How many times will Johnny Nelson mention that this guy went nine with Chisora? Twice beforehand. I'm going for at least twice in the aftermath.

A weeble wobble would have been more entertaining and better work. I don't think that Joshua looks stiff at all relative to the rest of the heavyweight division.

About One Hundred and Thirty Seconds as it turns out. Still pretty quickly though.

Eddie will be foaming at the mouth in the interview I bet, going on about how Chisora went 8 rounds.

As they sing Ricky Burns' name, there's only one man they're here for tonight.

And all the casuals watching will have no idea that Chisora was fat and couldn't be arsed the entire fight.

For me he was looking a bit better in that department tonight.

One thing I will say about Joshua is that he seems like a very nice guy.

Just wish he'd open up a bit more, you can feel the media training coming through.

"Easy, Easy"

More like
"Pointless, pointless"

When a fat bastard like Irineu Beato Costa Junior stops a guy inside a round Joshua simply shouldn't be bothering with the guy.

We'll see. I don't expect Burns will win more than 2 or 3 rounds.

Eddie in a whisper "Make sure you say how great the crowd are and how you want Ricky Burns to win".

Even if he doesn't the bucky will keep them all going.

Hopefully they do the anthems, Flower of Scotland always helps turn it up a notch.

"He just did 9 rounds with Chisora"
...yeah "just"...11 months ago and since then he was stopped by Irineu Beato Costa Junior in a round and the 44 year old former Cruiserweight Marcelo Fabian Dominguez stopped him in 7...

You think they'd rob Crawford even if he won it clearly?

Yeah thought that too.

Here, I heard somewhere that the Argie went nine rounds with Chisora. Anyone confirm this rumour....
