Critics highlight Joshua's form since his losses to Usyk, suggesting that he appeared gun-shy, lacking the aggression needed in the ring.

As the conversation unfolds, opinions diverge on the implications of Joshua's performance. Some argue that this may signal the end of his career, emphasizing the need for him to reassess his approach or contemplate retirement.

If Spence pre-accident turns up, he wins. If not, it's Crawford's all day long.

Canelo vs Golovkin III tonight.

I hope Golovkin wins, he deserves it. Daylight robbery to give Canelo the first fight. And I thought he won the second fight too, just, although no robbery to give it to Canelo.

Totally forgot about this. Don't think I'll watch it live.

I hope Golovkin rolls back the years and knocks him out. Can't see it though. Think he will lose a 9-3 or 8-4 type decision.

Canelo won a unanimous decision but the scorecards made it seem like a closer fight than it actually was.

GGG is a shadow of his former self. Even the first Canelo fight he was 35 years old but father time caught up with him here.

I hope he hangs his gloves up. One of my favourite fighters of all time. Seemingly effortlessly controlling the centre of the ring. An incredible fighter who it seems has had one fight too many

The British Boxing Board of Control has said the fight between Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jnr cannot go ahead after Benn failed a drugs test.

Promoters Matchroom Boxing and Wasserman Boxing released a joint statement on Wednesday saying Saturday's fight at the O2 in London would go ahead despite the fact Benn returned an "adverse analytical finding" for traces of a fertility drug.

But a statement from the board said: "On the evening of 4th October 2022, the Board of the British Boxing Board of Control Limited resolved that the contest between Chris Eubank Jnr. and Conor Benn scheduled to take place on 8th October 2022 is prohibited as it is not in the interests of Boxing. That was communicated to the Boxers and Promoters involved on the morning of 5th October 2022"

It remains unclear whether the fight will take place on Saturday.

I had a feeling something would happen to jeopardise this fight. I'm really looking forward to it as the build-up has been great. It's weird because I love Nigel but I am not a fan of his son whereas I love Eubank Jnr yet never was his father's biggest fan.
