Again, some very interesting cards coming up. Anxious for the Joe Smith fight. And tomorrow's junior welter on DAZN.

Great info. Thanks Mr. Rafael. I'm curious who you think the best boxing commentators are in your opinion. Mine are, Dan Rafael, Al Bernstein, Joe Tessitore, Barry Thompkins, Steve Albert, Bob Papa, Tim Ryan, Brian Kenny.

Apparently Jay Harris is still working at an Amazon warehouse in the UK as a PPT driver (powered pump truck) and still only gets time off for his relatively short training camps for fights.

I had hoped the lad would have been able to go pro full time after such a good performance against Martinez - but I think relative inactivity due to the pandemic hasn't allowed it.

Maybe winning the IBF eliminator against Sandoval will help him - good luck to Jay.
