If I was head of F1, day 1 I’d get Monaco cancelled. It’s not even a race, it’s an exhibition event.

Monaco, Saudi, Qatar, Zandvoort, Las Vegas, Miami all binned for a start.

A Brit in a McLaren and Ferrari/McLaren from 1st to 4th and pulling away from the rest. Is this 2007?

Alpine's trying to take each other out on the first lap as well. That half a lap had the most excitement of any Monaco Grand Prix for god knows how many years.

That's a race ban for KMag surely?

I know one thing. That Bam Bam/ Estrada fight has the making of a classic. 

Got Bam late stoppage on that one, then hopefully go up to Bantam, pick up a title there and work his way up to super-bantam. And hopefully get a Bam vs Inoue in about 18 months time if the Saudi's are willing to put up the money.

Takes nothing away from what he's achieved. A absolute certainty for the Hall of Fame.

No doubt, 18-0 and becoming undisputed is something very very special. 

But time to hang them up I feel.

Jack won that with the more eye - catching work. Taylor has definitely lost something from what he once was. And, I still don't see Catterall getting anywhere near the achievements of Taylor. 

Since he became undisputed 3 years ago, he's fought 3 times and lost 3 times (twice officially).

His lifestyle has caught up with him, too much boozing etc.

Justice done. 

Sometimes boxing p***** me right off, but the last two weekends have been great.

8-4 or at worst 7-5 Catterall.

Got it 5-3 Catterall after 8. Great fight.

Good finish from Clarke, but there's a hell of lot to work on if he's ever going to go above domestic level.

Next up, the main event. Cannot wait

Best quail of the year done, no point bothering with the race. Onto Montreal.

Perez and Alonso out in Q1. 

18th for Perez 

Just been watching some of FP3 at Monaco. Seems like quali could be even more of a mess than usual. 

Cars going slow on the racing line in the tunnel, cars going slow and weaving after exiting the tunnel with cars on quick laps right behind and Rascasse becoming even more of a car park than usual. Just asking for a massive accident to happen.

Thought Taylor may have looked drained at the weight considering he's had a lot of trouble making the weight for the last few years, but he looks really good and not drained in the slightest.

Think it's got the potential to be a really dirty fight.

Garcia's B sample has also come back positive for PED's unsurprisingly. Hopefully that now means the commission involved can ban him for a long long time.

It will be amusing to see what they title the clash as ‘ rumble in the care home’ 

It’s incredible Chisora has made a career out of not being knocked out by Klitchsco 

'Rumble who ends up in a vegetative state first'

who in their right mind, 'War' Chisora ffs. 

Joyce could not shift PPV even on the up  

It's been announced. It's an absolute disgrace. Chisora is 40, has 13 defeats and is showing massive signs of CTE. Joyce got stopped twice brutally by Zhang and is 38. Disgrace of a fight.

will laugh if it is PPV (actually will cry) 

Wouldn't put it past Warren trying to sell it as PPV.

It's headlining the O2 as well. Will be lucky to do 2-3k tickets.

Rumours that Joyce vs Chisora is going to be announced for July. Just when boxing is going through its best spell in years, it shoots itself in the foot with absolute s***e like that.

Can't see any rematch in October for Fury v Usyk if at all this year. Definitely don't see Bivol v Berterbiev on the same card which is a main event in itself tbh. 

Some something earlier where Warren has said that Fury will take the rematch and it's being targeted for October 12th which will coincide with the big Saudi sport washing event, sorry I mean 'Riyadh Season'.

Regardless of whenever Bivol vs Berterbiev happens, I just want it to happen.

damn. how have I missed that news ffs 

Reports that it will end up being rescheduled for October. Might even land on the Usyk vs Fury rematch card.

We are being quite spoiled at the moment what with last weeks unification bout, this and also the next week 5 v 5 card with the best match up of the lot IMO Bivol v Berterbiev

Berterbiev pulled out a few weeks ago due to injury.

Still a cracking card though.

Ball vs Ford

Wilder vs Zhang

Sheeraz vs Williams

etc
