Eubank v Blackwell is live on C5 on Saturday, Hughie Fury is on the undercard on Spike TV apparently.

Eubank Jr v Blackwell is a great tear up, both of them love to trade.

Blackwell's having trouble seeing out of his left eye.

I would like to see a Saunders Eubank rematch next, Eubank is better now and even then it was a very close decision.

Kell Brook just knocked out his latest binman inside 2 rounds.

Saunders beats Eubank Jnr again in my opinion. Eubank has 30 seconds a round where he unleashes and then gets tired and cruises through the rest of the round. Saunders wouldn't allow that, he'd outbox him again.

Not seen a scrap like Eubank Blackwell for a good while. Shame Blackwell's eye went, but still couldn't see the stoppage he needed.

Brook didn't want to fight Bizier did he? IBF's no.1 contender, what a joke.

I haven't really watched boxing since the 1990s, but I half-watched the Eubank-Blackwell bout last night while I was reading. I say half-watched because I could barely look for the last few rounds. Jesus, what a state Blackwell was at the end, that haematoma was growing in front of your eyes. I really hope he's OK.

Edit to add: just read the poor guy is in an induced coma.

The bloke took some punishment and still kept coming forward. Must have a chin like concrete, I really hope he is ok. Brave as a lion.

Another 1st round KO for Callum Smith. It's only a matter of time until he's a world champ.

Depends who he fights for it though. DeGale is the man at 168 and wants the Jack/Bute winner so it all depends on if that gets made but he looked monstrous again, one of those Smiths has turned out to be good finally. Him v DeGale is potentially huge though.

Martin to give Joshua a tough time? A tall southpaw with power in both hands. AJ better have a boxing plan that doesn't involve getting hit like vs Whyte

Big night tonight. Martin to stop AJ is 9/2, it's not out the question. AJ is open to a big left hook and we've seen he can be wobbled. His jab is a bit shit too.

Martin has piss all defense too so I think it's safe to say someone is getting knocked out.

Martin is only here to cash in on his lucky world title win. It might not be easy but I'm confident AJ will win.

That's that then. Clinical by AJ, get him in with Wilder if he somehow gets through Povetkin.

Martin only got the title because Glazkov injured himself early on.

Really saw that being a tricky one for AJ.

He really learned from his fight against Whyte, much better footwork and better use of his shots. Took the initiative early and it made Martin look a lot like Audley Harrison.

Would like to see him fight someone who can actually move and use a bit of head movement.

Because the other guy hurt his knee. Martin cashed out his belt first chance he got, he will never be seen again.

Ignore the title, this still doesn't tell us where Joshua is at as he needs to fight an elite fighter for us to know that.

Just as I thought. Devastating KOs by AJ, but Martin made it clear he didn't want to get up. Here for the £££.

expect Joseph Parker to beat Takam so that will be Joshua's first mandatory challenger. Will be a much sterner test - doesn't have to happen till the end of the year though.

Pillow puncher Josh Warrington on now, could have his work cut out here. His lack of power will really let him down as he progresses in his career. Exceptional work rate though.

Hilarious score cards there in the last two fights. Both were incredibly close.

I think Khan will be winning on the scorecards and boxing a great fight before he gets caught and it's all over. It's almost impossible that Canelo goes this whole fight without landing a huge shot and I just don't think Khan can take that sort of power. There's weight classes for a reason in boxing, Canelo will enter the ring not far off a light-heavyweight, whereas it wasn't too long ago that Khan was a chinny lightweight.

Also, Crolla is up against a genuine KO artist in Barroso, that one could go badly wrong as well.
