What are your thoughts on this fight?
The bookies have Marku 3-1 favourite…. Not sure why it’s that long?

Both unbeaten with one draw and with decent KO rate but Prodan more experienced. Marku is hardly a can’t miss prospect…

Prodan looks a genuine welterweight which is more than Marku’s been facing of late.

From the records it looks an even fight (obviously except Florian is the promotional favourite.)

Prodan is an athletic beast but has average skills. Florian hits hard and is a better boxer. A risk for both guys.

I have had a small punt on Prodan at 5/1 because theirs no way he should be that long. For me Marku only has hype and in his last 2 fights hasnt looked good and got put down by Charlton.

But i do think Marku wins rnd 8 onwards

I like Marku but he embarrassed himself today. Wanting to fight Prodan from 50ft away with many bodies that would stop him around.
Look how timid Marku was in Hearn’s backyard when he ‘confronted’ Benn.
I hope he gets beat… we need characters but not this dramatic.

TBF Benn was standing there with his Mrs and kid, so I think that’s why Marku was restrained. His outburst today was the only small bit of light entertainment in an otherwise very boring press conference.

Yeah it was a bit boring… but good not to see too much ‘beef’….. Usyk was quite funny just by his weird reactions and laughs though

Marku tried some gangsta style at te presser. Looked a bit clumsy with that tactics, like an angry fella from the kebab shop.

At least he did something. I don’t remember much else from that press conference.

Yeah, Marku sorta saved the presser, a decent effort in any case.

Been on a few holidays in Albania, and actually no problems or issues at all, for some reason we seem to get hotheaded ones here .
Great place for a holiday, beaches, mountains, lovely people.

Yes relatively it is, get some great Airbnb deals on accommodation, it's not a country that has a bar culture , mainly the cafe type thing, local beers and wine is cheap , food is great balken fare , loads of bakeries . English isn't spoken much even in Tirana , but I go mainly on my own and get by ok.
Cheap car hire, driving can be an experience, some incredible road routes in the mountains.

Is Prodan part of Usyk’s team? I saw him holding a Ukrainian flag. I’ve never watched him fight but if Usyk’s team have requested that he’s on the card then you’d have to imagine he’s decent
