Campbell-Coyle/Whyte-Costa Jr/Rose-Jones rematch and Burns - Sat/SKY

Dillian Whyte to face Brazilian on Sky Sports' live Hull bill | Boxing News | Sky Sports

"Whyte returned from a two-year ban for a positive drug test in November last year and has been inactive since February, partly due to a hand injury.
But if he gets beyond Costa Junior the 27-year-old will be on the bill when Joshua and Gary Cornish meet for the Commonwealth belt on September 12, and a fight with the winner awaits in the autumn.

"It’s great to be boxing back on Sky Sports again after a long absence," said the Brixton fighter, who is 14-0 and on a run of 10 straight knockouts. "It’s the best place to showcase your skills and I’m looking to put in a devastating performance against Costa Junior.
"The British title is a belt that I look forward to fighting for, and beating Anthony Joshua under a year after being back in the ring would be even better."

Have very little interest in Whyte. Hes not very good at all. Sky are going to try Hype the shit out of the Joshua Whyte rematch so little doubt Whyte will beat Costa Jr easily and early.

Rose Jones another fight im not keen on. Both should probably be retired by now.

You sound like a barrel of laughs :p ;D

I know where you are coming from and to be honest it's very difficult to see anything but a one sided hammering of Coyle by Campbell in almost any circumstances just hope they don't try and make it PPV.

Dont get me wrong I love my job but trading cards like this on a saturday night in work is just depressing :D

What's your job mate?

I backed Carson Jones to chin Rose last time. Will it be more of the same? Quite surprised he's roughly a 2/1 shot

The Hull bill isn't PPV but wouldn't be surprised if AJ-Whyte is in Dec. With Whyte fighting twice on SKY beforehand they will hype the shit out of this rivalry

I thought he was awful in the 1st fight. He was nearly gone in the 1st round himself in the first fight. Id expect Rose to stop him this time. ANd when Jones is getting stopped by a guy like Rose I think its time to retire.

Rose landed a few good shots in the first round but he can't punch. The first good shot he got caught with he was staggering around like a piss head.

Jones is "shot," so Rose is meant to stop him, but that was the same as last time.

Whyte is a decent fighter and can beat AJ.

Where did you hear that? I thought hes fighting Joshua at the end of the year, fighting Teper before that showdown is a risk but I wouldn't count of Whyte beating Teper in a good fight.

I got it completely ass about face.

I was on Whytes twitter and all it was was Whyte retweeting someone suggesting to Hearn about this potential matchup in September:-\

Fair enough, Ive got Whyte on facebook so I do keep an eye on what hes up to. Didn't hear anything about Teper. That Teper is a big puncher but he does look out of shape.

Youd think hed have a better ko percentage but from 17 fights its only 10 KO's.

I watched one of his recent fights and anyone whos not going to just stand and get hit is going to give him trouble. I think hed do well against Browne, Joshua would be a risk for ahearn because he hasnt even been tested yet. No one knows what hes like when having to fight someone off. We know he can go down feom a shot but without that pro experience its a risk against any punchers. As daft as it will sound to some, even Cornish is a risk.

Not the best Sky card but still some decent matchups. Campbell vs Coyle should be entertaining

The reason you don't know what Joshua is like fighting someone off is because so far he has annihilated all the former world/British/European champion/challengers that were meant to take him rounds.

The fact that guys like Kevin Johnson can so comfortably take a world rated, experienced professional like Tyson Fury 12 rounds - on two weeks notice, without breaking sweat - yet can't last 6 minutes with Joshua - with a full training camp - would suggest, to the non-deluded, the outstanding talent/potential AJ has.

We've seen the young amateur Joshua go down and then get straight back up again. There's more chance of this mature pro version of Joshua getting himself disqualified (vicious sod doesn't stop punching when bods are on the floor) than his "chin" holding him back.

Nice to see you'll give him some credit if he beats the "risky" Cornish.

Indeed.

Jones chinned Rose in the 1st round last time, granted he was losing the round at the time and maybe it was a bit premature. I still can't work out why Jones can't beat him again though

He's half the price he was last time for the stoppage but still

"Listen, Joshua ain't no bad man, he's from Watford, he went to private school, I'm from London, he can't survive from where I'm from" ;D (This fella is a character)

Only just noticed this post.

Johnson had no desire left. There is 2 and a half years and 3 losses difference between the Johnson Tyson faced and what Joshua faced. The Louis that beat Walcott was a world of difference away from the one that faced Marciano. The Holmes Tyson faced was apparently washed up compared to the version Spinks faced. Plenty of examples of rapid decline in fighters in less periods of time.

Yes as much as Cornish isnt really rated he is a risk in that it is the first live ambitious opponent he has faced and a better opponent for it than Joshuas previous. I have to admit I dont know much about Cornish but hes unbeaten and wanted this bout. Maybe hes just getting paid well because he didnt want to fight Whyte for the british?

Also, for a fighter to progress they need opponents with ambition. You can as feed many ex title challengers as you want but if their challenge was years and losses ago the relevance of any win isnt much. They are called journeymen and are really only record fillers as opposed to learning fights.

Its now getting interesting and hopefully we see someone push Joshua. Im not against him im just not sold on him yet as he hasnt had to prove anything yet but now come some live bodies.

Campbell too talented for Coyle

Campbell I feel is a World Champion in waiting a very talented fighter, this is a domestic dust
up he will beat Coyle Rose well is about domestic level no more,! Whyte is big and strong but
when he meets AJ again good night Mr Whyte.

There's been a vicious streak come out of Campbell in the build-up to this fight. I think he's going to batter Coyle. Quick.

Rds 1-3 is a 4/1 shot. Rds 4-5 are 9/1.

Still have no idea why Carson Jones is the underdog against Rose. He didn't even have a trainer last time, this time Abel Sanchez is with him. He has better form, chin, power and Rose has to mentally deal with being chinned out first time around. The only thing he has against him is being away from home and natural size. I can't see why this fight should be much different to the first?

Jones KO 5/2.

I fancy Campbell inside 3 rounds tonight. Coyle is levels below him and this won't be a close fight.

Looking forward to seeing Dillian Whyte tonight. I didn't really get a good sense of what he was all about on the Frampton undercard because they guy he fought just kinda gave up.

Rose and Jones is the interesting fight. I think Jones will stop him again, but not as quickly as before.

can someone send me a stream? i hate to be a pest. thanks, gents.

Ignore the first message, 2nd stream I sent you is very good. Recheck your pm.

Had Ward died his hair? Pretty messy but Ward has landed a couple big ones already.

Not a Ward fan. I don't see anything special in what he does.

Luis Collazo could win this if he goes back to southpaw

So has anyone seen Whytes opponent before?

I've seen him against Price and getting put to sleep against Parker.

Whyte could do with Ironing him

I like that Whyte has employed Jonathan Banks (Klitschko's trainer) as his new trainer. Just shows he has ambition and is willing to learn new things. Him n AJ should be a really good fight.

Dillian "The Body Snatcher"? Thought he was "The Villain"?

Me too. First knockdown hit him on the glove. Second knockdown looked like he was considering going down anyway.

He took a good clump and thought fuck this I know how much dough i'm getting.

Bet they make the AJ fight PPV.

Did not look a concussive couple of punches but those temple shots are deceptive especially in the Heavyweight division.
I just see AJ banging him out quick when they meet, he's slow and seems easy to hit Whyte

Have Burns by stoppage in a little acca, the cunts have made it an 8 rounder

Pull him out. Thanks.
