Excellent news, the fight I was hoping for.

I remember after Bellew beat Haye the 2nd time he spoke to Chisora and said he wouldn't face him as he was too big.

The question over Usyk as a heavyweight is if he can beat the bigger guys. This is an excellent challenge for him.

It will be a good test for Usyk but i don’t think anyone should have much doubt that barring a massive punch, Usyk is going to wipe the floor with him

Still a brave choice from Usyk, I feel. Delboy can slug it out with the best of them and he absolutely scraps it out. So Usyk will have a full-blown heavyweight chucking weighty blows at him. Technique, footwork etc all makes him probably take it for me either way.

See no reason not to continue boxing in Rocky III ending style. Seeing boxers self-ref would be awesome.

Billy joe saunders put out what he thought would be a joke video about hitting your missus if she was annoying you in the lockdown and its backfired big time.

I am shocked—shocked—to find that Billy Joe Saunders is acting like a complete wanker again.

Needs to work on his stance, he lets it get too wide at times. As he fights better opponents they will let him set and come with combinations that will leave him struggling to move away from

Sad indictment of boxing that some of its leading figures don't even bother to hide the fact that they're in bed with such a repugnant individual.
