Not an option for reasons I will not divulge.

I fancied Alvarez wide on points but by fight time I thought he would stop Chavez Jr especially after the first few rounds, ive never rated Chavez but he was dreadful beyond belief

I think they both just hurt PPVs again like May vs Pac.

People who make predictions almost entirely on size and durability are rarely right. This reminds me a bit of the DLH-Pacquaio fight (although I actually picked DLH in that one).

Pac/Dlh was my biggest gambling win ever. You're spot on, even the most knowledgeable of Boxing fans rarely understand weight and size.

I tipped Pacquiao to beat De La Hoya but I knew even less about weight then than I do now

Yes, hopefully no roadblocks this time. Enjoy your push-ups!

It was probably Wilder.

No, he seemed to have a chin, but indeed, who knows senior once cheated and Wilder came out of it.

In conclusion; while the main event was the joke most felt it would be when announced, the three prelims made the PPV better value than many.

Diaz v Avila was a quality boxing chess match until the 7th when Diaz took over. I am not convinced that Diaz has the pop to keep the top level guys (LSC, Frampton, TRex Jr., Mares) off of him, but I would love to see him v Quigg or Selby.

Matthysse is back but not a juggernaut by any means at welter. Taylor put up a decent fight before being pole axed.

Reyes revealed the cracks that have always been there for Lemieux. The Canadian will be hard pressed to compete with the likes of Jacobs, Charlo and GingerHead, but he is great entertainment value.

Fight was wank completely one sided.
I know it was a set up for GGG in September and all but the level of competitiveness was absurd.
