Well it’s an interesting fight, but the monster is a big favourite with the bookies and rightly so, though I don’t think he’s gonna stop boo-boo - but looks too big, too strong, so likely a points win.

That said, Demetrious has surprised people over the years and maybe he’s got something up his sleeve tonight (like a stunning perfect punch )
Good documentary that, the Mexican boys were clearly brought up by another loony boxing Dad.
Credit to them for reaching the place they’re at though. Part of the crazy reason they’re as good as they are I imagine.
also the older brother seems to have some issues, gang shootings and whatnot a few years ago… but I will say he’s a real bad ass, terrific effort v the P4P king a few years back, and I always look forward to seeing him fight, but he’s going to be the much smaller man against that idiot, Charlo…What the hell is he doing with the weights there?

It’s going to be like his twin brother’s last fight in reverse…wrong weight division

Boo boo is clearly a very decent person, I hope he does well tonight.

Looking forward to the super light title fight, that should be explosive - 20 quid on fite TV. I think I’ll sign up pretty good value

Did he try to eat some fiber, to shit some kilos out? :doh:
Missing a catchweight, you can't make that shit up.
And he is still somehow the champion at middleweight, even though he didn't defend his title in 2,5 years.
I bet if it would be someone like Adames, he would've lost his title after 6 months.

Bena vs Andrade gonna be a close one.
I have a feeling Andrade can do it, though.

I was going to bet on Charlo, but wanted to wait until the weights before making a decision. Decision made, what a clown.
