I have to decided weather or not I'm still going to buy this PPV.

I could catch DLH V Pacman on a stream.

So did i as well come to think of it, but as a boxing fan its a piss poor fight for a world title.
I wouldn't mind so much if this was down the bill and a 8 rounder, to get Macca back into the swing of things.

Apparently Warren had offered the fight to BJ Flores , but he wanted more time to prepare. Shame as that would of been a better fight than Banks.

Alvarez can punch a bit early, so maybe he'll give it a go for a round or 2.

He`ll get flattened in a round, two at most.

I like Enzo- he seems like a nice guy- but I almost want Alvarez to win for the sheer "It could never happen" factor!

I've become so sceptical - I just wonder if Banks was used as a marketing tool.

I am on my lunch hour and not worrying about my grammar on a boxing forum!!

Also confirmed is the undercard (some of it) via Warren's site.

Chisora fights MATTHEW ELLIS
Small fights STEVE CONWAY
Laim Walsh fights YOUSEF AL HAMIDI
Michael Walsh gets a rematch with DELROY SPENCER.

Lets see if the Walshes fans show a bit more respect than last time. I have a feeling Delroy will be well up for this- come on lad!

Cox and the other Walsh have TBA.

I assume Bendall V Smith just isn't part of the show. Shame- that would have been a good well matched undercard fight- so rare a thing nowadays.

Sky sports refer to him as a 'knockout specialist' ffs.
Plus he's a light-heavy. Sky will be in full-on jackanory mode talking this one up. "Shades of Prescott". Yep, right.

Looks like it's Froch for free for me.

Game of "find the Alvarez", anyone? Which of these Alexeev knockover jobs is he?

Ive been waiting patiently for days to find this out and it has pissed on my fireworks.

Boxing is becoming a rare camoditiy now so im going to refuse to buy it and then purchase it last minuite because the bastards as sky know i will.

Fuckers

Seriously guys, who on earth were you expecting the opponent to be? How many top class fighters would take a fight at this short notice? Answer - no one which is why he's fighting this guy.

I reckon it was the second cabbage we saw. Threw a punch and knocked himself out for christs sake. Knockout specialist.

I'm going with the guy wearing the PR shorts

Who first takes a nose dive and then collapses in the corner

The WBO should be taken to task on this - Alvarez is not in the top 15... or wasn't Yesterday

WBO move dead people up the rankings. Every world title company will move fighters up into the top 15 if it means they get paid.

...And people wondered why Enzo Maccarinelli shit himself and sprinted to the ring on March 8 - you know, the night he finally faced someone who was world-class.

Two-time 'world champion'? If I hear that once on Saturday I'm through with boxing.
