Dirrell's defending his WBC SMW title against Jack on Friday, it isn't on TV as far as I know,all the other PBC shows have been on so far,hopefully allegedly confirm this week
Daniel Jacobs also defending his WBA Ordinary title against Caleb Truax

Noticed Bunce's Boxing Hour has been moved from Friday to Thursday this week. That only tends to happen when B0xnati0n picked up the rights to a Friday night show. I suspect they've managed to pick up the rights cheaply at the last minute. If that is the case, they'll confirm it either later today or on Tuesday.

I expect Dirrell to KO Jack pretty early,Anthony's not a massive puncher but he's sharp and accurate and after seeing Jack done in a round by Edwards,I suspect Dirrell will want to do a similar job
Dirrell KO4

All going well it could end up a unification! I can definitely see Froch rearing his head if DeGale manages to beat Dirrell though.

Jack won by default after Dirrell failed to turn up. Easy title there for Groves.

Dirrell was rank but I think you need to give Jack credit where it's due. Agree Groves will beat Jack though. Wonder if it'll be over here or if he'll have to go to states.

Just watched it there,literally a fight of 2 halves for me,gave Dirrell the first 6 and Jack the last 6,114-114 although some of the roundss were tough to score,not much clean action,especially early doors
That was the worst I've seen Anthony,I don't know if he was injured as I'm usually a fan but he was poor and gave Jack the belt,Badou wasn't great either but he wanted it more
Groves will KO Jack I would have thought,all in all it was a pretty poor card

Saueraland need to be putting up the money and getting this fight in th UK. A British fighter will never get a better opportunity at the wbc title. Get price on the undercard against a decent opponent and they could go for a medium to large venue. I am praying Groves does the job as it would trigger a potential round of great fights with Degale, callum Smith and Froch in the mix.

Very poor card, didn't particularly enjoy any of the fights. Didn't think Jack had it in him to beat Dirrell, agree Groves will ko Jack.
