[Ruthless-RKO]

Main event should be soonish

[Gran Hermano]

Wow Opetaia is a bad bad man!!

[amwsnw]

Full credit to David. Landed some good shots on Jai but got finished in devastating fashion as was expected. Still think David has a great future if he recovers well.
DAZN need to sort out their commentary, but a good event on a Wednesday night in Australia.

[JamesPhilips]

His opponent is 11-1 and has previously beaten...nobody of note.

Osasu Otobo aka "Who?"

Ok so Teremoana Ko 1

After seeing the opponent weigh in I back this even more. Can’t find a bookie offering a price though

Predictable

[Brute]

Hate this as a mandatory, why would a 39 year old get a mando spot for fighting bin men…

Jai vs Ramirez has to be the fight, it’s so clearly the fight, just make the fight….

(Or bert or usyk)…

Opetaia has challenged Ramirez. It is up to Ramirez to take the challenge.

Just watched this. Fun fight slightly marred by one extremely crap commentator on DAZN. Very brutal KO.

Do people have Opetaia as favourite in the Zurdo fight, should it come off?

[funso banjo baby]

Opetai is the champion.

The DAZN commentary is crap!! I’d favour jai v zurdo. I think jai will get the opportunity to land clean on zurdo and could hurt him. That said I can see an argument for zurdo. It’s a bout we all need to see.
