Can't see anything going but a KO loss for Kelly. Based on what I've seen of them both, Kelly doesn't have the stamina, punch or chin to keep this guy honest for 12 rounds.
I look forward to proving you wrong Mr Flump.
Are you Josh Kelly

Seen a few folk tipping Kelly, obviously I want him to win but I can't see anything other than a Murtazaliev blow out

I'm from Kelly's area (Stanley if anyone knows it)
and would love him to win. But I think after a bright start he will get backed up and stopped.
Really would love to be wrong though

Just moved out of stanley mate. Lofy heights of lanchester!! Newcastle supporter but regardless would love to see kelly win.
No way is josh gonna be as easy to hit as Tszyu. Joshs conditioning will need to be immense to pull this off.

I think Josh is a lot better than the Avanesyan fight showed. He got a cut, couldn't handle it mentally and fell apart. When he came back to the corner with the cut, Adam Booth couldn't calm him down and the rest was history. He's matured in and out of the ring and I think he's going to bank the early rounds. Can he keep it going? I'm completely and utterly biased, so you'll forgive me for saying, abso-bloody-lutley.
Ha'way the lad!!!!!

The problem with Murta could be that even when fatigued, his punches are still quick, hard and plentiful.
Kelly seems to believe his own power will be a key factor, it may well need to be.
I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that any kind of surprise, well-timed shot from Kelly that makes Murta react, will have me straight off the sofa.

Murtazaliev looks like a granite russian, rechnically good very much in the berbetiev mould. Hasnt proved it yet thou. Tszyu just stood in front of him and tbh, fundora had alrwady ruined him.
Kelly will be a total different test. I just think josh will have to be super fit and super disciplined to pull it off. Chance but still fancy the russian late.

Considering you've only won one of the last twelve derby matches, I'm not surprised you're not that bothered any more.
Like you, I used to be really into it, but now I'm an armchair/radio fan. Boxing has always been my sport, so when Sun-lun are struggling, I pretend it doesn't bother me.

Hopefully the Atang and Turhan fights aren’t too quick, I’d like to see a few decent rounds on the main card.
