Me too it was good to see.
Give a watch to Andy Ruiz Jr's fight against Greer, that was vicious body punching from the rotund Mexican

He certainly isn't in bad condition, but lets not make out he is in really good condition. He could easily lose a stone.

Yeah he's not exactly fat by any stretch but his body fat % looks fairly high. He could do with losing some of the lard and replacing it with muscle.

Collins should use his jab instead of trying to brawl his way to victory

Collins looks...as 1-dimensional as they come. Shame as he seems to have a good jab when he actually throws the damned thing!

His dad rarely threw a jab as well and he didn't do too badly. Collins is very raw.

He's going to have to now. His right hand/arm is foooked. He's in trouble here is Collins.

he's a tough cookie though isnt he, and he's switching from being a rugby player, could turn out quite decent.
Draw on my card

Good call Finn. Collins is only 23 3 or 4 more years at this level I think.

Collins Jnr is raw, but the jab looks good and there's no doubting his toughness. He needs regular fights and good sparring since he only started fighting last year and he needs to stop playing rugby, can't be good for his body and the extra muscle needed for it definitely doesn't help him, should get down to light heavyweight where his strength will make a bigger distance.

Did Rosenthal just say York Hall was banged out next week with 5,000 tickets sold?

I can't do it, I'm not sure it's possible to sit through 12 rounds of Bradley Skeete, I'm not even going to try, he's too bloody boring, even his face looks dull.

I'm the same, I love watching pure boxers, although I do like a good tear up, but Skeete's neither, he just prances around, flicks the jab out and slips the odd punch and he has no power. No idea how he sells tickets, to me seeing him come to the ring would be the cue to head for the bar.

Skeete, the most exciting fighter in world boxing. This guy is a star in the making. He makes Golovkin look like John Ruiz. Yay for Super Skeete!
