Kambo has arrived

'Ferocious' has rocked up with his wife Rebecca. He looked completely locked in, making the sign of the cross as he entered the building, his father George Senior just behind him.

Painful end to our first fight

Imam Khataev has blasted Ricards Bolotniks with a TKO win in round six, finishing the bout with a right hook that landed to the kidney and dropped his opponent, who claimed he'd been illegally hit in the back.

He survived the count, only to get hit in the same spot almost straight away. How he got up from that is anyone's guess, but Khataev went straight back to the kidney shot and that was all she wrote.

Kambo and Loma may have already set two Aussie boxing records

First the fighters had a stare-down that went for more than three minutes on Thursday, with even former Aussie heavyweight champ Lucas Browne unable to separate them - then they went for even longer when they locked eyes at the weigh-in yesterday.
