Great Expectations - Joshua and Bam

The week in which Anthony Joshua went nose to nose with Daniel Dubois and squabbled with Carl Froch was also when Bam Rodriguez confirmed his superstar qualities when he trounced the great Juan Francisco Estrada.

Yet it was Joshua’s declaration of help for Ringside Charitable Trust that was arguably the greatest statement of a busy period.

Elsewhere, the WBC insist that the comeback of 45-year-old Manny Pacquiao is a terrific idea, Teofimo Lopez went 12 rounds again and Sunny Edwards returned to winning ways.

It was also a week that celebrated the anniversary of Steve Collins scrapping with the remnants of Nigel Benn in 1996.
