Michael Pass doesn't seem to get much work on Sky or allegedly any more which is a shame. I always thought he was a very good MC.

So who's planning on an all-nighter for the Mayweather fight? I'm in 2 minds - pretty much always stay up to watch Floyd, but the dire undercard is making me consider recording & watching in the morning.

Eggington landing a lot but missing a few too so might have an effect on him fitness wise late on.

That was a great 3rd. Eggington has Vassell all over the ring, but Vassell managed to stay upright. Eggington tired towards the end.

Eggington has a small cut in a really awkward spot above the left eye too.

Topsy turvy fight. Vassell now on top strongly in round 5. Eggington looks very tired. Can Vassell finish the job in round 6 or is he knacked as well?

Vassell with a really good 5th. Good fight, expect it to be a good 2nd half of the fight.

A scrappier 6th. Vassell doing well with body shots but Eggington is game also. I'd give that round to Vassell.

I live East Coast US & will be home from work around 12:15am. I'm expecting to catch either the last few rounds of Floyd doing his kitten with a ball of wool impression or the aftermath of Maidana getting disqualified.

Would like this to be Vassell last fight... he looks shop worn. Don't want him to become a stepping stone.

Hahaha. Nice one.

Can't understand why they keep saying Eggy is the one in charge.

Hmm not sure about that stoppage. Vassell was definietly in trouble and he didnt at the stoppage but it seemed like it could of gone on a little longer.

Because he's well in front and has just stopped Vassell, he dominated the first 4 rounds, Vassell looked really sluggish, no spark or drive in any of his work.
