"Eubank round most definitely. O'Sullivan's tactics are crazy."

The left hook is golden for Chris Eubank Jr early on, twice he gets joy in round one. There's some showmanship as Gary O'Sullivan dances on the spot. A jab flies at his face but is an inch short. Cheeky stuff from the man known as 'Spike'.

Now some confident footwork from Eubank Jr as he begins to tease his man. There's a lot of bluster on show here but Eubank is the man backing it up with some substance so far.

A slick start from Chris Eubank Jr, he looks composed and slippery. Fast, a left hook catches Gary O'Sullivan. It was slappy but a warning signal...

And so to Michael Buffer's incredibly dramatic voice. He refrains from his 'let's get ready to rumble' trademark. That one is being saved for our next fight. 

Here we go...

So, England avoided Ireland in the Euro 2016 draw earlier but it will be difficult for Chris Eubank Jr, to avoid the hard-hitting Gary "Spike" O'Sullivan, who can definitely pack a punch. 

Both men hold losses to Billy Joe Saunders, who fights Andy Lee for the WBO world middleweight title before Christmas. 

But it's recent form that matters and Chris Eubank Jr ran over Tony Jeter in two rounds of his last fight. 

Meanwhile, Spike O'Sullivan spent the summer in the States, where his ruthless aggression saw him through in brutal three round displays in his last three fights. So prepare for an English-Irish dust-up in this one.  

More yellow shorts, Chris Eubank Jr stands motionless at the top of the ramp to the ring. A Union Jack draped over his shoulders, his father Chris Sr stands behind him.

Sometimes standing still can look intimidating and he's loving this as Dr Dre's 'Still DRE' tune plays out.

As he walks to the ramp, a female jumps to touch him - security intervene. Now to the ring jump, he's going to leap the top rope like his dad once did so famously... there it is, followed by a flurry of air punches.

Esteemed ring announcer Michael Buffer introduces Gary O'Sullivan. Now Buffer's words are often worthy of their own stage but this ring walk is very exuberant to say the least.

O'Sullivan, flanked by strobe lights, is wearing bright yellow shorts and he practically dances to the ring. I say dance, it's a shimmy, but my word it's some swagger he's fronting.

Can Chris Eubank Jr beat it...

Chris Eubank senior this week told the media his son will deal swiftly with Gary O'Sullivan but the 49-year-old never puts things simply does he?

"One day I put on the body suit because I wanted to feel Junior's power," said Eubank Sr. "He hit me with 10 shots and I dropped my hands and laughed from my stomach about how hurtful the punches were. I pity the man that stands toe-to-toe with Junior.

"Whichever route you choose, I think you're in for a cooking. I'll bring the pepper! If you box him, it'll be a one-horse race. If you fight him, there'll be fireworks."  

Not too sure you should be up watching tonight Harry. It could be a late finish and you have a game tomorrow.

WBA lightweight world champion Anthony Crolla on BBC Radio 5 live Sports Extra: "Anthony Joshua has an amazing story and look how calm he is for these big nights. In the space of fighting as a novice to going to Olympic gold in a few years and now packing out arenas. I reckon Joshua can win a world title and you will find very few boxing enthusiasts who will disagree.

"The speed of him is impressive and he has a great work ethic for a heavyweight which can be rare. If a fight ends early he goes backstage and does some pad work. The only thing that has not been ticked is if he can take a shot. We may find that out tonight."

Who fights twice in a week? Dereck Chisora, that's who.

As you can see from the image of Jakov Gospic, external trying to lift himself up on the ropes, Del Boy took care of business tonight. 

An uppercut in the third round secured the win, building on his triumph over Peter Erdos seven days ago. It's now 24 wins from 29 bouts for 31-year-old Chisora.

In a heated weigh in yesterday, Gary O'Sullivan rattled Eubank as he leaned in to kiss the WBA interim champion on the nose. 

Eubank flinched as their heads came together before they were separated by security. 

Has "Spike" O'Sullivan unsettled Eubank's nerves with that cheeky move?

"A straight right jab. It was a cracking punch. It would have put any lightweight on his backside. You cannot afford to make mistakes at this level of boxing."

Ismael Barroso is lifted into the air by his corner and he will be Anthony Crolla's challenger for the WBA lightweight title.

It was just a right jab - not a power shot - which knocked his man down. In fairness though, as jabs go, it was flush.

"He just stood there with no real movement. Barroso's a big puncher and Mitchell tried to fight back but the referee had no alternative."

This one is over, Kevin Mitchell is beaten.

Dear me, this is sad for the Briton who has an oxygen mask placed over his face after being taken back to the corner. He felt a right hand to the jaw and hit the deck. Up he got for some more but backed to the ropes he was punished as the punches flew in.

Referee Howard Foster says enough is enough and surely now, surely Kevin Mitchell's dreams of being a world champion are gone forever.
