    Default Kevin Mitchell v Jorge Linares WBC Lightweight Title - O2 London May 30th

    Can't wait for this one, i really want Mitchell to win this and think he will as he's fighting so well now and definitely deserves it - could be his final chance to get a title so he'll be so up for this and bring an army of fans as he's literally fighting on his doorstep.

    That is a pretty solid bill. Should be fun.

    Great fight and very good card. I still have problems understanding how Ricky beat Kev.

    Terrific fight, last chance saloon for two uber talented under achievers. I'd back Linares, he is or was pretty clearly a bit more gifted imo, but he's got that off button on his chin and Mitchell looked very good in his last fight, although against a guy not in the same league.

    Don't think Joshua will struggle with Johnson, who is basically a sparring partner with no output. I can see why they want it for him as he's never gone past mid rounds and all, but Johnson doesn't beat anybody and is painful to watch. Would love to see Joshua in a proper crossroads fight, someone like Manuel Charr or Wach, hell BRiggs or Tarver even, just someone kinda dangerous.

    This is a proper boxing card. 2 Brits going for World Titles in very competitive fights and the continuing emergence of Joshua.
    Mitchell is totally focussed nowadays and I really hope he wins because he has tons of skill and heart.
    Selby is another mega talented fighter and I hope he takes his chance . Could either be a glorious night for British boxing or very disappointing. Could literally go either way, but with home advantage?
    Hey Ross, do you still think Joshua won't fight Johnson next ?

    Excellent card. Three seriously good/intriguing fights.

    Mitchell looked the bollocks last time, but can he be trusted to not bottle it? A fight between two world-rated talented dodge pots

    Really good fight. Complete 50/50 fight for me. Linares is top class, really good skills but Mitchell showed us how good he can be in his last fight. Really looking forward to this, need selby to make me some doh

    You backed Selby at 9/4 for a title - make him a 1/3 shot for this fight. High five....

    A very compelling card. Linares vs Mitchell should be a fire-fight. I think Gradovich may be too seasoned?
