ks, that face!!!....but Joshua's look of nonchalant indifference is pricelessThought it was nice of him to include Audley though...!
George Groves has been added to the Bellew-Cleverly card against 17-3 American Denis Doughlin. Given Groves is the mandatory for Dirrell's WBC belt, it's something of a risk, but all credit to him for keeping himself active and, by the looks of it, not letting the KO dent his self-belief. A few pieces have to fall into place but with Groves and DeGale on the show and both likely to be fighting for world titles in early 2015, looks like Eddie Hearn is eyeing another big showdown between the two West London fighters later on in the year. Wonder if there is a decent venue somewhere in that part of town that could host the show...?!

They're saying that martin Murray will fight GGG, uh oh...
On the boxing page on Facebook, its been confirmed for 21st February in Monaco!....I want GGG to be the real deal and love the idea of him smashing his way through the ranks. I just have this feeling he is going to come unstuck against a bigger fighter at the weight.
Coyles knockout was phenominal. Surely the end for katsidis now. I have notice his speech worryingly slurry over the last couple of years.
Great to see my old mucker derry mathews win again on saturday.
Also thought id chuck it in as nobody has mentioned it.....check out povetkins terrifying knockout of carlos takam on friday in moscow. Takam is a top ten heavyweight but being prostate on the canvas for what felt an absolute age will have damaged his allure somewhat. Great win for povetkin and surely reafirms that he definately belongs at the top table of heavyweight boxing

Went to watch my cousin Lennox Clarke box at "lords of the manor" show at hatherley hotel Cheltenham Friday. He is a super middle weight . It was his 5th pro fight and he stands 5-0 with 3 TKO's I think he will be one to look out for.
This is the video of the fight his fight starts at around 30 mins.

I can't wait for Eubank Jr v BJS. What are your predictions?
Points decision.Edited by Amirhussain on Tuesday 28th October 20:28
If Saunders came in looking in excellent shape for this, I would fancy him, but I suspect Eubank will put the leg work in and may just edge it. Neither man has a huge amount of power to worry the other. Saunders has a better background but Eubank has improved very quickly and it may just be the catalyst for him.
I think it'll be very close.
ETA If I had to stick my neck out and put money on it. I'd go with Saunders, but i'm weary that Eubank Snr has looked after Jnr carefully and wouldn't unnecessarily put him in the ring with someone at this stage in his career if he didn't think he could win it
