Will likely be Canelo if he wins nov 6

Usyk for me - his performance was exceptional.

Hard to argue with Alvarez. Tremendous performances from both Fury and Usyk, but each has only fought once.

Your right the under card is very poor. The Whyte vs Wallin fight is a good one.

Poor undercard for a main event that has a rather obvious winner - imo if Canelo loses it will be more of a shock than Joshua losing to Usyk.

The fight is being shown on BT Sport Box Office in the UK for £19.95 - I won't be buying it though simply because the fight doesn't hold any intrigue as far as I'm concerned - Canelo is a huge favourite.

I will pay for this fight but that's a pretty disappointing undercard. I didn't love Floyd but you can never argue he didn't put on stacked cards for his PPV. Everyone ate when Floyd fought. Very little haggling over cash. That said I do believe he ducked fighters in his prime and I will never consider him a top 10 P4P.

This is one of the problems when a fighter has too much influence. We've seen similar with Joshua previously. Allowing fighters to 'own the show' as Hearn describes is wrong. Fighters should fight, Managers manage, Trainers train, Promoters promote, etc.

Marshall has the potential to be the best female fighter of the lot - so exciting to watch.
