I'd avoid Milton Keynes then if I were you...there's a certain swine who shall remain nameless who just happened to bump into quite a few boxers last time he visited that place...

Agreed on Canelo.canelo stops cotto late
murray outpoints abraham
crolla squeaks past perez/ or maybe the other way around!
Murray needs to stop Abraham, or he loses (controversially too). He isn't getting a decision over there.
Perez will will comfortably.

Two other fights to keep your eyes open for at Bantamweight...
Lee Haskins vs Randy Caballero for the IBF world title. Slightly worried that the occasion might get to Haskins but, if he's on song, he skillful enough and unconventional enough to give anyone headaches...really hope he can do himself justice.
Jason Booth vs Ryan Burnett for the British title. Jason Booth's best days are a long way behind him and has been 'retired' for quite some time so not expecting much from him. However, the attraction is Ryan Burnett - he's trained by Adam Booth, who is adamant he's the most talented fighter he's ever been involved with...and given he's currently got Eubank jr and Andy Lee in his stable (as well as Haye and Groves previously) that's a pretty bold statement to make in respect of a fighter who has yet to win a major senior title either as an amateur or pro! Looking forwrad to seeing him...
Forgot about the ha skins fight!! Coolio.Lee Haskins vs Randy Caballero for the IBF world title. Slightly worried that the occasion might get to Haskins but, if he's on song, he skillful enough and unconventional enough to give anyone headaches...really hope he can do himself justice.

I suppose the story of crolla/perez is how seriously or otherwise perez took the first fight. Crolla won't improve on his last performanceMurray needs to stop Abraham, or he loses (controversially too). He isn't getting a decision over there.
Perez will will comfortably.

I have an even better idea. Invent a time machine and invite us to it.
Can't believe you left us out, I still shake my head in disapproval at the very thought.

Anyway, screw the salad-dodger; Lee Haskins is now the fully-fledged IBF world champion!!! It also paves the way for some massive domestic fights with the likes of the McDonnell twins and previous belt-holders Paul Butler and Stuey Hall. Great start to a top weekend of boxing (though not quite the way you'd have hoped)...
