Breazeale pulled out of the eliminator with Pulev so I guess he's fighting Wilder.

That's not what Wilder's camp said

I’m pretty stoked for the fights tonight all three are super competitive and the closest odds are degale at 3-1 after losing his first fight with truax. Think they will all be great

I don’t understand these odds on j rock Gallimore in the slightest I thought Gallimore would be like 5-1 dog but apparently it’s a coin flip in the betting markets??? He impressed last time in a mild upset after a pretty **** start to his career but Julian has been on tv here a ton is skilled and has prospect pedigree. Seems like a great value bet to me

Williams got got real bad against Charlo, proper blowup of the hype train and looked like dog **** against Ishe Smith. He looks like part of his soul has been taken. I'm surprised the betting is as close as it is but Gallimore is a decent boxer with great power, they way he messed up DeLoach was impressive. I wouldn't touch Williams personally. Lara at 6/5 when he was there (11/10) now is the bet of the weekend. Hurd is awful and I don't think Lara is dumb enough or past it enough to get caught in a web.

Def a better boxer but damn hurd is a big dude and relentless. I look forward to it. At some point Lara will show his age idk if it will be here or not

Hurd has power and a good chin but no defense or speed of any kind. He beat Trout because Trout didn't have the power to hurt Hurd and eventually gassed out. All Hurd had to do at that point was push him over a la Homer Simpson.

It'll be another boring Lara fight where he dances around the ring outboxing Hurd for 12 rounds.

I hope Floyd had ran out of BS by the time he got to the talk of Tank vs Lomachenko coming up later this year. That would be great to see. Loma would likely pick him apart with tactical precision, but definitely the type of fight that needs to be made.

De gale is such a waste he is ****. Truax is basically a bum journeyman from the Midwest this fight was trash

DeGale Truax turning in a real sleeper. Poor refereeing too from Byrd, the headbutt, the handling of the holding/clinching/pushing inside. Truax didn't look like he really wanted to do much other than grapple for the last handful of rounds. DeGale looked as poor as ever, I can't recall the last time he looked like a worthwhile top 3 168lber.

Lara Hurd is very interesting so far. Hurd seems able to get to Lara, we'll see if he can do some damage soon enough, Lara's defense better be sharp if his wheels aren't going to get any faster.

Fantastic fight I thought Hurd won but who knows . Hurd is so ****ing HUGE it’s absurd. I would watch rematch but i don’t see it ending well for the older guy

Just to call my shot I like Hurd over Jermell charlo. I think he is too damn big and I think this charlo is overrated. Would love to see it tho and i very well could be wrong. His KO of Lubin was no joke . Division turned from garbage to interesting over the last 2 years . Hurd is a terminator to me it will take someone supremely talented to overcome his size , heart , and chin Imo. I don’t think the mellower twin has it. The other one now we are talking. Wanna see that bad. Probably favor that charlo but I like both of them as some bad dudes. I could easily see a pretty epic sort of two year period where Hurd beats the smaller one and his brother gets pissed talks some entertaining **** and we get a huge fight at 160 between Hurd and bigger charlo

Didn't think Lara would stand and trade with Hurd.

I really don't know how Hurd does it. He is tailor made for a counterpuncher like Lara but never stopped coming forward. Just walked straight through any offense from Lara like it was nothing.

Props to Hurd, I'd Lara by one but that last round was amazing. Hurd is ridiculous, dude makes weight at 153 just to rub salt into the wounds that he makes 154 handy. **** could probably make 147 if he tried hard enough.

I'm pretty amazed he can get that skinny. He's huge for 160 let alone 154. I'm not sure if anybody can knock him out at 154 but if anybody can do it it's Jermell Charlo.

He's just tall I think. He does look huge, but both he and Lara were like 163 in the ring, that's only like 5-6% weight gain. Considering Canelo is usually 10-15%, maybe even more in some fights above his weigh in, I'm not sure you see Hurd moving up anytime soon. He probably could work hard to make 147, in a small ring at that weight he would likely be nasty vs anyone.

At 6'1" with a 76 1/2" reach, he's bigger than every notable active middleweight but fights at light middleweight.

Looks like Vanes for Cino

It has only been floated as a possibility.

Guy hasn't fought since May 2016 and would have less than a month to prepare for the fight. I'd rather see O'Sullivan in there.

I really like Vanes and props if he gets his pay day but he's never fought about 154 and was beaten well by Lara and Charlo recently and hasn't fought in nearly 2 years. Of course O Sullivan is a better option. There are dozens of better options than Vanes. Still rooting for Derevyanchenko considering Murata is fighting this weekend and that rules him out.
