will of been him but that was a previous fight last year.
anyway enough of talking about him he rubbish had enough publicity

Degale v polish guy hope degale gets back on track and then we get the rematch with groves and revenge
Cleverley v Bellew these two cant stand each other! bellew a big hitter but clev has a good chin, clev prob get i on points as bellew tires

| Are these fights on TV this weekend? Is it Warren's new channel down in the 440's on sky? And if so will it be free? There has been very little publicity about either in the media, to the point I didn't know the Clev v Bellew fight was even this weekend!
I think Degale should have been sent to fight Kenny Anderson whilst Groves tackles Paul Smith. Anderson pushed Groves very had and was unlucky in that fight. That said, I can see DeGale easily overcoming this Polish fella, similar to Brook last weekend.

Does this Box Nation channel mean that Frank Warren has totally cut his ties with Sky Sports?.....If so, will it spell the demise of Box Office events on through Sky Sports, or will they go, cap in hand, back to Amir Khan to make their box office cash?

Cleverly-Bellew was a top scrap - I actually thought Bellew was going to nick it going into the last 3 rounds, but he ran out of gas, and was bravely fighting on gut instinct by the end.
Not sure what it does for Cleverly's reputation - Last night showed he was very beatable and is very, very easy to tag. He definitely has a good chin and can put together good combinations, but too many scraps like last night's will seriously shorten his career.
As for DeGale, I was quite impressed by the heart he showed, rather than any boxing ability - He was in with an obviously wily, experienced, though very limited campaigner, and he came through a couple of big scares....DeGale has to massively improve before he can be taken seriously as a world-level boxer - I heard him talking about Kessler before the fight, which is very, very premature. Kessler would seriously destroy DeGale, it wouldn't be pretty at all.
DeGale needs to get Warren to find him 2 or 3 easy-ish defences of his Euro crown before he even thinks about the Groves re-match....On last night's show, Groves would probably nail him again.

It was a disgrace!, Hopefully justice will prevail and it will be overturned and declared a no contest as it certainly wasn't a TKO.

| hopkins retains his title after the decision got changed to a technical draw...seems he wasnt faking the injury as cloud claimed as he dislocated his shouler from the collarbone
prob a rematch on the cards? unless cleverley gets a deal done to get him to cardiff but i think it would be too soon for cleverley if it did happen

| I think Dawson would've beaten him and I think he'll beat him in the rematch. I've Hopkins shoulder and it didn't and doesn't look dislocated to me. As good as Hopkins is and has been he's always struggled against quick fighters with good boxing skills, especially when they're his size (Taylor, Jones Jnr, Calzaghe).

| Did anybody see the Nonito Donaire fight on Saturday?
This guy is simply a phenomenal boxer - Ring Magazine put him at #3 Pound for Pound with many pundits even classing him as number 1. His punching power is lethal and he has annihilated quality division's. Saturday's fight wasn't as spectacular as I'm sure he'd have hoped in his Madison Square Garden debut, but I'd put that down to his opponent (the classy, unbeaten Oscar Narvaez) simply coming to survive rather than open up. Even still, Donaire looked comfortable and won every single round on all scorecards.
He'll be moving up in weight now and because of his fights per year ratio could make it to the Featherweight division in a few years. He doesn't have the build to move up weights as drastically as his training partner Manny Pacquiao but with Roach as his trainer he'll be headlining many more events.
Great fighter to watch - for those who haven't seen him. Search him on YouTube and you'll see his amazing power.

He's easily one of the best 5 p4p in the world. His KO of Fernando Montiel was amazing, credit to Montiel, can't believe he got up, it looked like Donaire had punched a hole in his head.
Can't see him sticking around bantamweight for too long. I would love to see him move up to super-bantamweight and fight Toshiaki Nishioka (the guy who beat munroe in his WBC world title fight)
