Verdict
Both of these men have losses to Michael Hunter on their record, but Martin Bakole is an exciting fighter with great power and can get the knockout here. The 33-year-old Kuzman was down in the fifth round against Hunter and managed to go the distance, so he is durable and a late stoppage is the value call.

What is the best bet for Fury v Wach? Fury to win by decision

Verdict
Dillian Whyte needed the judges' scorecards to see off Wach in Saudi Arabia last year and the Polish fighter may well see out this contest also, albeit after being completely outclassed by Hughie Fury. Fury is not the heaviest puncher about, but can land plenty scoring shots and win on points here.

What is the best bet for Joshua v Pulev? Joshua to win by stoppage in Rounds 7-12

Verdict
Unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua faces IBF mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev in his first bout since regaining his titles from Mexican Andy Ruiz Jr in Saudi Arabia. AJ has been out of the ring for 12 months and will be weary not to make the same mistakes he made against Ruiz in their first fight and get caught when looking for the knockout. A tentative start from both fighters is expected, but, once finding his rhythm, Joshua can break his 39-year-old opponent down and get the late stoppage.

What is the best bet for Golovkin v Szeremeta? Golovkin to win by stoppage

Verdict
Gennadiy Golovkin makes a mandatory defence of his IBF title against Kamil Szeremeta and the Kazakhstani fighter's can hold onto his title in style. GGG is eyeing a third fight with Saul Alvarez and he is unlikely to let that slip here. Szeremeta is undefeated with a record of 21-0 and five knockouts, but has not fought anyone of Golovkin's class.

Verdict
Undefeated Callum Smith will be a stern test for favourite Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez, but one the exciting Mexican can pass. Canelo is a multi-weight world champion and renowned for his brutal body shots and slick skills. The size and strength of Smith will cause problems, but a points win appeals.
