4-1 Matchroom

Ammo to upset Sheeraz because all of the favourites can't win in 5 competitive fights can they?

I got 3/5 which I'm really pleased with, all 5 were genuinely 50-50 fights, so it's no wonder they were difficult predictions, great night

Sign of a great card mate! Really felt like a UFC-style event for the first time in that there were so many good match-ups that were not only hard to predict beforehand but that were also firecrackers on the night. If only this could become the norm!

Three outta five

Ford and Wilder let me down. Hindsight always 20/20 but I watched a brief interview with Wilder it seemed like his heart wasn't in the game anymore. I would have changed my pick to Zhang.

Still believe Ford is the better boxer he seemed to be landing the cleaner, meatier shots but got outhustled by Ball. Cracking fight.

This is the most evenly matched and hard to predict card I can remember. The Bivol match was the odd one out but that’s nobody’s fault. If it had been Beterbiev vs Bivol it would be an almost perfect card. But Zinad tried hard and had some success at least.

Zinad went for it, decent fighter and a fun fight.

Maybe because Bivol is so good, fighters stay in their shell and don't take risks.

They are content to lose on points, and that works for the Russian.

The Libyan really tried to win.

Every fight was a cracker, great card

what I found interesting, was how much spite Bivol put into his work, I suspect that Zinad brought this on when he put the nut on him at the end of one of the rounds previously, and the fact he was getting quite cocky and giving Bivol some stick.

Bivol is known more as a counterpuncher, but he was right over that front foot.

I like the fact Zinad went for him, as someone else here said, too many challengers seem to look to survive and avoid embarrassment these days, rather than really giving it a go.
