Pretty much pulverised the bloke, though Acosta was tough obviously. Dropped him twice in the 6th with body shots, the second one he didnt even try and make the count for. He was sprawled out.

Smith won in the 6 th he had the fellow backing up for the most and had to duck some swings, he pressured Acosta to the ropes constantly and got him with a left hook to the body and a left uppercut though it looked to be the body punch that did it.

Another scouse Hype job, is there any other kind of scouse fighter?

He does look good, but it is an very competitive division.

What? He isn't exactly disappointing. And if you listened to him he always diffuses the hype.

Would love to see him in with Mundine soon. He would put that moron on his backside and will be hilarious to watch.

Etches first round stoppage. Opponent's corner threw in the towel just before the end of the first round.

It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Etches ended up signed by Hearn.

If that guy scored 9 knock outs from 10 fights then his level of opposition must be unbelievably horrific.

Yeah, what a terrible stoppage. The corner could've waited two seconds and talked to Mendes between rounds before deciding to stop it or not. He didn't even go down. Sure he was barely throwing, but people have come back from much worse rounds than that. That was barely a fight, Mendes probably threw 5-10 punches.

Thats what I was thinking watching it. Etches looked very powerful no doubt but Mendes was pretty bad.

I agree, it seems to be a South American thing these days. Etches did well though and showed good variety.
