I was hoping some prelims would be shown online. That's one thing Top Rank does very well.
Anyway, hopefully it will be a good night. I expect Floyd to win handily, but I'm not too confident about the outcomes of the other bouts.

I asked off work for this one, so I might actually be able to give some live scoring instead of posting after the fact this time!

Whereas I've been called in early, so any updates will be much appreciated.

So far the biggest update is that Showtime has a new show about 1950s researchers wiring people up and watching them have sex.

Gotta love the propaganda piece about Canelo pretty much dominating Trout, too...

Cano heavy handed and moved forward like a tank. Very clear 10-9 for Cano in rd 1.

Rd 2 better for Theophane, but he didn't get started until the 2nd half. Cano still landed cleaner and harder, but Theophane no longer gunshy. Reasonably close 10-9 for Cano.

Theophane hurt twice in the round, but fought back enough in the end to avoid a 10-8 on my card. 30-27 Cano.

Theophane has good first half of rd 4, but gets tagged a couple times in the middle of the rd. Reasonably close 10-9 for Cano. 40-36 Cano.

Theophane starts Rd 5 strong, nearly gets decapitated, manages to stand, and comes back strong to knock Cano on his heels a time or two. Cano takes command at the end again to win it clear. 50-45 Cano.

Theophand dominates 1st 2 mins of rd 6. Cano reasserts himself late, but Theophane takes it reasonably close 10-9. 59-55 Cano.

I've given Theophane rounds 2, 6 and 7 so far.

Rd 7 Theophane has become the aggressor, and vastly outworks Cano. Fight is definitely turning. 68-65 Cano.

Rd 8 Theophane continues to be the aggressor and has more snap on his punches as Cano looks arm-weary. Cano does pick it up at the end to make it close, but Theophane gets anohter 77-75 Cano.

I've got Theophane 4 rounds down and I'm English he's being outworked and outclassed. Needs a last round ko.
