I had Brahmer up on my card, think it was a broken hand. I wonder who Cleverly will look for now?

Dislocated elbow it seems.doubt he will want to see kovalev for awhile anyway.
Elbow mate, gets to fight the winner of the ward fight , I think
Rematch you'd think.
Brahmer was definitely ahead and there was no way Cleverly was winning that over twelve or by stoppage based on how it were going, but fair play to him - brave enough to go there, got a bit of luck.

I dont think he'll fancy it against Kovalev, that fight nearly ruined his career. I'd like to see a Fonfara rematch to be honest, was a great fight that, tonight's wasnt bad either.

the Kovalev rematch just wouldnt make any sense, its not like the first fight was competitive, If Kovalev does beat ward i'd love to see the Stevenson fight
brahmer deffo ahead, but.dont think he was happy with those body shots and the pace in the round before.

I don't disagree at all that we've got an issue here but Germany is worse IMO. Terry o Connor was pro the home fighter last week in the crolla fight and that's the ref . We've Defo had far too many moody scorecards though
Well that's that then.......
Tyson Fury: World heavyweight champion says he has retired
World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury says he has retired from boxing in an expletive-laden message on Twitter.
The Briton, 28, withdrew from a rematch with Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko, scheduled for 29 October, because of reported mental health issues.
Fury, who holds the WBA and WBO titles, faces a hearing into a charge for an alleged doping violation in November.
"Boxing is the saddest thing I ever took part in" read his tweet, adding: "I'm the greatest, and also retired."
Fury had been scheduled to earn the biggest purse of his career for his second fight with Klitschko at the Manchester Arena this month.
He postponed the original rematch against the Ukrainian, which was scheduled for July, after injuring an ankle in training.
He has been given 10 days by the World Boxing Organisation to provide detailed reasons for his second withdrawal.
Boxing pundit Steve Bunce told BBC Radio 5 live: "I think this is more than goading the media and the public. I think he is jumping the queue before people start taking his belts.
"Tyson Fury feels he has been overlooked, neglected, under-loved, but he has fuelled it by saying things which are stupid.
"He will probably come back in two years time but what type of boxer he will be then I have no idea."
Fury's announcement has opened up debate in the sporting world on social media, with England cricketer Ben Stokes tweeting that "Fury is an embarrassment to professional sport".
British promoter Eddie Hearn said Fury would never fight again, prompting his trainer and uncle, Peter Fury, to state that his nephew would return to the ring next year.
Fury is under investigation, having been charged by the UK Anti-Doping Agency (Ukad) in June, after traces of a banned substance were allegedly found in a urine sample.
The fighter has denied allegations of doping.
It has also been alleged he refused to give a sample, having been visited by Ukad. An athlete who refuses to take a drugs test can be banned for four years.
In November, Fury beat Klitschko on points in Germany - the 40-year-old's first loss since 2004 - to gain the WBA, IBF, WBO and IBO titles, with American Deontay Wilder holding the WBC belt.
Within two weeks Fury was stripped of the IBF title because he was unable to fight mandatory challenger Vyacheslav Glazkov - and that belt is now held by rival British world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.
