    It's an excellent card, it really is, by the standards of some of the shit floating about recently.

    Each fight throws up a good bit of intrigue, possibilities.

    Brook vs Gavin
    Joshua vs Johnson
    Linares vs Mitchell.

    I think I will bet the over-under on Johnson vs Joshua, rather than outcome, as Joshua is clearly being set up to win and Johnson is a survivor by this stage who PROBABLY doesn't have the desire to even try and spring an upset.

    If whiteboys like Vitali and Fury weren't bait enough for him to try, and Chisora scrubby enough, then he won't come out of his shell for Joshua.

    Instead, he will seek to cutesy-poo and frustrate and land single sneak shots, and try to go the distance. The question is whether Joshua tries like hell or shows maturity beyond his years and blasts the guy out.

    Gavin is the real proverbial African-American in the woodpile. He's the guy who might just spring an upset. Probably too small but he will have his moments.

    Kevin Mitchell needs to be off the booze and on the magic hair-varnish to have any chance.

    Howard Foster with another terrible early stoppage. Awful ref.

    Nick Blackwell stopped John Ryder. I didn't like the stoppage but Ryder did not complain. Lee Selby up next.

    Selby's getting punched in the face but he's the classier operator. Don't think he can afford to showboat too much though.

    Can Selby keep this pace up. This Russian is relentless. Could have a better second half of the fight if Selby tires.

    Selby showed a lot of immaturity there. Hurts his man, then manages to get nothing else done over the next 90 seconds.

    This Russian is very limited, Mexican almost.

    Apparently the "Elite" group of Welsh Champions includes such pugilistic luminaries as Enzo Mac and Nathan Stupidly. And NOW ADD LEE SELBY TO IT!

    80-72 after 7 completed rounds..........that means he got a 10-8 round in there somewhere.

    Never fight in England.

    Selby looked decent, featherweight is probably the best division in boxing at the moment though. He's fucked if he fights any of the other champions
