The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 19 - Week 8

The light-heavyweight title match-up from Montreal between Adonis Stevenson and visiting Tony Bellew tops the bill this week. We've also got an over/under option for this one, as we do for the main supporting bout between Sergey Kovalev and Ismayl Sillakh. On the same show is a welterweight clash between unbeaten Kevin Bizier and veteran Jo Jo Dan.

Juan Carlos Sanchez takes on visiting Zolani Tete in a junior-bantamweight bout from Mexico. Plus we've got a well matched 105lb bout from the Philippines between local fighter Merlito Sabillo and 21-year-old Carlos Buitrago of Nicaragua. Rounding out the line-up is a heavyweight match-up from the UK, with Dereck Chisora taking on Ondrej Pala.
