Thought O'Connor could have let that go a bit longer, but Darch exposed a few holes in Joshua tonight.

And Halling is talking shit again, what a surprise.

I think the question is whether he's going to be a Lennox, a Price or an Audley.

The big question is...... Why did Darch keep his hands down at his waist? He ain't RJJ FFS!

There's a big gap between Lennox and David Price...I think he'll wind up being somewhere between there.

I thought Darch did well to stay on his feet, he took at least 5 big rights. Who necks for Joshua?

I thought Rees deserved both as well.

Yes. He's built a lot like Wilder, although bulkier up top.
His calves are quite small. He has big quads though, hard to see given the length of his shorts.

Something isn't right here, there never used to be this amount of bad decisions, the board should be taking a close look at these shows with what's going on.
what fights? I've fallen behind a bit on the UK scene.

He was slipping most of the shots, would have been better with his hands up but he didn't take many clean shots until the end of the first round.

Halling thinks Darch is going to get the picture of him and Joshua framed, why would Darch do that? It's a picture of him and an overhyped 4 fight novice.

He's already too muscular so the fact he's put more weight in isnt great.

Fine under an Eddie run Matchroom.

In regards to Quigg and Barker, were they not already "around" world level as opposed to being produced/developed under matchroom

Yeah but there's british guys who could provide more of a challenge. Regarding Wilder, that's a complete joke.
