Meybe English?

Thats what i heard

[GlobalBox]

English would be 10 so not sure whats going on but Frankie said its definately 12.

Isn't it meant to be a Welterweight British title eliminator?

I think most British eliminators are over 10 rounds, but maybe they can be over 12 if that is what is agreed, even without a title being on the line.

Think final eliminators are over 12 but any old eliminator is over 10 - thats the way I remember it but perhaps I'm wrong

Fury vs McDermott was over 12, so I think that might be the case.

Gavin vs Lomax can't be a final eliminator, can it?

[steve689]

I thought they would use the fact Lomax won Prizefighter as a way of building this one up. I don't think this will be a contest to be honest.

By the way, non-title 12 rounders used to be common...just not for some time.

[whicker]

Title doesn't matter, it's all about the fight...

.,.e.e..e.e.e.e.e

Is this the thread for discussing it?

[whicker]

Also, it's scored by judges...???

[MightyWarrior]

Frankie looks pure CLASS. A natural.

Really? What is going on?

That was back when all titles were fought over 15 rounds.

Who knows? Both men fought at welterweight, maybe somebody came up with a title name after the fight.
