[Andrey]

Any update on this fight?

[mikewl]

Halfway through the 3rd round.

Barnes with the cleaner more effective work, Morrison having some success though.

Barnes likely took the first two.

[mikewl]

3rd round was closer, Barnes looks to have a bloodied nose.

I would still give the 3rd to Barnes though.

Barnes also has a cut from a clash to the side ofhis right eye.

[mikewl]

Morrison gaining in confidence, he may have taken the 4th round.

Barnes struggling a bit with Morrisons pressure.

5th was a close one, could go either way, Morrison with the pressure and Barnes with some cleaner work.

[mikewl]

Barnes looked better in the 6th landing some nice one two combos, Morrison landed a nice hook near the end but the round likely went to Barnes.

I was going to ask for a RBR so thanks.

[nufc16]

morrison finished that 7th pretty well, but still goes to barnes for me.

have him about 5-2 up atm.

[mikewl]

7th Round is a close one, back and forth a bit, Barnes with the cleaner work again but Morrison landed a few nice ones.

Probably a Barnes round.

[mikewl]

8th Round, not much in the first half, Morrison more busy, not much to seperate them this round, even round.

Looking at the replay Barnes may have edged it.

[mikewl]

Halfway through the 9th Morrison landing about 3 or 4 clean shots to Barnes head, probably his best part of the fight.

Morrison's round.

[nufc16]

9 another tougth one to score. morrison landed some good shots, but barnes still landed more. probably give it to morrison for the heavier shots landed

[mikewl]

10th Round, (Jim Watt has Barnes up by 3 right now)

Morrison having some success coming forward, barnes firing back with some one twos, Morrison catching Barnes again.

Morrisons round.

[nufc16]

10th morrisons for me. his only truely clear round of the fight so far. think barnes need 1 round more to be absolutely sure of victory. morrison needs the last 2. clearly aswell.

[mikewl]

11th Round, Barnes with a good left early in the round, Barnes landing some nice jabs, Morrison with a good right, Barnes finishing with the cleaner work.

Barnes round.

[mikewl]

12th Round, Barnes stepping up the pace and putting up some good work, Morrison still coming forward, Barnes moving well this round.

Barnes round, Barnes should get the decision.

[nufc16]

barnes close but clear on points. thought he won it by about 3 or 4 rounds.

[stujones]

Might sound harsh, but was I watching an episode of Can't fight, won't fight.

Barnes should get this, but I kind of hope Anderson gets it.

[mikewl]

116 113 x 2
116 112

Unanimous win for Barnes.

Does Ainslie Harriot host Cant fight wont fight?

[stujones]

Well I thought all 3 Light Welter showcased today (Morrison, Barnes, Bami) looked pretty poor again.

[hitman_hatton1]

Well I thought all 3 Light Welter showcased today (Morrison, Barnes, Bami) looked pretty poor again.

yeah.

barnes would never win a european title boxing like he did tonight.

imagine trying to win in italy like that.

lynes beats barnes.

no doubts tbh.

[THEBUTCH]

Yeah, that fight was a real come down from last week's British title fight (Marsh-Pickering).

We've got a quite a few Lightwelters at the moment who just arn't prepared to fight for the full duration without spoiling. The ten stone division is usually one of our most exciting but the Barnes', Nigel Wright's, Barry Morrison's etc let the side down.
