I'll take a wild swing they are trying to suggest the injury has fully healed rather than what you are suggesting. I don't think they are that dim to risk some form of legal action by coming out and blatantly saying 'hey guess what guys, gotcha.'

Yeah, I'm thinking the same. Looked dodgy as feck though.

I think they were booing her singing. It was comically awful!
Quite possibly. The French national anthem sang with a Germanic tint......thought we fought a war to stop that happening.......

I did round by round at bleacherreport.com to help me stay awake for both fights so far.

Despite my earlier comment I have to concede the first thing that crossed my mind was that whoever made that video needs the sack. He will probably be hired by Dirrell and make a video of Dirrell with the words 'Yeah I meant to cheat Abraham' tattoooed across his forehead.

It's an outrage. It's as if that scene from Cassablanca never happened isn't it.

Kessler really is pure class, I'm praying the fight with Bute comes off, I'm so sure he would smash Bute to pieces, who has fought his whole career in a comfort zone against sub top class opposition and on one occasion was lucky not to be stopped.

Kessler looks fantastic tonight. Frenchman is brave but will not last much longer.

Yep Kessler looks excellent. Bouaddla's one brave dude, giving it a good go.

I swear I didn't look at the result. What is the point when you are going to get to watch it? Seen enough fights to know the Frenchman would not last. Check earlier in the post after 6 or 7 one sided rounds I predicted Andy Murray would last the 12 rounds.

. Cracking performance from Kessler, Bouadla was made for him, but he still looked damned impressive. Bute v Kessler has the potential to be a cracker.

Ideally the winner of Bute/Kessler faces the winner of Ward and the winner of tonights fight.
Absolutely. However I reckon tonights fight and Kessler/Bute will undoubtedly be more interesting than any fight involving Ward. He's a good fighter, but utterly horrible to watch.

If this fight ends via stoppage then I will friction burn my nut sack with the tyre of my motorbike spinning at full throttle.
