The scoring so far are spot on; Selby landing left hook easily and now throwing the right hand more. I think he may stop Brunker if one lands flush.

Need to check Brunker's record because he looks miles short of being suitable for a world title eliminator

Selby's lack of power is a worry if/when he steps up

Ask Swifty if Lee has any power.

Know what you mean, But I get the feeling when he actually does plant his feet a bit there's a decent dig in there. It's just that he is mobile so much of the time.

Brunker is far, far worse than I was expecting.

This is 50-45 Selby. Each round a carbon copy of the last. Interested to see if Selby feels the need to drive Brunker back soon.

I think he actually enjoys using his boxing ability. His dig is better than his recent stoppage suggests - in my humble opinion.

Seems a bit of a mismatch now hope he goes for the stoppage soon and makes a statement

That wasn't about the power though, the placement of it was perfect

I dont want to take anything away from Selby but Brunker doesn't look like he should be competing in a final eliminator for a world title. He's slow, lacks any kind of power, little boxing brain, so on and so on. Selby is boxing well that aside though.

Having seen Gradovich and having not been impressed with him either, I can see Selby becoming the IBF world champion. Gradovich is probably the weakest champion in the division in truth. Walters, Donaire, Gonzalez are bigger tests.

Christ on a bike this is boring as fornicate. To think I even entertained getting a few tickets for this.

Shutout for Selby so far.

No doubt Hearn will be in hype mode overdrive in the post fight interview.

He is a boxing promoter. That's probably on the first couple of pages of their job description.
