Upcoming Fights **Mod note: Keep discussion to fight night threads**

Biggest puzzle is will it happen..

If happens I can see Shakur running all night till he either loses on points or gets knocked out.

Zero chance.

Shakur beats Tank every day a the week….. on fooking Twitter

Where are you seeing this?

It's ok. Got it

Them McKennas don't like hanging around.

Great card in the early hours tonight. Really looking forward to the main event and Bakole-Anderson in particular.

Like how Anderson has paired up with Sugar Hill as his trainer. I rate Bakole but think if you stick him on the backfoot he's fairly limited as shown by Michael Hunter. Think with Sugar Hill in his corner Anderson can pull off something similar and win on points on maybe late stoppage.

Think Crawford-Madrimov will be cagey early with Crawford taking over and winning clear on points. Probably the most difficult fight he could take at 154 to be fair to him.

Also think Valenzuela has a right chance to spring an upset against Isaac Cruz. Should be a very good action fight that.

Anderson has some chin. I think he is eventually going to stop Bakole by tko or win on points

I like Valenzuela's chances against Pitbull. He's much taller with a big reach advantage and he's a good mover. Cruz will struggle to get close to him I think. Obviously Cruz could get him out of there but I think it'll be very hard for him to do it.

115-113 for me to Valenzuela. Almost all the rounds were pretty easy to score. I gave the last one to Pitbull but it was very close and Valenzuela finished well and could have stole it.

Let's see what the judges do, I have zero confidence in them.

An awesome fight, well worth staying up for. Top ten all-time for me.

Crawford got it by unanimous decision and I had it 115-113 but it was the toughest test Crawford has ever had.

Just watched it. Crawford was v good but definitely struggled at times with Madrimov's style and took a lot more clean shots than usual. Close fight but Crawford definitely pulled away in the last few rounds to win clear.

Feels very likely to happen but I really don't need to see Crawford v Canelo. Will be an absolute mismatch.

Just seen this in the Guardian 'The crowd booed the result and again when Valenzuela was interviewed afterwards, having seen Cruz live up to his “Pitbull” nickname to leave Valenzuela consistently backpedaling for most of the bout.'

Whoever wrote that didn't even see the fight. Pitbull spent more time backing up than Valenzuela.

I knew what way you meant.

I’m kinda leaning with Crawford. The weight and size I don’t think will be as big a factor as people think. Canelo is short, not that naturally big at 168, and isn’t a fighter that uses his size and weight really. Only difference is one shot punch power, and if Crawford can stay in it, he has the tools and brilliant versatility to win

bud deserves it for whatever reason he hasn't made the money his talent warrants so if he gets a money fight good for him
