Camkiran will get the stoppage early if more skilled Cobra is unprepared...

Cobra so far not good under pressure... bakhtov, haye, helenius...

Camkiran usually gets the job done in round one. How will he fare if the fight goes longer? I don't believe we are about to find out. This Cobra lacks venom and is going to get milked again.

Allen is the 1/3 favourite and you can still only get around evens that he wins by stoppage. It's not great value really.

That being said I have placed Allen by stoppage along with Chisora, Garcia and Crawford all by stoppage also for my weekends boxing bet. Comes to around 8.5/1 :D

Well well. At least we know Umut can do the rounds but I didn't think it would be necessary. That probably doesn't bode well in terms of his potential.
