Romeo Romaeo stopped Michael Mooney in the 5th,Romao was exact same as I've seen him in every other fight,inaccurate bursts and taking far too much in return

Cracking stoppage though,Romaeo caught Mooney with a peach of a right hook out of nowhere which sent Michael staggering back against the ropes where the ref stepped in with the follow up flurry from Romeo

Cracking right hook
That's a good result. Mooney comes to win, is fit and hard as nails. Picked up a few upset wins on his travels.

Corcoran wins 78-76,he might be predictable and one dimentional and he's not a massive puncher but he's strong as an ox and doesn't stop throwing or take a backward step,respect to Jones, he's a tough lad who had the odd success

Mitchell Smith vs Antonio Horvatic coming up

Did you know that all of Antonio Horvatic's wins have been at the Joker Gym , and of those 6 wins the oppnents have a combined record of 3-27. WTF is Mitchell going to learn here tonight?
I'm rapidly losing interest in these undercards that pitch decent home boxers against these imports. You don't take much notice of these wins when reported in BN, as its so hard to know if any of these imports are any good.

Smith has some lovely moves and picks his shots expertly, it'll be good to see him in s proper fight.

BBBoC should hang their heads for allowing that to go ahead

Smith KO's Horvatic in 3 and it was a beauty of a 3 punch combo,left right left,ref didn't even bother to count

Welcome addition to a pretty boring card so far

Yeah the knockout a highlight reel, but look at the level of the opponent. He's never won a fight outside of his home gym

I agree. Heavy KO but hard for me to give Smith much credit considering how bad his opponent is. The previous time I saw him he was in with a Hungarian who could fight a bit and he didn't impress me.

Yeah I've never even heard of the guy, nor the dude he just beat, but that is definitely what you call doing it in style.

Really looking forward to the main event but prospect vs hopeless import match-ups just don't do it for me, regardless of how heavy the KO's may be.

Ovill's actually admitted he hasn't got a fan base

Lloyd Ellett v Raimonds Sniedze

Never seen Ellett before
