Barca do still owe money for Malcom, but to a 'financial institution' not to Bordeaux. Presumably Bordeaux cashed in on the money up front with a bank because of their financial issues.

Expensive Václav Drobný.

Adjusting to the move up from middleweight... by fighting middleweights. Nice one, Ed. Anyway, looking forward to McDonnell-Kameda II tonight. I fancy Jamie to squeeze another close decision.

Sounds like the Carl Johanneson fight which took place on the Haye-Maccarinelli card.

I don't really think you can count a stoppage based on swelling against his chin. There aren't many but I think the real key is that those 2 didn't abuse their bodies like Hatton has in his time off.

Hatton will face Vyacheslav Senchenko in his comeback bout. He looked awful against Paulie, but it's not too bad an opponent I suppose. Munroe-Quigg rematch on the undercard though.

Could be worse, Jesse Owens was reduced to racing against horses to make money. It's a different thing entirely. Jesse Owens was an amateur sprinter, Roy Jones jr has (conservatively) earned $100m from boxing and given how good he was at his peak, he will always be able to get a gig in the media talking about the sport. He doesnt need the money. I'm not sure about that. It was reported not long ago that he's got a very big tax bill. The kind that I'm not sure his gig at HBO covers. How anyone could spunk that amount of money is beyond me though.

Chris Eubank Jr also fights tonight away in Denmark. Channel 5 are going to show it on 12:30am on Tuesday. Unfortunately Lee Selby has been pulled out of his fight tonight by the Doctor as he has flu.

The fight sold well, that's why both sides were talking it up. Although that's looking less likely now with Junior testing positive for Marijuana. Another example of his lack of professionalism. A good night ahead of us tomorrow with Burns vs Mitchell and Frampton vs Molitor. I think Burns will win a fairly comfortable decision. I think Mitchell will have a lot of problems closing the gap. I don't like Molitor's chances against Frampton. He looked very faded last time out, and got a bit of a gift really. He should stick around for the final bell though. Selby vs Lindsay and McCloskey vs Perez aren't bad fights either!

Buster Douglas netted $48K for KO Mike Tyson, and Tyson made something like $8M for getting knocked out...sad. You don't get what you deserve in boxing, you get what you negotiate.

Lopez was an awfully matched opponent. I can't give Canelo any credit for the win really. What makes it worse is that Lopez only got $212k, compared to Alvarez's $2m. I would have loved to have seen him in against Williams. What a shame.

Chavez coming in at 158 is very interesting.

How about this for a mad story...
